Trip Around the World

Yesterday, I took off from work and went to Peggys Sewing Center for Norma Campbell's Trip Around the World. You make a queen size quilt from 24 different 1/2 yd cuts. Here is are my strips I started cutting out before class. I did not like the dark brown so I quickly added more of the pink and blues.

This is the class:

Here is Peggy and Norma:

I will try to remember to take pictures of my progress.
I had a wonderful time!

Another Saturday for Thrift Store Finds

I love looking through the thrift stores on Kent Island. Estate Treasures donates to Queen Anne's hospice program and Living Waters runs a local food bank. Here are my quilting related finds from last Saturday -- two quilt books and bags full of thread. The one spool is a never used Aurifil in cream color. How lucky is that!

I Won!!

I won the give away at Quilting Inspirations. I received a $10 Jo-Ann's gift card and 4 batik fat quarters. How fabulous is this?
Here is the link to the website:

This beautiful spruce tree went down during the snow storm Christmas.

What a Wonderful Christmas

My Tree - I barely got the tree up and trimmed before Christmas this year. I moved my treadle machine down to the living room. That is what the tree is sitting on. It is a little artificial flocked one that I adore.

All my loot - minus my 1941 Singer Featherweight from my dear and loving husband. Picture is a little fuzzy, but you get the idea - I am spoiled.
