Attention

After my Pay It Forward post, on the first, I sent out emails to the three participants.  I've only heard back from one, Regan of Floating on a Quilted Cloud.  I need mailing address and favorite color from the other two, you know who you are.  Rather than me sending another email, because that may have been the problem, please click the little envelope, under my profile photo, and send the info. to me.  There's still plenty of time, but I hate letting things slide.

Because every post needs a photo, I threw in a non-quilty one, hollyhocks in my side yard.

May your bobbins always be full,

What Is It Like To Lose Your Sewing Supplies?

What Is It Like To Lose Your Sewing Supplies?

That's the question Thearica of Pigtales and Quilts asked in her post yesterday.  She lives in NC, but her best friend Debbie lost her home and all of her belongings due to the fires in Oklahoma over the weekend.  She's asking the quilting community to pitch in and help rebuild Debbie's stash of quilting and sewing supplies.  Please go over to Thearica's blog and see how you can help.  I put a package in the mail, today.

Because every post needs a photo, this is a sample quilt hanging in City Quilter, NYC.  Stop by when you're in NYC.

May your bobbins always be full,
