Yahooooooooooooooo ... I just looked in my sewing room and I have finishes all lined up to come in for a landing, like airplanes lined up to land at Atlanta Hartfield after a summer thunderstorm!
About five - or maybe more - projects are within spittin' distance of finishes!!!!! Oh me oh my I am so excited!!
So - here is the first one: a small piece, made by Shadow Trapunto technique. Pattern from Geta Grama in her book, "Shadow Trapunto". This is fun, fun... I think I am going to teach a class in this technique this winter, so I am trying to get a few of these finished to use as class samples and to hold up for 'show and tell' during class!!
Meanwhile, DH has adopted a new hobby - sorting my drawers of strips - he likes to organize things - here he is with my 3.5 inch strips - there weren't many of that size ... the 2.5 inch drawer kept him busy for an hour or so!! But it is great to have these all sorted - now I just have to figure out what to do with them and find time to do it!!! HA HA... (I promised I would not show his head in the photo - - he's in the witness protection program today). thank goodness his socks don't have holes.
Tomorrow no sewing for me - work all day and then the Quilt Guild Board Meeting tomorrow night... I always take hand work, though, so get something accomplished... I'm three months into my term as program chair - it was fun for - oh, about three months!!! Actually I enjoy the visiting quilt speakers - but the board meetings are not my favorite - oh well, i must grin and be cooperative!
One of my quilts will be in a show starting Friday - the 'Quilting in the Oaks' show in Livermore, CA... quilts hanging from hundred-year old oaks... it's breathtaking - and , yes, there will be photos!!!
More finishes soon..........
Kate
