A VERY SPECIAL DAY;BUYING THE BRIDAL GOWN

Well, she's wearing the diamond, the venue is reserved, the dinner is booked, but now it is all real with just a swirl in a dress. How do you decide when your child just looks too beautiful in each and every one?! No, I didn't get teary eyed, but I did ask myself how I could have created this beautiful creature. What a miracle a child is. Yes, today was very special, just seeing her in a wedding gown for the first time. I can't imagine what kind of emotion I'm going to feel on "The Day"

Just What I Needed!!


I was lucky enough to get into a class at Carriage Country Quilts with Meg Hawkey. For those of you not familiar with her, she is the creator of Crabapple Hill Designs. What a wonderful day!!!!!! The shop hosted her and hosted all of us to a fabulous lunch. I have never attended a class that put so much effort into detail. The food was fabulous, Meg was wonderful and the day was full of laughs and chocolate! Sounds wonderful huh? So, My new project (just what I needed) is a Crabapple Hill Design called Winter Wonderland. The main squares for the quilt are redwork and the pieced blocks use a variety of red fabrics. I'm going to start with the "snow angel" and a group of us that took the class are going to get together to make it. So many projects, so little time.
