I've been busy.......

Mar 26, 2007 8 Replies

Hi, all! I have been reading the group on a fairly regular basis but since I got my new long-arm quilting machine...well, all my extra time has been eaten up! I have been practicing and quilting my quilts and the quilts of my already established customer base (my friends!). I have put some new photos is my webshots album. Please take a look.........



I have been sewing bindings on some quilted placemats I made (I should put those in my album too) and on a quilt I recently quilted (oops, that one too!) but other than that, I haven't been at my dsm. :-(



This weekend, however, I am going on a retreat with my Twisted Stitchers group to Mt Shasta City! I am excited about that! A local to California teacher, Linda Ballard, is doing a double, double mystery with us. What is a "double, double" mystery, you ask? Well, it's where she chooses the quilt pattern, and the fabric AND cuts it for us. Now that is a wonderful retreat!!!!!! We just bring our machines and we sew all weekend. It is held in a local shop (Sew Unique) so we can shop any time we want. Heaven in a beautiful setting!



I have been praying and dancing with all of you and I still am enjoying reading the group.....

Gosh, I guess you *have* been busy! It looks like it must be lots of fun, though.

Whow Laurie,you have that quilting down to a fine art! There is some great quilting there! I particularly like the Starry Path! Well done!

Thanks! I am loving this longarm!

It is ~so~ much fun! I am working on a wallhanging now that I made a long time ago from scrap blocks. I am playing with new thread and new stitch technique.......what a blast!

I'll have to piggy back on this message. Great quiting! Your designs and design decisions are wonderful! Congratulations, you have a career in longarming ahead of you if you want it!

Thanks, Donna! It's nice to hear good things.......
