Well, this week I finished up my Bonnie Hunter class project, a zipper pouch, and my class sample for the Aeroplane Bag Workshop I’m teaching at Red Hen later this month. I also made significant progress on a pattern sample which I turned over to Lynn to quilt, AND have blocks done for two other tops which have been pieced as leaders and enders for a couple months now, so I’m almost back to pile-up status for quilt tops.
This weekend was Saturday Sampler pickup, too, so here are the latest blocks for this month:
On top of everything else this weekend, we celebrated my FIL’s 80’s birthday, so I finally gave him the bookshelf quilt! He loved it, which is fabulous. Originally he held it upside down and looked a little puzzled, and then turned it right side up and said, “well, I can’t tell right side up from the candle because I usually burn it at both ends”. Too funny.

you are killing me on usage, but I am holding my own and I do credit you with encouraging me to keep track.
Your YTD totals are great!!! So glad your FIL loved his quilt. He sounds like a happy fellow with his joke.
Pam, your raffle quilt is absolutely stunning! It bodes well for your design business, can’t wait to see what you create next.
