Asking a quilter to mend is like asking Michelangelo to paint your garage. ~Author Unknown
I have been on a teaching whirlwind since I came home, traveling all over the state of Georgia doing workshops for the Georgia Quilt Council. I'm having a terrific time meeting new quilters and spending time with them! It is amazing how much I love to be in the quilt classroom. Well, maybe not so surprising because I spent over 20 years teaching Kindergarten and First Grade, I still miss those little ones. I think teaching will always be " where it's at" for me.
I will be doing 3 more workshops this week ending with a trip to Savannah. Maybe I'll drop by and have a bite to eat with Paula Deen while I'm there. Ya'll.
I will show you some photos of market today and tomorrow. Becky took a ton of photos, me....well I was having so much fun bouncing around like Tigger that my camera was the last thing on my mind. (Is there a punishment for bloggers who are not taking proper photos to report back??? If so you my turn my name in?sheesh)

| The fabulous Kelly from I HAVE A NOTION. On Halloween she was trotting around with an apron on with about 20 different scissors hanging from the apron. It was so funny. (ok, I know, no photo of that, sheesh) |

| Book signing at the United Notions booth. Look on the table, do you see the little bag of Cheetos that was given to me as I was signing the books......How funny. (Hey maybe I could be their spokes person, or maybe that is not such a great idea) |

| See my book on the rack of books in the Martingale Booth. I about peed in my pants when I first saw it. |

I am jealous. You got it meet Jackie and Kelly in person!
I am glad my book was already signed, that looks like a long line.
(my camera is glued to my hand) perhaps instead of gluing the camera to hand you should wear it around your neck like reading glasses......and if you get really techie have it set to take random pictures every 97 seconds.
I have your new book....but not signed..... I don't buy pattern books these days....have way too many ideas already....but your book seemed go to have ...
Your booth turned out beautifully! Great job! Don't wear yourself out doing all those classes!
