Zephies Endearing Quilt

Our star quilter has her quilt top all done after last weeks fabric exchange and it is wonderful.
The colors all worked together and the plum borders just add to its beauty. That is great inspiration for me - now to just do it!

We have a great trunk show hanging in the shop right now - quilts made by Shanna Gibbons from Lewiston Utah. Her Winter Wonderland quilt seems to be everyones favorite. Oh - but wait - this month is over and the next trunk show will be quilts from Cindy Larsen - our Utah Quilt Guild Area Rep. Really - the days are zooming past me.

The first snow fall of the year and to me that means that we can all stay inside now and get some serious sewing done. Tomorrow I am heading out of town with some friends for 3 days of sewing - I am sew excited. I tend to over pack whenever I go anywhere - so I may have more projects to do than time will allow - we'll see. I will give a detailed report next week.

We did receive from Marcus Brothers some traditional Christmas reds and greens - I love them.
They are reproductions of course. Still wondering what to make with them.

We are starting our new Buck a Block quilt tomorrow. You can still sign up - pay $10 for the starting pack, and then $1 a month (when you show your completed block) and in the end you will have a great sampler quilt. Completion kits will be available as well. Come in and join - its only a buck!

Must leave - pack and make some chicken salad. Have a great week, Kaye

Zephie, I LOVE YOUR QUILT! If I could only own one quilt, that one would be it! Kaye, I'm glad you found the "Easier than Pie" recipe. The shop looks wonderful. Miss you more and more. Dorothy Arnold
