I Want to be Teacher's Pet
Today was definitely a new day. I look forward each week to Teacher Tuesday announcements on the Sewing Summit but today was such treat. Two of my favorite bloggers are teaching a paper piecing class together: Lee of Freshly Pieced and Elizabeth of Don't Call Me Betsy. When the class schedule goes live, I'll have my finger on the trigger! Also big news for me; the hunt for a SLC room mate is now officially on - wish me luck!FMQ Conquered
I was filled with excitement which is not exactly relaxed but certainly not stressed out and uptight like yesterday either.So... FMQ was back on the table. More accurately, two folding tables - all sprawled out. I had to climb over to get to my machine.
Aurifil is my new best friend. I know there's a lot of give aways and promotion of the thread lately but you don't have to sell me on the stuff - it's fabulous. A nice medium aqua worked well with the Amy Butler honeycomb backing. I'll do a full reveal of this project once complete.
Linking up to Lee's WIP (because it's already Wednesday in other parts of the world - and morning have been rough since my work schedule change)
This weeks tally:
Completed: Dana's Row Robin
Great Progress: Asterisk Quilt
QALs were a bust this week/Zilch: NYB, Quick Curve, Zakka (although the book arrived so that kind of counts!)
Your quilting is beautiful. It looks so light and smooth - like whipped cream almost. Also like the colors in your quilt.
