I thought I should update this since I am no longer in quilter's prison. Plus my grandpet Mella has gone to doggie heaven. He was a good doggie. I have now been married almost 37 years, and DH still is my quilting enabler. This year, I have made tons of friends since joining Quilt with Us, seen tons of gorgeous quilts, made a trip to Des Moines to the quilt show with my SIL, and met about 20 online friends in person. That was such a kick! Oh yeah, and somehow I have turned into a froggie instead of a prisoner. And gone a bit nuttier, I think.

Hey, any other Okies out there? I just signed up for the block of the month and can't wait to get my pattern! I have been quilting about ten years now, and sewing since I was five. We would sit on the porch making clothes for our Barbies out of scraps. I love a wide variety of fabrics-batiks, Civil War, I even got some funky 70's prints on a recent trip to San Francisco. They had some great fabrics. Now I just need for that fabric to talk to me so I can start working on it. Oh well, I have…

Great, I feel we already are, so we will make it official.
Hey, Linda! I love your sense of humor! It's always fun to read your posts, so keep them up! You have some very nice quilts and lots of snow, too! Take care and stay in touch! Karla
You can find info on the shop at www.brooklynfabric.com or I have a facebook page, just search Brooklyn Fabric Company. I don't have the American Made Brand fabric up yet. UPS says its coming this week. As soon as I have it unpacked and on the shelves, I will be posting on the website and facebook page. Thanks
Well duh sorry I asked that stupid question.Went on the site,lots of nice designs.Thanks for the info
What is SWAK embroidery? I have had health problems for months and finally had surgery in Dec.am doing a little chemo now.Thanks for asking.
I love your froggie mat and wondered where you got the pattern?
I have a soft yellow in my sewing room and I like it a lot. It doesn't seem to distort the colors but I have a nice big ceiling light fixture to keep things bright. Something like school bus yellow would not be the same. I am anxious for my kit to arrive but thinking at least Weds as it was mailed on the 8th. I have lots to do anyway. Weather has warmed up some and actually got up to 30* today...felt like a heat wave. Jan/Feb are usually pretty nasty here so won't celebrate yet.
With a grandma like you, those grandsons of yours will be just fine. Keep loving them and letting them know you are there. Hugs to you and your family always. Hang in there my friend.
Froggie, I'm the same way. I'm quite and shy...until one gets to know me well. Then I'm pretty crazy at times.
Froggie, you crack me up! LOL! In REAL LIFE I am the wall flower that hides at the back of the rooms though, so ignoring me is natural.
Just saw my Pfaff dealer has the new AG designs out. I really like the Neighborhood Quilt. I may splurge on that one. But goodness knows I have to get better at embroidering first.
