arrowhead quilt

Thank you ladies who came to our class last Saturday! It was a full class with 8 students.  I just love it when that happens!  Everyone is so busy cutting and sewing, seam ripping and sewing again.

Arrowhead Quilt

Isn't it fun to see how different the fabrics are?  This is my favorite part.  Laying out the blocks and deciding what looks best.

Thanks Mary for teaching! We loved it and can't wait for you to visit again.

This is a whole other story....

visiting teacher

Both of my sisters are coming to visit at the end of the month!  I am crazy excited about it.  We have been luckier than most families who live far apart, since I just saw both Mary and Judith in January.

Judith (middle) turned 50 and we were in Massachusetts for her birthday.

I went cross country skiing for the first time!

Now it's their turn to come home to California.  Our mom is celebrating her 80th birthday with a family reunion.

While they are here visiting, I have asked my sister Mary to teach a quilting class!  So if you sign up early to save your seat, she will teach you how to make the Arrowhead Quilt.

Every month we meet in the shop to sew Pillowcases for Soldiers.

And I know many of you love to sew, but don't have the time

to come in and sew with us.

Today, I finally took some time and looked up a video tutorial.

This is a great video from Missouri Star Quilt Co.
