My Heart's Goin' Boom, Boom, Boom!

 

It was a busy day of Me Timin', birthday

celebratin' and eh, working...  but on my

morning errands I ran into a shop across

the street from my bank and picked up this

little turquoise tree!  It will be perfect for

displaying my feltworks in the European

Folk Art Collection.  Sometimes little things

can make you so happy.

My Guest Appearance

 

I was up well before dawn this morning to

drive a few hours south to Columbus, IN to

make a guest appearance at the Quilter's

Holiday Extravaganza.

 

This is what I call the American Homestead

Corner of the booth of The Quilt Shoppe.

 

 

Dawn had a little table set up for me where

I could demonstrate the stitching on the felt

ornaments, sign some autographs and show

people the ways they can use the feltwork in

their homes all year round.

 

 

The new felt kits in the American Homestead

European Folk Art colors are now available.

 

 

I wish I could wheel this little cart home

with me!

 

 

I love how the folk art colors look on

this white tree.

The extravaganza continues on Saturday

until 4 pm.

 

 

 

 

Back to Work!

 

 

International Quilt Market may not be until

late October but the work has begun in

preparation for my booth.  Right now I am

in love with this combination of colors.  I call

it my European Folk Art style.

 

 

Today I'm making half square triangles

for a new little quilt design.

 

 

And of course, I had to take a shopping

trip to get some fabrics that inspire me...
