Back to Work

Hello quilters!
I've got enough snow here in West Virginia for everybody!!! Great for working on my quilting but after 3 weeks I was ready to get back to work.
After my bus run I stopped by JoAnn's to check out their sale and come home with lots of goodies; notions,thread,glue sticks,and a really neat thingy that you can lay on a flat surface and iron on. It's kind of small and don't take up much space.( You should have seen what I was ironing on!) It's great for my little pieces for my quilt blocks.
Got my book from Crafters Choice about free motion quilting and It's great! Can't wait to try some of the techniques! (Love getting neat stuff in the mail) Still not smoking and enjoy my new singer. Just wanted to post something to feel like I'm still in the loop. Hope to hear from someone soon. Just to know I found you! Hugs!

    Hello! Welcome. It's great to see you here. I can take some of that snow off your hands, no worries! Don't you just love a sale? You certainly bagged some goodies. I tried free motion pebbles the other day - not perfect but it's a start. Keep away from the evil smokes - what about putting aside the money you used to spend on them for fabric or a pattern you've always wanted? Happy Stitching, Ann :-)

    I have found you, too! The sale sounds like fun, you got some good stuff. I like Ann's suggestion of putting the money you are saving by not smoking and using it for fabric! You can never have too much fabric and quilting keeps your hands busy! ! !

    Seems like the gang's almost all here! That's a GOOD thing! I don't envy you the snow; I had all I wanted here in Texas on Christmas Eve! Lovely, but kids couldn't get here --- Texans don't drive well in snow and ice!
    I'm looking forward to some pictures!
