Just a quick little note to let you know I am alive and well. Just back from a quilting retreat with some dear friends. The photo above is one I took on one of our outings. Maybe you can guess where I was?
I will have to tell you about it in another post though. I came home to a broken thermostat and my house is freezing! My nose is running, my fingers are so cold they won't work, and I need to crawl under the down comforter and try to warm up right now.
Normal posting will resume tomorrow.

I think you were wherever Thelma was, as she has just posted a photo of the same quilt! Hope you get your heating fixed soon – ours broke 3 times last week (it only ever breaks when the temperature drops below freezing – useful eh?). Maybe wrap yourself up in a cozy quilt until it is fixed! x
I think you went South to Road to Ca. I was there too for the first time. Four of us quilt crazy ladies took a road trip. Great fun! I hope you had a good time too!

Hope you had fun. When our electricity was out last week, I was so glad I am a quilter not a scrap booker! Hope you were able to get warm.
I bet you took The Road to CA! I went to a small quilt show in that area probably 40 years ago. It was the quilty work done by inmates of the Chino women’s prison. It was the ONE show I went to where I convinced myself I needed to learn to quilt. Very inspiring. I have now made easily over 100 quilts. But, none like the quilt in your photo which is over the moon. It’s good to be inspired.
P.S. Go stay with Eva or Grampa till the heating & cooling guy-fixer can meet you at your house! Hope you warm up soon!
So sorry your home is too cold to be comfy. I agree with Stephani that you should bunk with E or Grandpa until all is cozy once more. Where is Ozzie staying? You might go there or take him with you to the warm place. Hope your heating is repaired today.
I had no clue about the quilt and where you and your friends went. Love the beautiful Feathered Star quilt. I don’t aspire to make one Feathered Star, much less five! That amazing border is also daunting.
Hugs!
Sure hope you can get a repairman out today! That quilt is beautiful as are the other ones showing up in Blogland! Glad you were able to meet up with friends for a fun getaway!! So fun!
Stay warm!
Hmmm… wherever Thelma was, so were you. There’s nothing worse than being either too hot or too cold. Second thoughts, too hot is worse for quilters – at least we have piles of quilts to keep warm under.
You were with Thelma! Lucky you to go to the Road to CA! Sorry abt the heat!
LaConner, Washington would be quite a jaunt for a retreat but the quilt museum there is my guess.
Glad you were able to meet up with Thelma! Sorry about your heat not working. BRRRR!
It looks like a Rhonda Beyer quilt??? Were you in Oregon? I know RTC was just on, but that seems too easy to guess!
I hope the thermostat is fixed quickly!!!
That quilt is stunning!!! Thank you for sharing!
Lucky!!! I’m pretty sure you were hanging with Thelma…what fun! Going to Road to CA is on my bucket list 🙂
That quilt was one of my favorites at the show! Wasn’t the quilting fabulous?! I came home to a leaking water heater. DH is attempting to replace it as I type. I’m ready for a hot shower.
I LOVE that quilt!!! Beautiful! Dang! Sorry you’re freezing…go to grandpa’s….he has heat and would enjoy your company. ;p
