what a week

Things to do on an airplane. sleep, relax, sew.

We are back from our little trip to Florida. ahhh.

just what I needed... I finished B's little quilt she designed, and also...

My "Sneak Peek" was a gift for Tonya when i went to visit her early this week!

Miss Tonya, it was so much fun to meet you, spend the day with you, hear you talk about your quilts, and see how wonderful they (the quilts) are in person.

You gave me lots of ideas to think about as I drove back that day! (And new things I am now excited to try! )

I think I may be ready to tackle a few of the hand quilting projects I have laying around here without being so intimidated by them.



The kitties came out to play and say hi too!

We visited a fabric store, of course. I picked up a few goodies on sale.
How could I not...


ACK! I just realized I left it in the hotel room!
pheew. I called, they have it... darn it! Something always gets left behind!

I have a baby blanket to make, so I found some perfect fabrics to tackle that project next week.
perhaps it will have some of those TINY letters Tonya does. I had no idea they were so small! like 3-4". So nicely done. I have to give it a try.



The day ended with a nice drive back and an ever changing sunset...

Thanks for a great day Ton!
