Becky, Karin, Brenda, Cindi and I invaded Sweet Home Quilt Co. (aka Bad Melisa's) on Saturday. We talked and laughed and bought more fabric for projects-in-the-works and someday-I'll-make-this projects and had a blast. I don't have a photo of my goodies because my camera batteries are dead. I bought some backings for quilts from the sale room and the new Blackbird Designs book "When the Cold Wind Blows" (I really didn't need to get this book because I already have 2 long and involved applique projects from 2 of their previous books but oh well...). We then invaded a local restaurant and talked and laughed some more. A great day with friends. Thanks Becky for arranging this and thanks to Melisa for having the best quilt shop!
Sounds like a perfect day out with quilty friends! I'm going into serious LQS withdrawal lately! I need to make a trip soon!! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. It was a wonderful day. Hope that you are having a fabulous visit with your family. Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm new to your blog (saw your link on your comment to quiltville chat) :) and I just wanted to say I love this photo you shared of the quitls thrown over the front porch of your LQS!
ReplyDeleteI've been hosting a miniature 9 patch swap all year and that quilt with the 9's and snowballs looks like the perfect inspiration to putting some of my blocks together. :) I'm currious as to if you remember if her snowball blocks used all the same color or were scrappy.
Love from Texas and Happy 2009! ~bonnie
