LANDSCAPE CLASS TAUGHT

Denise Peeters
Debbie Pine






I taught a LANDSCAPE class at Quilter's Heaven
this week.
It was a class that forced
traditional
quilters to think outside their
comfort zone because there was
NO PATTERN and they practiced
freemotion thread arts. We made up the mountain scene as we created. I think you can tell by the smile on
their faces that they were very happy with themselves.They all still have"homework" but I am so proud of them for trying the new technique.!

Nancy Goodman
discovered how to
write her name using
her freemotion skills.
She was one happy woman!

MONTANA ANNIE GOT HER BIG BUCK




My daughter-in-law, Annie got her big buck today.
My son Jim and Annie live in Great Falls, Montana.
Hunting is a way of life for many in Montana and I am
sure come Monday morning, Jim will be brag'n
to all his co-workers about his "Annie Oakley!"

Sense of Touch





PostCardMailArt is a fiber postcard group
on yahoo. I love this group. It gets my
creative juices moving. We make tons
of our little pieces of art that we mail all
around the world. Its like having a pen pen or
swapping my postcard for yours like my brothers
did with their beloved baseball cards.

Usually the swaps have a criteria or theme.
This particular swap is call "A Sense of Touch."
The criteria was about surface design. The swaps
I enjoy the most are the ones that lots of different
fibers are incorporated.

HOW MANY FIBERS DO YOU SEE IN THIS POSTCARD?

The First Big Frost


Chicagoland had its first hard frost today. I am NOT READY for winter! I hate winter. I want to retire to Utopia.
I want to live by the ocean. I dream for a place that is sunny all year long, the temperature is always between 65 to 80 degrees and it only rains at night. Oh, it would be a bonus if there was a money tree out my back deck too.

What Do Angels Look Like?


This morning I was thinking about a new swap that I
am putting together in my postcard group in yahoo.

What do angels look like?

I could show a pictures of my granddaughter, Rylan
because when you look into her precious little face,
anyone would say, "What an angel."
Some nights when I get home late from work and I
am really pooped... that pizza guy looks like an angel to me.
When Dave bought my mid arm for me because I
wanted to do my own quilting... ohhhh I treated him like
a super angel for quite a few nights.
And when I am down or sad and I close my eyes,
put my hands together to pray...those angels are
beautiful, mysterious and glorious.
So....What Does Your Angel Look Like?
