It's beginning to look like show season

It's beginning to look like the start up of quilt show season.  Last weekend was the Squanicook Quilt Guild Show.  One October 4 & 5th is Souhegan Valley Quilters Guild Show.  This is one of "MY" Guilds.  MoNsters will be making it's premier showing here.  I will be take pictures and taking raffle tickets for the baskets that MANY wonderful donations have been given for.  Please see the list and support this people.

I had intented to go to the Squanicook Show on Saturday but got ask to go for a ride to Vermont with one of my Soul Sisters.  We stumble over to the Bennington Quiltfest. And were just a tad chilled with the temps being at under 60 degrees.  I ended up with these cut buttons for my sewing sisters. 

This is a few of my favorite Quilt...It was right inside the cafeteria

On the way ambling home we stopped vermontbowl.com and I got my Hubby some salad claws

I have to admit that last week I did not get a stitch of quilting done due to the fact that I ran away to visit my Grandchildren in North Carolina

March & April

March came in like a lion and seemd to stay that way for the whole month
April showers are suppose to bring May flowers......well just please no more snow!

The crocus have arrived in the garden. To me the first sure sign that spring is here to stay.

On April 1st I got a beautiful Grandchild
Please meet Brianna Jay with her big brother Taylor

Machine quilting is starting to pickup up, so my piecing will slow down.

My monsters quilt is still needing a few more borders, and my Summer Memories is almost there. Kris Poor of

Speaking of Winter Memories.......I GET TO QUILT THE NEW SAMPLE !!!

New toy of the Month has been the Creative Grids Pineapple Ruler

Where has the time gone .....let's see

Where has time gone. Well, after Halloween, came Thanksgiving.  Thanksgiving brought a visit from my grandson Taylor with his parents

Feeding the birds with Papa

Taylor with Uncle B and Aunt Amanda

Then came Christmas with Gregs parents.  New Years was a quite affair in our house. With the flu finding Greg just before Valetines Day.  Quilt Camp was in there too.  I lost my mojo and think that a few long nights with books by the woodstove have helped to me find it.  Now I hope to have more balance and enjoy more; with a little less of the rush in my life and in my quilting.  The wind is blowing hard outside and my book and the fire in the stove are calling as I have tomorrow off from my day job for President's Day Holiday

Night All
