Busy, Busy...

I can't believe it's been almost a week since I last posted. My son recovered fine from his stomach virus, but my daughter came home at noon on Friday with a headache. Hubby came home from a business trip around noon and the whole family was together. It was kind-of nice.

I am the workshop chairperson for my quilt guild and we had our meeting this past Saturday. We had the Singing Quilters, who were suprisingly entertaining, for our program. Our workshop was to make quilts For Those in Need. We had 58 people sign up to attend and ended up having about 50 ladies stay to work on quilts. It was so heartening to see so many there helping! The month before was another great turnout when 17 members of our guild demonstrated their unique talents in quilting. We had well over 100 stay for that workshop. It's been great to see the membership step up and embrace our classes and programs.

My daughter got glasses last week. She only needs them during school to see the board so I don't see her wearing them. But she looks good in glasses and was excited to get them. She said she couldn't believe how much better she can see! This child has wanted glasses for years...and had perfect vision. Careful what you wish for!

So after a long day Saturday, hubby and I were wondering what we should do Sunday morning. He says "maybe we should rearrange the bedroom furniture." Three days later we have a newly painted and rearranged bedroom. It was a lot of hard work, because the ceiling was painted also. But it looks beautiful. I feel like it's more of a retreat now. We painted the ceiling Parisian Taupe and the walls Spiced Nutmeg. And somehow it all works with the scrappy delectable mountains quilt on our bed. I'll upload pictures tomorrow...

I finally finished the second double wedding ring quilt from the same client. And I took it to show off (with her permission) at the guild show and tell on Saturday. What happened after that? I came home with tops to quilt for three new customers!!!! Wow, that's pretty exciting! I now have a waiting list! I am so blessed...
