January 26th, 2008

Today was a great day! The longarm quilters of our area met at the shop. What a treat for me! There is nothing better than to sit with a group of friends, have a little show-n-tell, and talk about quilting. I don't usually get to go to their meetings because I am at the shop, but today I was in attendance. If there are any long or short arm people that read this, you can join this group and learn all kinds of new ideas to help you with your quilting.

I was also chastised about how frequently I Blog. I will try to do better, but please don't hold your breathe on this.

The renovations are proceeding...too slow for me. But if you have ever dealt with construction people (affectionately call the "sweaty men" by my family) you know that you can't speed them up to save your life.

A sad bit of news, the man we hired to do the first renovation father had a stroke and will put us behind a little. Our prayers go with him and his family.

A bit of good news, we have been getting new fabric by the box loads lately...lots of new and pretty fabric. Our Batik, 30's, and reproductions shelves are virtually overflowing.

Kay had surgery a week ago. She is doing well and getting as sassy as ever! We saw Karla Kuklaw today and she is driving and doing okay after her surgery.

Has anyone noticed how light it is after 5 pm now? I love going home in the daylight and not the dark! Tomorrow I am going to plant the daffodils that didn't get planted in the Fall. Hope they bloom.

Have a good week.

Merrily
