February 19, 2013 – Quilting my way through life!

Have your heard about Moda’s Signature Quilt along?

I hadn’t until I decided to bop on over to Moda Lissa’s blog yesterday for no apparent reason.

I decided it must be Kismet…

and so I printed out the 3 block instructions for the day…

decided on a fat 1/4 bundle that I’d bought at Paducah ??? years ago…

that actually was a 1/2 yard bundle, but it was so long ago I had forgotten…

Today I started sewing…

Basic Grey Block #22.

There are 3, 9″ blocks each day for 10 days; this week and next, no weekends.

So, 30 blocks in all. That’s a 5 x 6 setting. 45″ x 54″ without sashing or borders.

Not sure how long I’ll last, but I couldn’t resist!

How about you???

Until next time,

Susan

I didn’t realize just how long it had been since I’d posted!

What have I been doing you ask???

Well, for starters I turned a year older. Need I say more, lol…

OK,

I was working on my Christmas sampler, then

I went on our annual retreat with friends to Rosemary’s.

Then went to Mexico for a week with my husband.

Did a little radio interview about quilting on the Cityscapes program on St. Louis Public Radio, 90.7 KWMU.

You can listen to the interview with Steve Potter here.

I told you 2013 had some new & interesting things for Suzn Quilts.

Helped my oldest, Chloe, celebrate her 21st birthday!

It’s no wonder I’m tired…

Now that these things are over I need to get back to my Christmas designs for Portland’s Spring Market in May.

What have you been up to?

I hope it involves quilting!

Until next time,

Susan
