I hope everyone is staying cool, it seems this past month has  been the hottest month on record.  Here is NC we have been getting a good deal of rain in the past 2 weeks that has helped cool things down a little bit.  

In addition to working on quilting for others I have been making a queen size quilt for my granddaughter.  I don't normally make large quilts anymore but I love her dearly so of course I said yes when she asked.  I am almost finished.  

I have played with some wool and finished a landscape, a vessel and a bunny rabbit.  This is very addicting.

Last month I entered my local Quilt Guild's Quilt show - It has been a good 9 years or so that I entered a show - Thanks to the new group who agreed to do some special handling I entered 7 of my leather pieces and 2 fabric quilts.   I was pleasantly surprised to win a total of 8 ribbons- 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and best machine quilting.  My grandson helped me add them to the ribbon walls.  

Damien ad I entered his quilt as a duet and although he did not win a ribbon he received some very good comments from the judges on his quilting and he was very happy with that.  I did all the piecing and he did the quilting on it.  The competition in that category was steep.  

On a Business note:

I have made some updates on the Quilting prices tab to add a few more batting selections.  I personally love the Dream cotton as a first choice but I will carry the Warm and Natural Cotton and for a lighter weight choice Hobbs 80/20.  

Also I have added Hand binding back in as a option.  

I have been able to stay within the 30 day turn around time and I have been able to work in those must have done sooner quilts.  

A new order form is now available to reflect the changes. 

I am still working on the email list for the newsletters for now keep checking the blog and always feel free to contact me with any questions you have.  

I will be uploading some new patterns soon.  

Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from you all soon.
