I know! I know!

I'm not a reliable blogger!  There I said it.  I want to be, honest.  There are just not enough hours in a day.  Excuses, I have a million of them.  That could be a blog post all by itself.  I have quilted, sewn for THE wedding and worked 6 days a week at the store.
This is "My Blue Heaven" I designed it many years ago, finished it this year and entered it in the Des Moines Area Quilt Guild Show.  It got an Honorable Mention, I'm sure because it was beautifully quilted by Trina Kirkvold.

We are ALMOST world-famous!

Our "Art Group" has nearly 60 art quilts at the Warren Cultural Center (also known by us locals, as the restored Opera House.  The building is fabulous.  Beautifully, lovingly restored.  Our exhibit looks particularly wonderful in that surrounding.  We will be hosting an Artist Reception on Thursday, July 25th from 4:30-5:30pm.  We will be available to sign autographs, if you desire!!

Let Me Sew, Let Me Sew, Let Me Sew!!

I'm sewing as fast as I can!!  We, Quilts & other Notions employees, had our own private Retreat last weekend.  We got so much done.  When we finished a project we threw it in the middle of the floor.  We had quite a stack.  Two were feeling particularly bad about NOT finishing a project, so when they finished their Chai tea, they put the cups in the middle.  It was a great time, Fred cooked for us and we did accomplish a lot.  Come by the store and we'll show you our projects!
