On most Saturdays we have breakfast at a cafe. The only day of the week that we indulge in Bacon and Eggs and Pancakes. The rest of the week it's cold cereal. Sat. is special. Today we will go to Sherwood Days. Our daughter and son-in-law live in Sherwood and we walk through town looking at lots of old cars and booths with all kinds of treasures. I'm sure I will find something interesting to photograph so I know you will not want to miss seeing them.


Here is the picture of the Lemoyne Star little quilt that will be part of the fall Hand Piecing class. It is fun to sew something this small and have a finished project quickly.


The next picture is the sewing box that will be included in the class and it will be filled with hand-sewing needs.


If you are able to come to the Sandy Quilt Show at the end of this month you can see them up close and personal. I enjoyed making them and we also will be making the sewing roll up that I previously talked about.

    I don't think that you got any rain today, right? Your quilt is gorgeous! Even after I quilted it. :-)

    We made a good choice.

It was a good thing that my open studio was scheduled for the day it was because I just barely escaped the snow! It was a fun day and many friends stopped by to see where I love to sew. A friend who I hadn't seen in years, Joy, came and I was so happy to see her again. When I owned The Quilting B, the best thing about being there was all the new friends I made. I probably would never met many of you if it hadn't been for those years! Thanks! Here are a few of the pictures from that day. Ellen came with her project and it is beautiful! My neighbor, Monica is helping me have a great time! Along with the stitching, it is a time to make more friends and to know each other a little better. Our dog, Oscar, loves to be with people. Jean and Julie are keeping on task! And then it snowed!!!! Yard art! But the dogs are happy inside. When Oscar walked outside when it was icy, he would walk along the top and the...

I guess if I'm going to get anything else written before 2013, I'd better get at it. Earlier this month Loren and I went to downtown Portland and watched the Tuba Christmas. It was held at Pioneer Courthouse Square and was beautiful. Listening to that many tubas outside was wonderful. It was a little misty and a bit cold but all crowded together, it wasn't bad. I love the old courthouse. Tried to get the flag billowing out, almost. It is such a beautiful old building. We don't have many buildings like this, we tear them down and make something new. nice tree...great back view of someones head! After watching for a while we went to.... Besides the greatest smelling cigars, they sell their wonderful cigar boxes. I was looking for a perfect one to give my daughter with a scarf that I knitted for her. Of course, I found one and sorry I didn't take a picture of it. It is black and just perfect for her. Score!  A little l...
