What makes a dreary cold day in April brighter? MORE FABRIC! HAPPY FABRIC!
Fabric and colors can impact my mood ---and even though we grumbled about waking up to snow outside – ((Yes, this is what I saw all over poor Shamu when I went to drive to the Conference center from the lodge ---UGH!!!)) we knew we were going to get to spend the whole day playing with our fabric, petting it, sewing it, pressing it, UNSTITCHING it, and even swapping it with others for more variety in some cases.
And we got SO MUCH sewing done ----you gotta check this out:
Oooh, pretty! No cold in here!
Irons keep us nice and toasty warm too!
Measuring twice, and cutting ONCE!
And once again, until blocks appear from strip sets!
And blocks turn into THIS:
And even the silliness of this:
Whoowhooo!
And some zealous quilter blows us away with this:
We are in awe!! Isn't this going to be great?

They are certainly very colorful selections and all your ladies look to be having a good time. Can't believe the snow after such a recently warm day for you. Enjoy.
