However, I'm getting back into the mainstream of life full speed ahead, so look out World, here I come!!:) Life is still full of many blessings!

It is called Glacier for obvious reasons and the design is by Lisa Moore. I finally made it this spring. It is hard to tell from the photos, but there are about 400 heat set crystals to make it catch the light like a real glacier. Hope you like it.

I am also looking to the new year to get creative again. We also lost a family member and I have had some health issues and while I wasn't paying attention the Sewing Room Gremlins took up residence in my sewing room and have made a terrible mess. I know there is a cutting table under there somewhere......

So much fabric, so little time....

The right fabrics really make this quilt - yours are beautiful.
