Hello everyone, Thanks to those kind people who sent kind thoughs about my less than optimal year. Building permit approved last week so we start building in a month. We hope. I have been busy with my new computer and digital camera and finally posted the final shotsof my first (and only) completed quilt. Here's the link and I DO hope it works:

I have dug out my stash and dusted off the Janome and found a free pattern on the WWW and started a new quilt. I'm using up some fabric I bought on EBay when I started quilting. So, it's PURPLE! Florals, butterflies and a couple of blenders. But I used up most of it. Very simple strips in 16" blocks to make a lap quilt. Will post pics on Webshots when everyone has a pair of sunglassses ready.

What a lovely idea, Fay! It's a great quilt - interesting pattern and really good colours. Thanks for sharing your very special first quilt.

Now have fun with your 'purple people eater'! (couldn't resist that, although it dates me terribly!). . In message , Fay writes

Very impressive. Dancing in the moonlight for ya, Fay!

Congratulations, Fay! It's a wonderful quilt -- first or whatever! :)

That is lovely Fay. So much work. Look forward to seeing the next one!

Lovely, lovely quilt, Fay! Congrats on finishing your first quilt. :-)

Can't wait to see the new one! I'm rather partial to purple.
