At the family quilt retreat this year we did a simple little zig zag quilt. It was lots of fun, and quick to do. My daughter-in-law finished binding hers last weekend. She made a baby quilt for her sister.
Isn't it darling? She put soft minky on the back--perfect for a baby quilt!
Speaking of family, here we all are on Easter Sunday. What a good looking bunch! And they are sweet, too. We had a great weekend together.
All the GRANDS together. Those cute cousins have matching outfits because Grandma couldn't resist. (And then I just had to get Emmy a little princess dress, after all, she is the only girl!)
Moving along, I have been busy with my next two fabric lines. One is almost ready, I have the strike-offs now, and the other is just starting the process. I think you will like them. At least I hope so. I will show them in the next post.
Our house is coming along, but slowly. At least it seems slow when you are living with most of your stuff in storage. I bet I've forgotten half of the things I own. I was just thinking the other day that I should file some of this business stuff, only to remember that I own a file cabinet, but it is no where to be found. Sigh. (Note to self: File later.)
One great thing I have been so looking forward to is the new studio. They have framed in all the shelves and the window seat:
Just imagine these shelves stocked with fabric bolts and baskets. And a cute cushion on the window seat surrounded by handmade pillows! (Inside the seat is a great storage area for batting. Just the right size, and out of sight.)
The studio is really not that big--but it certainly is bigger than where I am now! And it will all be laid out just perfectly with a spot for everything and plenty of surface area to work. On the opposite end of the room is my office alcove. I will now be able to keep the business area and the creative area separate. This is where my NEW file drawers will be--and I'm sure I will have a lot of filing to do.
Be sure to check back soon, I am going to show you my new fabric.
