Where did August go?!

Here I am again at the end of a month, wondering what the heck I accomplished.

I need to take this time to look back and remind myself that I do indeed do something with my time.

Tops to Treasures had another very busy month.  15 quilts were quilted!

 

 

S'more Mountains appeared on Moda Bakeshop

 



 

 

I spent a week in Kentucky...



 

 

Went to a quilt show....

 



 

Pack my son off to college...

 

 

 

Received three of my Star of Africa blocks!!

 



 

Thanks again to Fiona, Patti, and Benta.

 

Taught a class and got three more patterns approved for the Bakeshop....oh and I have been feverishly working on S'more Rows, a free row-a-long that starts here on September 16.

 

I'd say I did a little more than sit on my rump and eat chocolates.

Quilt Plano 2011...part 2

The quilting on this one is amazing, but what drew me to it is the color....and that one blue pumpkin.

I can't imagine making this quilt, but I knew my blogging/flicker friends would love it.

I couldn't resist this incredible owl. His feathers called out to be stoked and pet, they swayed in the breezes created as people passed by...but I resisted. The best I could do is take his picture to share.

I visited with Sandy last night. Tom is hand embroidered with chenille and feathers. His eyes are antique buttons. Sandy is in the process of opening a retreat house north of Anna, Texas. Tom will be there to great visiting quilters.

I went to the quilt show with my Mom. We go on lots of adventures together. This time I found out that I like birds...Mom told me so. As I thought about it I decided she was right. Pictures of fat little birds make me happy inside. I hope you like this one too.

It was a great show. I hope you enjoyed visiting some of it with me,

Until next time,
Cindy
