Getting ready to head to Pittsburg, Kansas

I was reminded last night at the quilt guild meeting (thank you Emily) that I had not blogged for quite awhile, so here goes:

We are heading for Pittsburg this weekend for the Little Balkans Quilt Show. They always have very nice quilts and wonderful vendors. We will be demonstrating our fusible cell phone bags, the fabric greeting cards, and of course, the Bohin Chalk Marking Pencil. If you have not used this pencil, you are really missing out. It glides on smoothly, stays the same width through the whole marking process and removes easily. But, not no easily that it will disappear before you are ready.

We finally have extras of the bobbin holders and the new Clover thimbles. It is so exciting to be able to talk about new toys, that of course we all need in our sewing rooms. The class schedule is heading to the web page in a couple of days. I don't have all the dates confirmed yet, but you will be able to see what the choices are going to be.

I have even gotten to sew lately, making two of the "Grids and Grommets" tote bags for friends. It is fun to ignore paper work for a while and sew. Hope to see all of you soon, whether in Pittsburg, in the shop or further on down the road.

Happy Quilting!
