Yikes!! I got my March, 2008 Quilters Newsletter a couple days ago. Thumbing through it, I noticed, on page 23, a 2/3 page ad from a very famous place for a Fanciful Felines kit. It cost $69.98. It's the exact same kit we made up, except we tweaked the free pattern from Benartex, the fabric company, to improve it, and made copies for the kits. Our kit is $22.50. Check it out under our "kits".
Hey, Everyone - it's been too long since I've written; I was out of town for a week and my computer was out of house for a WEEK being fixed. But now we're reunited and I hope my PC is as happy about it as I am. I missed her. I knew when I left her at the fixit shop that no work would get done: no signs or labels for the store, no bookkeeping, no quilt designing, no blogging. But it was much worse than that. I've never considered myself a "computer" person - any time I've spent with my computer was necessary; nothing frivolous like surfing; she's a tool. However, I realized the first day she wasn't here that she's an integral part of my routine; I have my cup of coffee with her in the morning and I sit with her as soon as I get home from work (well, after greeting my dogs for several minutes). I rambled around the house trying to figure out what to do with myself and all that free time. It was so unexpected. So, in the future, I'll edit my negative remarks about her and keep in mind how I really feel about her.
The Autumn Quilt is done and the charts for kitting are so close to being finished. Do you have any druthers about whether it's a Block of the Month) where I charge your credit card and mail you a block kit every month) or one big, fat kit? Please let me know.
This is new today - called Flirtations - from a group by Sandy Gervais for Moda. It's 28" x 32" and the kit is $16. It goes together fast, fast, fast.
