Remember this Quilt?
It finally came off the design wall last night to start having the binding turned and hand stitched down. Don't ask me what I've been waiting for - it's time for this one to be done!
Onto more of the Paducah acquisitions... It's all about the BOOKS!!!
I got to meet a new author - Patience Griffin and picked up two of her books. She has a third one coming soon.
I thought I was going to be able to start reading them on the trip in the hotel at night - HA!!! Not so much as I fell into bed each night, completely wore out, full of quilty dreams! I'll review them once I get to them but they look great.
I hit the damaged book sale at Finkel's and scored a nice collection of past New Quilt from an Old Favorite books.
And of course, when in Rome at an AQS show, you might as well renew your membership. This year I got this great machine quilting book 'Dream Feather' free with my renewal.
And finally, I am ready for the new year - with a 2016 engagement calendar.
Happy May Day!! Hope the weekend brings some sewing machine time!
That's the first 2016 diary I've seen. I thought the year was rushing by, but now I'm sure of it!
