I was nuts to think I could meet my deadline to deliver the quilt to the show on April 25...I still think I can. So all of you who have ventured a guess, the deal is still on! I've been listening to a couple of books on CD while working...have your read/listened to "The Thirteenth Tale?" AWESOME!!!!
The housework is in decline and meals are getting a little boring, but the family is coping well with my insanity and are cheering me on. Thank you for all of your encouragement as well!
I am so behind on reading your blogs and responding to your nice comments...please forgive...I will catch up soon.
Crispy was curious what I bought at The Quilt Box in Dry Ridge, Kentucky. They have the best reproduction fabrics!! I bought some newbies and some "oldies but goodies," mostly from Windham and Moda. So here they are for your drooling pleasure...
Whenever I need a little TLC and balm for my sore quilting fingers, I just run my hands over these babies and they feel better IMMEDIATELY! The prescription for sore fingers: "take two fat quarters and call me in the morning; repeat every four hours, as needed."
In stitches,
Teresa :o)
