There are finally some signs that spring may be on it’s way here in Ohio.
And the giveaway winner is….Brye Lynn! Check out her blog and podcast at sewstitchcreate.com. I can’t wait to hear it myself – it is downloading to the ipod now.
Thank you everyone who joined in the giveaway commenting. I know you were visiting to enter the contest…but your nice comments were very much appreciated! Quilters are the best.
Alex Anderson is coming!!! Abigayle’s Quiltery is hosting Alex for two lectures in the Cleveland area this May. Click on the ’special events’ button at the Abigayle’s site to see details.
Goal updates -
- Round Robin – round one is complete! That’s The Husband peaking over the top.
- Winter coat is complete! The Husband managed to take my photo in it without revealing my flood pajama bottoms hanging out. Ha!
- Sunburst block - the second block of six for the year, complete! No pic – just look at the last one. They are all the same.
Today’s main topic is my wishlist. There is probably some blogging word for it that I don’t know, but I am defining it as a list of techniques, materials, blocks, patterns, etc. that I would someday like to work with. In most cases I would create an entire bedsized quilt for an item on the list. What is on my list? You’ll have to listen to the show to find out!! What is on your list? Leave a comment or blog and leave a link to your blog entry. I’d love to know!
Happy quilting everyone! Welcome to Spring

Episod #4 – Quilt fix by snail mail
There are lots of ways to get your quilt fix by snail mail – who doesn’t love getting mail?!
Show notices – glossy brochures to upcoming shows are lovely to get. Here are a few I’ve recently received:
Sewing catalogs! I love catalogs! Sure you can shop on the internet too but then you don’t get the joy of touching glossy paper. And you can still browse when the electricity goes out.
Magazines!! There are tons of magazines to read, here are the three I get:
What about…
- Block of the Month programs – otherwise known as BOM’s.
- Fabric subscriptions – some shops offer a subscription service similar to fruit-of-the-month clubs, with themes like Bali or Moda fabric, etc.
Many thanks to those leaving comments!!!
