JUST SOME STUFF

Look what arrived in Lancaster, PA this week, all the way from Salt Lake City, UT. OK, so it's just a truck. But it is a very nice RED truck and it did haul all sorts of Handiquilter stuff. AND ... My picture is on BOTH sides of this truck. I'm 2nd from the left. Imagine - my photo traveling across the country for all to see ... darn good thing I'm not in the witness protection program!
On Sunday, I attended a fiber festival here in MD. I bought some really soft sock yarn. The color is tangerine. It's not quite as bright orange as this picture. I do hope to make these socks soon. But then ... I ALWAYS hope to make stuff soon. Sometimes soon takes awhile.
I also purchased this giant multi-hank of yarny goodness. It's all dyed the same but it's 12 different types of yarn. Someday it will be a beautiful sweater. That is, if I can bring myself to divide it up and wind it. It's just so pretty and soft the way it is.
And ... because I haven't posted any in a little while, thought you might enjoy a little peak at my "big girl" kitty - Diva. She was napping this afternoon and a long morning of ... napping.

Quick Note

Do you get this magazine? Check out page 25 ... it's ME advertizing Handiquilter1
This is my 3rd finished quilt top this weekend. I'm still working with the same set of 2.5" strips and some yardage. Yes, I am getting a little tired of red,white and blue. BUT - I still have a bag of 1.5" strips to use. I going to keep on until there are none left. well ... except for the little cut off bits that I'll save but only if they're at least 2.5" square. AND only if I can sneak them back into my bag without Donna's intervention. She thinks I might need a 12-step program for m scrap addiction.If you're a Bonnie Hunter fan, you need to check out this blog - Bed of Roses for a great giveaway.
