A Quick Post Again! Winners from Previous Post Coming



Working on a story quilt about Mark and I when we were young. It's taking more time than I planned. Don't they all?

Below, I get some kind of a post now and then about these chairs. I thought you all would love to see them! Inspirational!


I heard this is a pattern and it is featured in the new Quilt Shop Sampler. Very pretty!
I like ve anything chicken and thought this gourd was a great quilt idea.
Love the colors in the one below.
I had a gourd birdhouse and it was ruined in the weather (don't leave them outside!
Last year my block swap group got together and swapped jack o'lanterns. Such fun!

I teach an Autumn sampler class and this was the beginning of such a class. It is really fun and gets people out of the box and on their way to originality!!

Took photos last year at market in Halloween- worth Shari g again
Today I  in Iowa teaching. I have lots to say and share. Going to give lecture today and tonight. Davenport is a lovely Midwest town with nice people and good down home shops and great food. Life is lovely in the Fall. And aren't the pumpkins darling? So fun! I have a Fall workshop I teach and it is fun to work on this stuff when you don't have to hurry. Know what I mean? 
Share your smile with someone who needs one.

  3. Love your bright chicken and fish. I'm off to retreat soon and planning to sew my jack o'lanterns together. Working on my owls also. They were fun swaps.
