Post Groundhog Post

Well, yesterday was Groundhog Day.

I should have given you the heads up yesterday morning, but I did not remember until...
I kept repeatedly cutting kit after kit, after kit. . . . hummm seems like I have done this before....

Around the Town Kit
That is a waaaay cute kit, by the way.  If you have ordered one (and many have) I am working on yours today!  But I am still waiting on some more fabric which I ordered and is probably stuck on I-70 or frozen in a warehouse, or maybe they didn't even process the order yet because the plants were all closed!  But I will eventually get everything I need, and ship them off to you for your quilting bliss.

So I watched the movie while I was folding.

I also went to see how the production of my new Poke-A-Dots is coming along.  That was very exciting.  I have had one stuck to my finger for almost a whole day now.  Here is a pic of one of my new molds.

And here are some sheets of Poke-A-Dots in the curing oven...  nice and toasty in there.

By late afternoon, it was warming up and the wind had calmed down.
This morning when I took my son to school it was a balmy 4 degrees.  That's fahrenheit, mind you.  I think we are getting warmer!  It is going to be a good day. 

By the way, best wishes to all my friends who are fighting the weather battle in other parts of the US and our friends in Australia who have the opposite problems.  I am thinking of all of you!

Oh, and I almost forgot.  I wanted to say congratulations to Talia, who got an A on her Stats test!  See, I told you that computer case would work wonders for a Statistics class!

Are your dots for sale yet? I looked in your store and didn't see them. I'd love to try them out. I'm always hand stitching, and taking dots off, putting them back on.. taking them off, putting them back on.. they just don't seem to have that.. stickability I love. But I hate thimbles.. so these seem like they would be the perfect fit for me.

The Dots are just being sent out to stores next week. We have been delayed by all the production, etc. As soon as they are ready, I will have them on my web site, too.
Maybe I can also post a list of shops who ordered them so you can find them!
