Well, it's really July 14th, not the 6th. It's taken me a couple of weeks to get finished with this entry so I could post it...So here's some of what's been going on.
My youngest, her baby boy and I did the Wasatch Shop Hop a few weeks ago. We had 4 days to "Hop" to 15 "Shops" and we did it in 2!
Our first stop:
Our first stop:
Day one--we had only planned on going to a couple of shops and finishing up on Fri and Sat, but K was doing really well and so we decided to go for broke. We got in 7 shops on Wed, took Thurs off because we both had to work and instead of taking Fri and Sat to finish up we were able to finish up on Friday, but only with the help of L's inlaw's GPS. I don't think we would have finished, even on Sat had we not had the GPS. If you don't have one, I highly recommend getting one. I think they start around $150 and are worth every cent, espically if your're direction challenged, as I am.
Our second stop and my favorite local quilt shop - The Corn Wagon:

We had a lot of fun seeing all of the quilts and fabrics and everything else that was on display and available. Lots of new ideas swimming around in my head but I decided to jot the ideas down and file them for later because I have several wips going right now that I want to finish up.
A couple more of the shops that we stopped at--tonz o fuuun!
And for those old car/truck buffs--this one's for you--It's a 1958 (I think). It was at one of the shops we stopped at--pretty cool, don't ya think?
Here are a few more quilt blocks that I've been working on...
Blocks 7, 8 and 9
YIKES!!! I flipped 4 of the sqs on
this one...at least I'm consistant...
Looks like I'll be getting the seam
ripper out...If you squint, you can
still see the star.
Hummm, I'm liking the red and turquoise combo...another idea...
And this one is block 3 of the BOM that I'm working on
I hope that you all have a great week! ;)
