Oh you poor thing Barbara. I can really feel for you! It so drags at the end of the school year doesn't it?...... I love the idea of getting together......I'm such a baby when it comes to driving somewhere that I don't know by myself.....so I would never atempt it but, it would be really fun to meet everyone in person. Can't wait to see what your going to do with Jacquies center Barbara you always do such beautiful and different things. What do you teach by the way? I'm in Special Needs High School.

Well, I finally got my round on Misty's quilt finished. I really struggled with this one. I have been hand-dyeing my own fabrics lately and wanted to use some of them on this quilt (turquoise, purple, yellow, orange - all the colors I've been playing with). I thought a nice flying geese round would look good - it didn't - seemed way out of proportion to the rest of the quilt. So I cut those babies in half and thought I'd do a round of half-square triangles from them. Didn't have enough! And I had dyed a piece of yellow, but it turned out waaaay too bright, so I overdyed it into the orange that finally made it into the quilt. It's a little darker than I wanted, but at least I was able to use that piece of fabric. [ATTACH=CONFIG]341866[/ATTACH]
This is a gorgeous quilt. I absolutely love the colors of it.
I'm also attaching a picture of some of the fabrics I dyed - soooooooo much fun.

Judy, your round is just perfect. I auditioned blue as the background for my round but it was too bright next to the yellow, so I'm very happy to see it there. I just love the intricate work you do!
