The Maiden Quilt Class

The quilt class went GREAT! What a nice time we had laughing and chatting while learning a new project. It was a small class thankfully, it's school vacation week here so quite a number of the ladies didn't want to bring their kids so opted to start next week child free. I only had 5 and that was the perfect number to start with. I got there an hour or so early to get everything set up so that I'd be ready to roll when everyone came in and we were off and running.

No one cut off any fingers with their rotary cutters, no one stitched their finger into their fabric with the machine needle and everyone made excellent progress. I am really excited for them because they are really gung ho about their quilts and are already planning to make more.

We haven't come up with a name for our group yet. A few possibilities were tossed around but nothing really catchy that we all liked. Any suggestions anyone????

So all that 'fretting' over this was just wasted time and useless stress eating. Well, the stress eating part was fun........

I am going to take some pictures of their progress so you will be subjected to that but at least it will be a change from all of the kitty pictures who btw are still just a joy! I woke up in the night and Noodles was asleep right on Husband's chest! I removed him very carefully and he climbed right back up there so I figured they would have to work it out between them and I went back to sleep.

So glad to hear your class went well!
I'm sure you'll all come up with a cute name.
Vincent would love to sleep with us, but I can't take a 20# weight on me while I sleep! Makes me feel like I'm suffocating!!
