At the end of July, we had our 2nd Annual Chica's Weekend. Denise of My Whittle Adventures and Regena of The Distracted Domestic drove down to visit with Karen of Sew Much 2 Luv and I.
We saw some amazing quilts at the festival. We also had several friends join us - Sam, Oma, and Marcia - it was a great day!
We spent a day at the International Quilt Festival and a day sewing on our swap blocks. We bought the charm packs last year at the IQF.
Then I had a business trip to Iowa and I found this little quilt shop that I had to stop in to see. Found room in the suitcase for all my goodies.
Sam, recommended I visit Country Threads shop in Iowa when I was there, but it was too far, so I ordered online of course!. I bought this quilt pattern called America's Quilt
Then yesterday, it was HOT, and I mean HOT for around our parts. Too hot to garden or do much, so I stayed in and sewed. This is my version of the America's Quilt. Earth tones, to go in our master bedroom. Not so patriotic now, but in person the colors really do blend really well.
