Home from Paducah--Finding Flowers

Well, I am back from Paducah and glad that week is over. Saw lots of beautiful quilts, good vendors (spent too much money) and saw alot of GREAT FRIENDS (that is you Barb)!! I was surprised that the number of people attending was down. I have been going for the past 20+ years and have never been able to walk into a restaurant at noon and sat down to eat and see other tables open.

All my clematis's are blooming and this is early for them. They are so beautiful.

My ferns are coming in nicely. I would like to use their leaves when I dye fabric and let it dry in the sun.And then we have nice weeds also.

Well, I'm cleaning my studio and rearranging furniture and trying to put away fabric. Hope to get this done to start up sewing and quilting on May1.. That is my goal to sit at the sewing machine and get things DONE!!! Procrastination---GOODBYE!!

Keep on Quilting!!!

Dyed fabric and Log Cabin

It was so nice this past week I decided to dye some more fabric. This group I started with Bright Red, Golden Yellow and Bright Blue . The last group in March, I used Fuschia, Sun Yellow and Bright Blue.

I have been quilting for several years and I have never made a Log Cabin quilt. So I found this fabric some by Michael Miller and thought --- this is my Log Cabin.

I am leaving this Tuesday for Paducah. The BIG QUILT SHOW I hope some of you are heading there also. I will be taking my computer with me so let me know if you are there. If so Have a GREAT TIME.

Keep on Quilting!!!
