That sand was so different from our Northumberland Strait stuff. We live on such a fascinating planet.

I am using EPP to make 6 pointed stars. Later these will be joined by hexies. This is going to be queen sized and will be the first quilt that I made for us. Everything else I have made have been for others. And there is no deadline!

I just re-watched this wonderful classic movie recently; speaking for myself, it's amazing the nuances a person can draw from the same movie when viewed a second time after the ensuring years have added some maturity. It's one that I will hope to purchase for my library of classics. I loved seeing the pictures you have taken while in Florida. Thank you for sharing your life with us.

It is getting cold in Wyoming. But good news, my rulers arrived on Friday, so I am all set for En Provence. Been sewing some 4 patches intermittently while preparing to travel to Colorado for 2 days. Had to dig out a few more neutrals, more whitish instead of the creams I had pulled. Mixing it up!

Thank you SO MUCH, Bonnie, for the extra effort you made for us non-scrappy types. I for one really appreciated the two options for neutrals, after reading the instructions which would have meant cutting up my one fabric and sewing it right back together :) I took your advice and dug out a second option, and made up all my checkerboards yesterday.Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00537141175261483876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-24022448469237772752016-11-26T15:26:35.708-05:002016-11-26T15:26:35.708-05:00Lucky you on the beach this weekend!

I too love old movies and can watch and rewatch and even tho I know them by heart I still continue to enjoy. I am a newer reader, Follower, etc., altho when I blogged year ago I read along then too. My quilting muse rather suffered for a while but it spontaneously has returned so I'm busy with some stuff, smiling as I go. I just within a week or so discovered your quilt cam videos so I'm a new viewer. Haven't yet caught one live but hope I can manage that. Thanks for your kind contributions to quilters all over the world, me included. :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17630518561509369935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-12225584199889720962016-11-26T11:39:27.694-05:002016-11-26T11:39:27.694-05:00Looks like you are enjoying your vacation.
