    Hi all

    As you may know I am here in the US temporarily - going back to Ireland on Saturday! While I have been here I have taught my long time friend and host how to quilt!!

    She made this Autumnal tablecover!! I am so proud of her!!

    I did quilt it for her as we are on a tight deadline - but she has done all the cutting, piecing, pressing and binding herself!!

    I think she may be just a teeny bit BITTEN - she is talking about a Christmas one!!!

    I do hope she will do more - she works long hard hours and I knwo quilting would be a fun release for her!!

    I have told her that before I leave I will introduce her to this site - as I KNOW you will all look after her if she gets stuck on a project!! Sometimes I cant explain things over the phone - but you guys can show her!!!
