I also put together my mini blooms from my last post. I'm not sure what to do next. It's just meant to be a small table topper, but I don't know how to finish it. Any suggestions are welcome.
Three weeks ago, I went to a Quilt retreat at a lovely quilt B&B. I got most of a flimsy done, a couple of blocks for my diary quilt, and a bunch of fan blades for a fan quilt that I'm still designing in my head. Lots of quilting and gabbing, but not much sleep
The following week I went on a scrapbooking retreat. I don't scrapbook much any more, since i quilt and blog, but it's my annual girl getaway with my college roommate
Then last weekend was my birthday weekend. Hubby had bought a Groupon deal for a restaurant down near Baltimore, so we went down for dinner and some shopping. We had some extra time on our hands, so i convinced him that we should check out the nearest quilt shop. As I was walking toward the building, I noticed a stitching shop next door, so I went in there first. Without really meaning to, I spent all my birthday money! Then I went into the quilt shop, but I didn't find much of interest to me. Dinner was wonderful! It was our first Groupon experience, and we were very happy with the experience.
Well, I have more to tell you, but I'm falling asleep, so will be back tomorrow.
Counting my blessings.....Sunny
