Quilting on NBC Nightly news

How cool to see jenny from Missouri Quilt shop featured today as a small business making quilting more accessible and providing jobs....She has become a tourist attraction bringing people and dollars to her small town.  Quilting Rules!

Quilt on 2015

For those who are thinking of attending Quiltcon 2015 in Austin, the host hotel is sold out....try this international bed and breakfast site...www.airbnb.com.    I have used it numerous times attending conventions and never been disappointed in any way.  To start planning your trip www.austintexas.org. I have convinced my sweet thing that we should drive our fifth wheel and camp.....cheaper and we can come and go as we please.  Capital metro is the public transit company there and the downtown station for train and bus is located very close to the convention center so getting around could also be cheap with a little planning

Some pics from field trip
















Field trip!!!!!

A group of the guild members went to an awesome quilt shop in Trenton Florida.  Instead of having a hot flash I had a fabric flash.     Overwhelmed? Deliriously happy.  Thanks Beth for being the designated driver.

happy Friday and V day

Friday is always a good day, even when you are retired!  Knowing the crowd that will be out today, I convinced The Man to take me out to dinner on Thursday.  Best idea ever.

New house

Well?  Looks like I will have a new home next month!  Signed a contract on a house in deltona and verrrry excited.  Big yard for the dogs, a quilting room for me and a little more space inside the house.  Now it is just blasted paperwork and inspections......sighs
