Monday

Greetings to you on MLK Day. Maybe you have the holiday off - but not me! Work - work - work. I am excited to say that I finished a quilt last night - a 2 color quilt from Kim Diehls newest book. I will have it to take it to the Winterfest retreat next week. Kim is the guest teacher this year. I will be teaching 2 fun classes - Burgoyne Surrounded and a Disappearing 9-patch. It is always a fun retreat - lots of familiar faces, fun vendors and good food. I am taking Zephie with me this year - she is taking a class from Kim and then taking care of the booth while I teach. I am really looking forward to our little working vacation.
We love it when the UPS truck stops at our back door. Today he brought 3 boxes of cloth - "Sent With Love" from Moda and "Liberty" from Windham. It has a big red toile that I love.
I must get down stairs to see and touch them. That always inspires me.
We are suppose to get snow this week - I hope it comes and cleans up our nasty air. Have a great week, Kaye

Am I the only person who doesn't know about Winterfest? I suppose I haven't lived here long enough yet....Anyway, I'm up to date with my Favorite Things BOM! Only 2 months left to go! My family is fighting for the finsihed quilt-assuming it will actually get quilted and bound by 2011/2012.

You go girl! Winterfest is a wonderful retreat - held every January up above Heber Utah at Daniels summit. Check out HQNAwinterfest.com Maybe next year you will have to join us. You behave- Kaye
