Goodbye to the Grid Class

Here's a sketch of a quilt-to-be!!!  (Good Lord Willing and the Creek don't rise)

I like both of these variations on a theme.  Don't know which one to select?  what do you think my friends?

Quilt Univ. Class

I'm currently taking a class from Dena Crain at Quilt U ( www.quiltuniversity.com)  and I find I enjoying it thoroughly.  Nothing like new techniques to get the motivation rolling and the ideas rising.  The class is "Goodbye to the Grid"  There are students from all over the globe enrolled in the class and Dena is a fabulous teacher who gives lots of feedack and has prepared excellent lessons  for her students.

THEY KNOW WHAT I LIKE! :-)

My sister attended the National Association of Black Sstoryteller's Conference in November 2012, and bought this lovely wall hanging for me.  The center is felted and shows the three Wise Men coming to see the babe.  I love the colors and the stitching of the crazy blocks.

Then, my daughter took the crazy picture I've used all year on FB and this blog and made a mug of it for me.  Now, this  is my favorite mug.

Sister also purchased this book, which I didn't have in my collection.   I remember her asking to borrow this and finding out I didn't have it.  Clever girl.  The thoughtfulness of these gifts fills me with gratitude that overflows my heart.
