Sounds like a fun party ,now to choose a pattern and design. This is great I hate to go shopping and designing my own is much more fun.

Hello???? Haven't seen any activity in awhile. Cuppy, you should have received my postcard. Did you???

CookieZenmilk 01-21-2019 04:52 PM

oh i was away for a quilting retreat in Maine. there were 55 of us. a major snowstorm was to hit and 40 of them left. the remaining quilters had the place to ourselves and we really enjoyed sewing while a blizzard raged outside. made some new friends.

cuppy 01-23-2019 12:43 AM

Not yet I am checking every day. Hopefully soon

cuppy 01-23-2019 12:51 AM

Thank you CookieZenmilk. I just noticed that I forgot to edge stitch around the balloons. That was my first time free motion quilting numbers.
