Barn Quilts, Stash Reports and Things I Need To Get Done

I heard from Julie Sefton about the Barn Quilts we made as part of the process testing for her book Build A Barn.  Gallery quilts will be displayed at Chattanooga (SEPT) and Des Moines (OCT)  then Memphis (early NOV) before they head home to each of you.

If you get a chance to see any of the show, take some photos for me! 

I did nothing again this week, so stash report remains the same.  But on the good side, I didn't buy anything either!  LOL.  "Even" is a good thing.

I went to the CFAL (Contemporary Fiber Artists of Louisiana) meeting this afternoon.  So much is happening.  there are so many classes coming up, remember the metals class I took last year?  Mary Hettsmansperger is coming again in July!  I am over the top  about that. 

Now I know I need a blow torch.  It is a sign from the gods. 

We also have several fiber classes, a Photoshop workshop and a beading class coming up.

And there are two shows.  One in Sulphur La, but I don't think I will enter anything in that one.  The other will be in February 2017 at the Old State Capitol.  I am all over that one.  So expect great things from that one.

I have a fiber group meeting this Wednesday I have nothing made for, I need to finish upteen bindings, I have a bazillion to be quilted and finished and I have a Cotton and a Modern Robin to keep up with.  

But it is exciting, all this work to do.  

Considering didn't even step into my Quilt Room in two weeks, I really need to work this week to catch up.

Oh, and we bought a new fountain.  The old one had a leak in the pan.  It will be installed on Monday.  I will put goldfish in it to keep the mosquito larvae out of it.

I have to do some research on that to make sure the fish don't get sucked into the fountain and their little fishy guts don't get spewed into the air on a stream of water.............
