It's almost time to start the fall QAL. Sometime mid Sunday I will get the 1st week's direction out for everyone. I expect a pic of finish project then too. I figure it will take about 4 weeks to complete the top.
***Hint, hint. Start getting your fall color blocks together.
See you then.

Oooh... very cryptic! Is it a quilt? Table runner?

BTW Happylab, my user name is a 'take off' on the word "showbiz"... in my case, since I sew and sell my handmades, it's SEWbiz. I'm sewbizgirl!

Hey DJ, I have the same issue, my b-day is 2 days AFTER Christmas, and of course it is pretty much a "non-day". None of my friends remember, and family may call or send me a text. My mom is the only one who never forgets on my actual birthday. Looking forward to this year with many birthday wishes heading my way from my QB board family!
(and lots of yummy candies to play with!!)

They do take me fishing in the summer, but golly when it's my bd I just keep quiet now, except on this board with these glorious quilters. You're gonna love it, it is so uplifting! God bless them all!!!!
Looking forward to the next bd swap, all new fabric, too!

Yeah early birthday wishes! Thanks Ladies!

So I have been very busy the last few days. My sweet pup Sophie had surgery on Thursday to remove 1 very large tumor and one smaller one as well as two cysts. Brought her some late Thursday night and we have been pretty much cuddling ever since. Happy to report that they did not find any cancer!

Poor thing 20 stitches on one side

I will be posting November birthday address tomorrow.

Barb

I made her a pillow (made from a sweater) she seems pretty happy with it. She mostly wants to lay on me or my flannel quilt.
