Family & Friends

Come along with me!

Thank you for all the comments on my last post.  I loved reading them!  We’ve traveled down this road called quilting together, and I feel like each of you is a special friend.  Come along on this new Moda journey with me!  I’ll be sharing things that happen along the way, giving you tips, tutorials, sneak peeks, a few giveaways and so much more!   The destination is Moda, and the fun will be in the journey!

Yesterday the studio was chaotic.  Quilts are coming and going, their names are changing so fast I can’t remember what quilt is what, patterns are getting written and I’m planning our booth space for Minneapolis quilt market!  And yet in the middle of the chaos, things are still normal for some in the studio!

Do any of you live in Minneapolis and happen to have a handyman husband or know a good carpenter?  I need two walls built for my booth at International Quilt Market coming up in May.  Do you know someone who can help?  Please, please email me!  If you live in the Minneapolis area, love sophisticated chic, know where to look for vintage things, and would be willing to help, please email me.

For those of you who might be crocheting away, I’m still picking up that needle too, whenever I can.  It’s not perfect and I’m a bit embarrassed to show you, but remember it’s been years since I’ve crocheted.  Had a bit of trouble changing colors, and I can see one row is wrong…not sure what I did. I’m determined this will become a throw so I’m sticking with it.  I’ll keep you posted on my progress.  Anyone know what I did wrong to get that “ridge” across the darker pink?  I can expect to get better as I go along don’t you think?

I’m going back to work while it’s still March.  April is just a few days away!

Have a  great day.  I’ll be back soon!

    For the first time in my entire life I wish I lived in muggy Minneapolis so I could help Bunny Hill get her booth ready! Shoot!!

    Anne, try Craig’s List. It’s organized by region/city/category. You should be able to get a reliable handy man.

    For the gathering of pretty odds and ends, you might need to send Brigitte out in a rental car. Before you leave, the two of you can do a search on google to find 2nd hand stores, Target, World Market, Joann’s. Call a few weeks before hand to verify the businesses are still open and the address and the hours.

    Mapquest the locations to figure out which locations are closest to each other and of brief driving distance. If you can borrow someone’s GPS you can put all the addresses in them before Brigette heads out on her Walkabout for Bunny Hill’s booth!!

    May the force be with Bunny Hill! ;0

    p.s. don’t forget the light saber just in case!

    Hi Anne ~ I’d say just add a few more blocks with “mistakes” in them and tell everyone you did it that way on purpose to “add more visual interest”. Ha ha!
