I can't believe I haven't made a post in a month! This February has been just nuts. All of my free time has been devoted to other endeavors, like searching out a good elementary school for our daughter who will start kindergarten in the fall (lots of round-ups, open houses and applications), filing our taxes, working on the quarterly GIG newsletter, starting seeds for the 2011 garden, not to mention all the regular stuff that needs taken care of. Happily it's almost over. ;^)

I have spent exactly two hours in my sewing room this month so not a lot to show. I worked a bit more on my sister's quilt and I also started cutting out the fabric for the Love Bubbles quilt.

Just to show how busy I've been I couldn't even manage to finish a mug rug for the PMQG meeting.

I managed to get it pinned but nothing else! How sad.


I did manage to sneak out of the house twice this month on quilt related sojourns. The first to the February PMQG meeting. Those are always so much fun. I even won glue! I've never used fabric glue as a way of basting and with my curved piecing coming up it might be handy.

I also went to a local quiltboard.com meet-up this afternoon. It was really lovely to meet such a nice group of women! We had a fat quarter swap and there was a lot of show and tell. No one appreciates a quilters work like other quilters.
