I worked a little on Millie last night while consuming my Valentine candy. AC did good this year: Spa Sydell certificate and 2 pralines and 4 Godiva white chocolates. I had told him I like white chocolate, so he stayed with white; inside and out. They were kinda boring, plus no benefits like dark chocolate, so I am switching back. Today I worked on the Tula Pink "Nest." I am to the point that I need the dark brown fabric. I am going to Intown Quilts next weekend, so I'll see what they have. I cut out the fabric I decided on for the mystery quilt we are doing in the Atlanta Unity group. I'm getting excited about it, but we don't meet again for a couple of weeks.
Oh, and I would like to add that the spring came off my Martelli rotary cutter. AGAIN...I thought I would mention it, since they will probably be at the Sewing and Quilt Expo next month. The cutter, red, with an ergonomic handle, is wonderful when it stays together, but a terrible danger when the spring comes off (there is no way to close the blade).
I love this little charm I picked up in the Unity church bookstore. The Unity wings mean alot to me having grown up attending services at Unity Village, Missouri, sometimes with my parents, but also with my grandparents. The tiny hanging charm says "believe."
The quilter's group met at Altanta Unity church today. Our fearless leader, Theoan, has been busy at her sewing machine. Under this batik beauty are TWO more quilt tops completed from the mystery task we each took on. Mine is still in pieces. My ONE that is.
I did, however, finish sewing the binding on my Flower Shop wall hanging. I am in the picture so mom can see my new short haircut. My fantasy of growing long hair again is abandoned.
