My eye continues to improve, one more appointment with the specialist. It has come with Blessings of meeting another wonderful quilter in my area...she and my neighbor (who owns the long arm machine) and bf went on an Iowa Shop Hop last Friday, June 6th, after my appointment in Des Moines...hit five quilt shops before five o'clock and wore ourselves out. (One stitchery shop, bakery and meat shop in Pella) It was sooo much fun, I am ready to do it again in a New York minute....watching those dedicated quilters was like a joy of Christmas time discovering each new gift under the tree; as they discovering all new treasures and possibilities at each shop. A new one to us was the one in Newton, Iowa, and everyone wants to return there.

With a new seam ripper from Quilt in a Day that has a magnifer and light, I am seeing well enough to rip out old shastings and put in new ones to finish a couple of quilts and starting a couple more for DS...Stormy River and a green/white scrappy quilt. How did I ever quilt without that tool....I love it!!!
