I'm In Your House - Where I Always Feel at Home





You and your DH are fast asleep and I'm on West Coast time. I decided I'd post something on our blog that I've been meaning to post for 2 years. It's the time I took two classes from John Flynn in Long Beach California. The classes were glorious, I was in the zone and John was a fabulous teacher. I had a secret crush on him because he had a seam ripper in his pocket. He's a married man and I can carry my own seam ripper but there is something sexy about a man with a seam ripper. He irons too but I've had men who can iron.


I sat in the back of the classroom because you weren't with me and I had no one to race with!

The Cake Ladies


Here's what I thought about for you as a present- I didn't because I knew in a million years you wouldn't wear it!

These are some of the samples John brought with him to inspire us. The quilting is amazing. 














I've finished the two tops I started in the class- well I finished the tops and I will post photos of them when I get back to California. Good night for now - it's time for fabric dreams. p.s. Do you know how to use wonder under? Maybe you could do a lesson on our blog to help me out.

hello...hello...hello...hello...it's an echo not Lionel Ritchie

I have sworn myself from going on line and buying fabric. It's been a struggle- It was my New Years resolution - I have bought little bits of fabric but only to make pillowcases for people with cancer....that sounds a little melodramatic however it's true. Ann- there's so much great fabric out there and I would love it so: like this from Fort Worth Fabric Studio.



well not everything there is necessary to buy.
They do have your moda sweet moda
The gold fabric is from moda and it's called grunge- it comes in lots of colors....yum.

Sending you these photos has satisfied my fabric craving for the night. Sweet dreams!
