I had a social life this week!

We order craft, quilting, and needlecraft books from Edward Hamilton Booksellers.....they have some REALLY great LOW prices!  They're on the internet too...check them out!  We send all our orders together as one so we save on shipping....smart huh?

This lady is SO talented!  Everything she does is beautiful.  She's inspiring and oh, how many unfinished cross-stitch projects do I have waiting in the wings?  Woe is me....

Here is a wall hanging that is in-progress but SO CUTE!!!!  I love crows and primitive styles and those colors of Fall are right up my alley.   LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!

This is GORGEOUS in all neutrals.  The picture doesn't do it justice and of course the blocks are not together yet.  But it's going to be a beauty!

This is all hand -done and hand quilted by a woman who judges quilts...they told me this AFTER I showed my first hand quilting attempt....but she gave me some tips and I learned from her....after I crawled out of the hole.

This is a sewing machine cover....I want it!!!!
Wow!  I was gone 2 days this week!  I had Fit n' Sew, a group of all ages and all stages of needlework and fiber arts of all kinds!   It's pretty much all day at the fairgrounds and sponsored by the county extension.  We bring whatever we're working on and lots of "goodies" of the edible type and there is always someone teaching some type of skill or project which you can partake in or just watch and work on your own project.  It meets once a month and I love it!   Here are some of the people, projects and talent at this month's meeting.
