It's Far Too Late

Yes, it's far too late to be up blogging.  It's 12:05 a.m. and I just finished cutting kits for a quilted placemat class I'm teaching tomorrow.  They're really cute and will look good at Christmas. 

Night All! 


 This is a "Little Bits" pattern by Cindi Edgerton.  I didn't put the rick rac in but on another set I made, I did some decorative stitches in metallic gold - turned out great!

Go! Cutter

I am so glad to see Lavender Ridge is going to have a Go! draw.  I've gotten my cutter but haven't had time to try it yet.  I'm going to make a Christmas list that includes many of the dies as I have lots of ideas I'd like to try.  I'm also going to look for other bloggers who like the Go! cutter - it's a whole new world out there!  Go to lavenderridge.blogspot.com to enter the draw.

So, keep on quilting!  Chat again soon.

Christmas Table Topper

Hi everyone.  A quick update.  Here is my latest creation. It's a great Christmas Table Topper quilted with metallic gold thread.  I made one of these from Autumn fabrics also and sold out all the kits I had.  I've just had to order a second lot of fabrics for the Christmas version.  It was a great project to practice mitered borders.  Better go now - have lots of projects on my list.

Home Again

Well, here I am, home again.  We had a wonderful holiday but now back at it. We went to some wonderful quilt shops so my stash is building and building.  I have to mention one of those shops - it's called The Door Mouse in Bettsville, Ohio - can you imagine - over 15,000 bolts of fabric.  Talk about kids in a candy shop - it was great!  If you're ever in the area, make sure you visit this store.  Better go now - have some cutting to do.
