Quiltfest!
Not a great photo,
but one of my favorites to look at!
My friend Doris Facebook messaged me the other day,
inquiring if I wanted to join her at Quiltfest Sunday.
It took a nano second to say yes!
It was a nice show with some lovely quilts to look at.
I managed to leave with some fat quarters.
I know, you're shocked :)

Cowl!
It hasn't arrived yet, but
here is a sneak peek at the cowl
my wonderful sister-in-law
Becky knitted for me!
She lives in WI,
so we "shopped" together for the yarn online,
http://www.yarn.com in violet
and she made it in no time.
She says it is more purple than the picture shows.
I can't wait to see it!

Originally I was going to use another fabric,
but this one won because of it's weight!

Jules Birthday!
I got a text earlier this week
from my friend Beth,
whose husband Jules was
celebrating a birthday, turning 65,
and being honored at a luncheon today.
The text wondered if I had any inexpensive,
creative centerpiece ideas.
The above photo is what I came up with.
They looked amazing!!!

Selvage Fabric
Christina of A Few Scraps in Portland, OR made this selvage fabric on Spoonflower! Isn't this amazing? The biggest dots are about an inch across. Christina decided to make a smaller version too. You can see both on her blog, and you can purchase this fabric at Spoonflower ($18/yard): large dots, and small dots. I'm liking the busyness of the smaller dots. I've been thinking of this for a long time. Actually doing it is so much better! Yayy, Christina!
Dreaming of doing this, and actually doing it are two different things!
Personally, it is all about the selvage hunt for me!

Kindle cover for Rachelle!
My friend Rachelle
got a new Kindle Fire,
so of course, she needed
a selvage cover for it!
She is the friend who I go
to Lancaster with for the
AQS show.
Even though she doesn't quilt,
she is the best selvage stalker there is!!!

Want. Now.
Love, but not the $98 price tag!
If you love colors then you’re probably the type who’s such a purist about it
and refers to Pantone swatches for the accuracy of color representation.
For those who don’t know, Pantone, Inc. is a company known for its
Pantone Matching System, which is basically a universal
means of getting color to match across industries.
I had no idea!

Marisa on National Television!!
Last Monday, she was at the
Syracuse basketball game,
and as they panned the crowd,
they zero-ed in on her and two
of her friends for about 5 seconds!!
We were able to hit the DVR and get a recording of it!!
It was so incredibly cool!!!!!!
