I finished my last weekend class for UW
grad students yesterday in the "heartland" of Wyoming. And then I drove north to get home to Bozeman with a load of stuff. Of course I had to stop at Big Horn Quilts as I traveled through Greybull, Wyoming. What a store! It is set up for all of the online 
business they do and it is all organized by line and collection. I bought a few new pieces and decided I must really need lots of flowers in my life so I am buying big, splashy floral prints - all on black. Something must be brewing in my 
creative crock pot as it is a very strong attraction.A little snow . . .
The temperature there was in the high 70's. It got cooler and cooler as I got closer and closer to Bozeman and we woke this morning to fresh snow - again - or is it still!
Nice surprise . . . Then when I got home, my "On Track" magazine was here waiting. I was so thrilled to see the last page was an interview with my quilt entry for last year at MQS. I haven't entered anything this year, but I know the time is coming again.
Priceless . . .
Also, I want to share a "sleeping beauty" picture of our Portland princess after a long day of ballet classes and princess activities. And here is another wonderful picture - this time of our "sleeping prince" here with us today. He and grandpa are taking a nap on the couch.
Love the pics of the prince and princess. We had ours all weekend - what fun.
ReplyDeleteIt appears we have like minds on the splashy florals on black. I bought enough of different ones last year to make about 15 quilts. Only made up about 8, but I will have lots more gifts to give! Can't wait to see what you do with these beauties.
More beautiful florals to pick our interest! I can't wait to see what you do with them.
ReplyDeleteLove seeing pictures of the prince and princess. They are so adorable!
As soon as I saw the quilt picture in On Track, I knew it was yours. You need to get another one ready for submission to add to your ribbon collection.
Thank you both for the visit and the kind comments. I am so anxious to get back home to stay. The first thing on my list is going to be to clean and reorganize my studio so I can get my creative soul running full time again. I may have to just hang the beautiful florals as I hate to cut into them. LOL!
ReplyDeleteLove the florals especially the Michael Miller Ruby Tulips, hmmm, wonder why (lol)...... The grandbabies are so precious and Congrats on the magazine article, one of many I am sure... You are on the downhill side of teaching, some journeys must be made to strengthen our souls and passions.... Love to you my friend.... Ronda
