Always get me down....
But I pull myself back up by the bootstraps!
Lots of rain yesterday- I live in the high desert and don't usually get a full day of rain. I grew up in Seattle area and thought I left the wet for good!
I am scheduled to do a lecture and class on this quilt later this month in Victoria, TX. I was warned that the guild doesn't like to take classes but I do not have anyone signed up :(
I'll try not to take it personal.
Blue Ridge Rendezvous is such a fun class! It is based on an antique and includes the fun 1/2 blocks and this great zig zag setting! It is called that because I made it when I was with Bonnie Hunter at her first cabin in the Blue Ridge Mtns.
I've also had 2 guilds say they were interested, then back out when it came time to fit me in their schedule. I really am trying to stay positive about the whole thing. I use the money from the lectures and workshops to finance a good portion of my mission trips, so I guess I'll need to find an alternative plan.
I met this lovely lady, Debbie, in Houston when we both volunteered for the first time in 2016. We were roommates and hit it off instantly. I'll be spending time with her in TX
and I am really looking forward to that.
And because I embroidered this date on my Liberty quilt, we'll need to go full speed ahead to finish it this year! The designer of the quilt we are working on, Cheri Payne, passed away from cancer on Sunday. She was surrounded by her family and she knew she was loved deeply by her family and the quilt community.
Let's make it a great week!
