DOES THIS MAKE YOU THINK OF SPRING?

Not much happening around here.  Rain, snow, sleet, hail…that’s just about it!  Above is what I’ve been working on.  The pattern is Clovers & Jam by Fig Tree & Co.  I started it while on retreat last November.  Maybe I’ll get the borders on soon and get it quilted.  Mainly, I just wanted to grab your attention and point out the upcoming events at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.

HAPPENINGS AT THE ATTIC WINDOW
  • UFO Day on Monday, Feb. 25. This is a great time to get out of the house and work on those put-aside projects.
  • Applique Bee meets Tuesday, Feb. 25 from 1-4 p.m.  This is a new Bee and all are welcome to come sit and sew.  From time to time we will have demonstrations.
  • The Modern Bee will meet on Wednesday, Feb. 26, from 10-2.  This is a new Bee being formed for those who are interested in Modern Quilting.  This initial meeting we will be discussing what modern quilting is and discuss what our meetings will involve.  Also information will be distributed about the Great Lakes Modern Quilt Guild and how we can participate in that.
ON ANOTHER NOTE: Craft Passion has a tutorial for a darling Secret Garden Trapunto Quilt.  You will have to make several clicks to get the entire pattern.   It will put you in the mood for spring.

Until next time,

Stay Calm! Stay Kind! Stay Positive!
