I am soooo excited, I just have to share with all of you. I won Best Use of Color at the Orangeburg County Fair. Double Delight pattern from Bonnie Hunter at www.quiltville.com
This was year before lasts mystery quilt. Thanks Bonnie for a great pattern and getting me out of my box with colors. I just love this quilt.
Omigosh! still working on this quilt. Got 5 rows together in rows. I might be able to see the end of this??? LOL Had to stop for a few days to get over the stomach virus. 48 hrs.You dont want it!
Now I am getting ready for quilt retreat. I am taking a Mystery quilt class. I have just finished cutting all my clues and have them bagged up. Now to wash close and pack my sewing machine and I will be ready to go. Cant wait to see all my friend from all over SC. It is so much fun to renew friendships and make new ones.
Happy Quilting,

Back troubles

Report on back. Got to have more tests. ULCK!!! the nerve test. You know where they do the electric shock stuff. Will be about 2 to 3 weeks to get an appt for that. SOOO, I plug along.

NOW for the good news. I might go to Houston to Quilt Festival. DH and I were talking last nite about what to do for our anniversary this year, 25. He asked if there were any big quilt shows coming up. Of course, LOL. We are thinking of flying down, renting a car and doing sight seeing after the show, NASA, San Antonio, Austin. We have a niece in Austin. So sounds like fun. I think this may make my back feel better???

Ok, I know I have to get you some pictures. That is the best part of bloggin, so will try to get a few soon.

Happy Quilting,
Vicki
