It has been awhile since my last blog and Sept is almost over. I'm glad fall season is here. It is one of my favorite times of the year. It has been 7 weeks since my hip surgery. I did get a another quilt to done in August. I brought the pattern and 8 fat quaters in Houston for the 2008 International Quilt Show. The pattern is called Follow the Leader and fabric from Pincushion Boutique Davis, CA. The fabric was a batik with blue, green and purple. I will get on the quilt machine next month. Paige and I went to EES last Monday and had a great time shopping for quilting things(books, pattern, rulers, fusible web, batting and fabric. I have been working on a 12 ft banner(2) for our church. It has been an experience working with a church group. Long story. I'm glad I got the banner ready to place leaves over it. I will be unable to work on the banner next week so won't see it until the 1st week of Oct. We are going camping to the northeast part of the state today. We are staying at Wallowa State Park near Joesph for 5 nights. We have never been that part of the state. It will be Maddie's 1st camping trip.
Yesterday, I went to Portland to the Northwest Quilting Expo. I got there early so was able to see all the quilts without a crowd. The quilts were fabulous. I will post some pictures later. Enjoyed the vendors.
