Still soliciting eateries... General advice...
Anyone else going to the show?
I am putting my neame in the hat for each & everyone. I have been wondering about hand piecing & Inklingo specifically for like forever... I own 3 books on hand piecing (2 by Linda Franz & 1 by Jinny Beyer), but I have never tried it... I am thinking that with a kit, I'd actually give it a go. http://inklingoprojects.blogspot.com/OH CR@P! I have no idea why, but when the comment thingy is embedded in the post (Like on the inklingo blog) I can not post a comment. For the record, I have NEVER been able to leave a comment in this scenario... Oh well... I guess this is a sign that a.) I don't need another project, b.) I don't need to learn a new technique, c.) I could keep whining...

Well yes, you should. You know Cathi would love nothing more than for you to start that. It would be wonderful.
O M Goodness! I can see the mall at Clackamas from my bathroom window!
Holly and Dot live within 20 minutes or so, Cher lives about 40 minutes away.
I have been busy crocheting, altho I did iron quilt pieces and i spray basted a small quilt. Not really doing much fabric for the moment.
Oh, I'd like to encourage your trying hand-quilting. A kit is not necessary. The technique does have some slight differences from machine piecing, but nothing hard, AND the project is portable. I recently remade two botched blocks from an unfinished Thirties quilt top I bought. I had forgotten how relaxing it is to hand piece, and I was happy to finish the quilt center in the same way the original maker had started it. Now I am making applique borders with vine and flowers from feedsack material--but I intend to machine applique, I admit. Need it finished up to celebrate a big occasion! (Our daughter is now a newly-minted Ph.D. She doesn't quilt, but she loves 'em. She knits.)
