Can't visit much this morning--got places to go. But I did want to show you a little bit of the newest issue of Love of Quilting magazine. I think it's the best one they've done in several issues. I saw several projects I'd love to make, especially the Irish Chain quilt. I just love that one.
If you haven't already seen it, I hope you enjoy this little preview.
Gerald Roy's "This Old Quilt" feature is especially interesting this month. It's about Crazy Quilting.
Must go get ready for a fun outing with my quilting friend Sally. I'm keeping it a secret for now, but I'm taking my camera. And if this turns out as great as I think it will, I'll have some goodies to show tomorrow.

Love the Triple Irish Chain and wonder if I have the stick-to-itiveness to make it. I'm about to make a Single Irish Chain with my pansy fabric.
You tease us with your hints of a mysterious outing with Sally the Quilter. I'll look forward to photos. Have fun!
Oh, Kai! You have what it takes: the wish to do it! I long felt the pull toward quilts and quilting and at age 41, my boss was a quilter who showed me it's easier than it looks. REALLY! Hie thee to a quilt shop for beginner lessons. Every quilter was once a beginner!
Hugs!

Oooh! I see two that I want to make! That black-and-white one would be perfect in my bedroom. But there are two or three (or five) that I need to finish before starting another one. - Una

My mother has a crazy quilt that was quilted by my great grandmother.. I want to say. Perhaps it was older and younger, grandmother, or great great grandmother. We use it as a table cloth every Christmas. I love it.

Hi Susan,
the furnishing fabric is just gorgeous - I'm sure you will find many happy uses for it :) If I was you I'd leave the mirror gold - I think it would spoil it if you painted it. It sounds like you had a really fun and successful day!
