Good Morning Girls,

Sorry to have missed Bee last evening. How did it go?! Did you get a quilt sandwich made? What exciting Bee things happened?

I am busy here! My first night back & I have 2 in-patients. Makes me worry what this year has in store...?!

I have to go! Enjoy your day.

Good Morning Girls,

Today is my last day shift for a while!!! I start back to my regular night shift routine on Wednesday. It will feel nice to be back in sync with Scott. : )

Does anyone have any fabulous plans for the Labor Day weekend? I work on Monday, so that limits us. I am planning to go to Winterthur on Saturday. I REALLY want to see their quilt exhibit of 17th - 19th century quilts! I hear it's exceptional & that many of the quilts have never been displayed before. If anyone is interested in joining me, just let me know.

How 'bout the 2nd Annual QM BBQ?!?!?! Wasn't it a BLAST!!! A HUGE THANKS TO BILL & MAUREEN!!! : ) Mo, Bill, Billy, Chris & Matt - THANKS for having ALL of us over to your place, for organizing the shindig, & for allowing us to use your pool too! AWESOME job!!! You guys ROCK!!!

So/SEW, the BBQ folks & food were FAB! Thanks everyone for participating! It was a bit hot, but better than last year's rain & cool temps. THIS year we got to use the pool! Mike did a GREAT job @ the grill! I especially liked the grilled eggplant!!! LA - your 2nd Annual CAKE was SUPER! : )

I hope Lois & George had a nice anniversary celebration. We were thinking of them. Sorry you missed the BBQ!

No Bee this evening. It's tomorrow evening @ Mo's. We are continuing to work on the Autism quilt. Are we going to layer & baste it tomorrow, girls?

Alright, I gotta get BUSY! Enjoy your day & "talk" with you again later!

Hey - it's working!! I'm no longer expired! What a nice feeling....So much Quiltmama fun in the last week - the sweat shop and the BBQ - we are a busy, fun group. Lots of upcoming stuff too. Hope to see some folks on Wednesday at Consuelo's. Enjoy this lovely weather even though it's Monday. Piece...

Good Evening All!

Geez, it's been a week since I've blogged...?! Can that be right? Sorry to those of you who "look" regularly!!!

Jean - I checked the blog settings, & can't find that your invitation as co-author expired...?! I don't see anything to re-set. Can you try it again, or send me the email you rec'd about your "authorship" expiring, please? Hmmm, I don't get it...

Well, SEW many things have happened this week!!! Should I blog it all @ once, or in a couple posts?! Let's do a couple posts. That way, you get used to frequenting the site, again, & I don't bore you to death with one GIANT blah, blah, blog!!! ; )

Let's "talk" about our Wednesday Bee! EVERYONE was there!!! All 10 of us, & some kids too! There was pizza & SEWING!!! With 6 sewing machines, 2 pressing stations & a quilt design engineer or 2, we had a sewing sweat shop! The pace was frenetic & the sewing frenzied!!! In 2+ hours, the Autism Quilt top was stitched together!!! Hooray for the Q'Mama's!!! I can FEEL the LOVE!!!

Thanks to Marianne's Joanna, & her Bill for being brave enough to take ALL the kids to the Putt-Putt! That was no small feat, even for a pair of teachers! ; ) And, let's hear it for Matt, who got a HOLE IN ONE!!! He got to KEEP his RED golf ball!!! Kudo's kiddo!!! : )

I think we even squeezed in a little show & tell, & conversation during Bee. Let's see...there were some Schlep bags, a pumpkin wall hanging, & what else, girls?

Thanks for ALL the fun!!! This Wednesday we're meeting @ Mo's again, to get the quilt sandwiched, is that right? Mo, what do you think about making the label? You could borrow any of my books & pens, if you'd be interested. Plus, I can give you the plain fabric label.

We pulled SEW much power on Wednesday night, that on Saturday, the transformer was melting... Stay tuned for more...! ; )

Have a pleasant evening. Tomorrow is Monday. Monday, Monday. Nah, nah. Nah, nah, nah, nah. C'mon, sing it with me...

Hey, girls....happy rainy Tuesday! Are we all set for tomorrow night? Consuelo - do we need to bring anything beyond our sewing supplies? Looking forward to it.....see everyone around 6:00, correct? Pam - are you working days this week? Ugh! Peggy - do you go back next week to get ready? How is Meghan doing? Is she getting used to speaking English again? See y'all....have a nice day. Piece....

Good Evening Girls,

Thanks for blogging!!! It was SO/SEW fun to read!!! Tuesday's Bee sounded like a real stitch!!! : ) Sorry to have missed it. Glad if I could add a little pandemonium, uh, paMdemonium to the gather with just a phone call! ; )

Meghan Mary Carney is HOME!!! : ) HIP, HIP HOORAY!!! Glad for the email, Peggy, thanks! I DON'T know how you Mom's do it...?!

I too am home! I had a FABULOUS time @ Sewing Camp!!! : ) I learned a LOT! We were BUSY!!! I need a nap! ; )

I return to work starting tomorrow. Work IS a 4 letter word. I know this doesn't sound very nice, but I'm glad rain is forecasted for the upcoming week. It makes going back a bit easier...

I will write more another time. Looking forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday @ Mo's. I have to catch up!!!

Piecefully, Pam

Good morning, girls! What a beautiful Saturday morning! I stopped by Peggy's last night and saw her quilt - it's beautiful.....a Turning Twenty in lots of tans, browns, greens and a soft, floral backing - very nice and completed in an impressive 24 hour span. Wishing Peggy a great day - Meghan is coming home. Enjoy every minute. When is our Pam coming home? Looking forward to hearing sewing camp tales on Wednesday at our super Bee (and perhaps before that on the blog). See everyone there.....savor the weekend! Piece...
