I got 15 scrappy stars done and a lap quilt top pieced... By three
p.m. Sunday, I was bummed that I had to unplug my machine to pack it up!
I'm not sure there is any fabric left in Gruber's quilt shop.... A few
of us really bought the place out, myself is included!!
The MN quilt show was on also... Have a bunch of great pictures I will
post when I get back to New York next week.
It was great to hang out with a bunch of lovely women for a weekend...
I hope everyone got home safely, we had tornadoes around the state and
so much rain... But today of course it's glorious out here at the
cabin. The fish are jumping, birds are singing, and I Am wondering how
I can get my sewing machine plugged back in on my picnic table
outside, over looking the lake.... :-)
Sounds like a good and busy time was had by all!
ReplyDeletemaybe a little treadle machine is what you need for the cabin (or a solar powered sewing machine...just a thought!)
ReplyDeleteA very long extension lead is in order! lol Sounds like a mightly fine time was had by all! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, love the colorful blocks! Glad you're having fun.My husband would love to be there, if the fish are jumping.
ReplyDeleteOh.. the idea of sewing outdoors sounds so good! I might have to try that sometime, even if it is in my own backyard!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a wonderful weekend. I second the idea of a very long extension cord for outside sewing. Looking forward to the quilt show photos.
ReplyDeleteIt really was a fabulous weekend! Thank you so much for organizing us and welcoming me into the group. I really loved getting to know everyone, and watching everyone's work come together. Your stars and lap quilt top are so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love your scrappy stars! What a simple and effective use of scraps. I've followed your blog for some months now, and am always inspired by your work. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love those scrappy stars!! Looks/sounds like y'all had a wonderful time!!
ReplyDeleteYou really did get a lot done. I guess it pays to make a mess! I thought of you guys at 3:00 Sunday, as I was somewhere in Iowa on my way home. Next year, I'm staying till the very end . . .
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you had a great time. I love ♥ those scrappy stars on the yellow background. Now I want to make a yellow quilt!
