Today is way below 0 degrees here in WI with a wind chill factor of -45degrees, schools are closed and I am getting ready to go to a retreat this weekend. So lots to do…My photo is a quilt that I am hand quilting. Crazy Hearts by The Buggy Barn. It is nice to do a row every couple of days or so…some quilts just need to be hand quilted. I inserted a big pic so you hopefully can see the stitches. Fans about 1-1/2 inches. I have some acrylic templates from Judy at the shop, she gave them to me for my birthday, all my tools are shown here. I have a wonderful frame that looks like a piece of furniture, so it is ok with me that it is set up in my sewing room. In other words, it is not ugly.
Yesterday I was in Brookfield WI teaching a workshop on Wool Applique and gave a lecture and trunk show of my things…I met a lot of new ladies and seen some old friends. My students were all outstanding and will be happy with there projects. I appreciate the ladies all coming out in this awful weather. I forgot to take pics at our class, oh well next time…
