Fun with Marsha

Although I took the Blended Quilts workshop, Marsha McCloskey is well known for her Feathered Star Quilts too. This shot is one of her and a feathered star she showed at the luncheon and "Trunk Show."
Fun weekend and inspiring!
Here is a picture of classmates work using Marsha's new line of fabrics.

Missed August and Quilting

Here it is Sept. and I am back to school with everyone else. Seems it is off to a good start. Already finished teaching grad. nursing informatics compressed in Aug. Now for undergrad. community nursing students until December. There is no quilting in sight as I also get back to writing the "big" paper for IU. Wish me well...it is an uphill battle and very slow going...but I will be persistent.

Blended Star #8

Well, now that the first 2 weeks of school are complete and basketball tournaments and band programs are over for the time being.... I am hoping that things slow down a little so I can sew again! Thanks to Supermom I have a nice design wall to audition fabric choices for more blended blocks. I also want to work on the homespun baby boy quilt, piecing the top so I can send to my fav sister-in-law to quilt and send on to baby cousin in Wisconsin. (est. date)

Baltimore Album Quilts...in Baltimore!

Back from a conference in Baltimore and took a few hours to hike up to the Maryland Historical Society Museum that has several Baltimore Album and other quilts in addition to a large array of paintings and historical pieces. They had several quilts on display. This pieced and appliqued one was my favorite (although not in the traditional Baltimore style). They have a very nice online gallery that includes more than what was on display as they rotate the display quilts for preservation purposes. Click the logo to visit take a quilt tour. Now back to the dreaded writing...
