Here is the quilting update for the week:
Paisley Party arrived Monday. What a beautiful line! There is a great beginner level quilt kit, which I've scheduled a class for in November. See it here!
I added a few new classes. Be sure to check them out if you're in the area.
My sister was nice enough to update the Quilt Samples on the website.
My sister also did my dishes. Oh yeah, she even added some of the new kits:
Warm Hands, Warm Hearts
Christmas Crossing
Sweet Sunshine
And More!
Recipe for Friendship was shipped Thursday. It should be in-store by next Thursday!
I finally got to use my long-arm Wednesday! Quilts are once again going out the door. Hooray!
2 weeks and counting until Quilt Market. Can't wait!

Where's a Flu Shot When You Need One?
It's that time of year again. I'm stuck in a time warp, still wishing we were boating on the weekend, when suddenly I'm stuck in bed with the stomach flu. Just when things were starting to settle down slightly, the shop is moved, the longarm is moved, quilt shows are over until next Spring, and suddenly I'm bed ridden.
I spent all of Sunday in bed, unless you count trips to the bathroom to, well......you know the rest. In the mean time, my kids took full advantage and terrorized the house all day. Where was Monte? Why, lying right next to me with the same problem, of course! Which could have been funny, except that it wasn't.
It was all we could do to crawl to the bedroom door every few hours and yell something like "Settle down!" "Go outside and play, NOW!" or "Who left the fridge open?!"
And that big, empty room that used to be filled with a mountain of quilt tops and a certain longarm machine? My kids have mistaken it for a wrestling/tag/basketball/dance arena.
The light bulbs in the dining room/deck/family room area aren't all mysteriously burnt out at once, either. The breaker's just tripped. "Not me" decided to investigate the former longarm power outlet in the floor with a screw driver.
Now, I'm stuck home today with "Not Me," who has the stomach flu. Just when I thought I might get to make sure my longarm still runs. But hey, who doesn't love scrubbing the carpet at 6am? By the way, race car beds are all kinds of fun, except when the driver doesn't make it all the way to the bathroom. Then they're just a great big germ factory that requires lots of disinfecting.
I think I'll find some time to make 5 appointments for flu shots - ASAP.
