Of course I can never be working on a single project I have to have 2 maybe 3 things going at one time so I also am working on a table runner using the Bears Paw block I will be doing this as a Quilt As You Go project. I usually have my hands in a quilt or fabrics or some other crafty thing. Right now it is quilting that rules! Again welcome to the QB Jump right in and join the fun!
    Hi Julia, so nice to meet you. I’ll check out the projects area here to see if you post photos of your Drunkard’s Path quilt and table runner. I hope you do post photos. I’d love to see the colors you use. The Bear’s Paw Block would be perfect for me to do a video on. I’ve only done one table runner QAYG. I don’t know why I haven’t done more. Strange how that happens. Have fun finishing your quilt. I’m sure it’s beautiful!

    Hi Rhonda, nice to meet you. I lived in in Florida for about 20 minutes one year, straight out of high school...those were the days.

    I’ve made some really cute mug rugs for Christmas gifts. I’ll try to post a photo this weekend if I can find them in my phone. I haven’t done any photo postings yet but I’ll give it a try. I’ll look for your posts as well to see what you come up with. Have a great weekend!

    Hi Barb and nice to meet you. It’s a pretty incredible site here. I’m glad I found it!

    I’m thinking South Louisiana might be a tad more uncomfortable this time of year than here... you know we have a “dry heat.” But the humidity is good for your skin! Stay cool and have a great weekend!

    Hi Tartan, nice to meet you. I actually grew up across the border near the Thousand Islands, NY. Beautiful country back there! Thanks for the welcome and have a great weekend.

    Hi Sue...I once belonged to a group of Senior online chatters, and of course we all had our 'handles' and at that time I lived in Kentucky....so I was 'gran KY'....or granky....and It has stuck like glue!

    Welcome to the board from another Arizonan. We were in Phoenix yesterday and it was very warm so I know you are smart to stay inside during this heat. Enjoy quilting and sewing
