Getting Ready

While in one of the convenience stores in Big Timber the other day I noticed a brochure for a new quilt show being held in the neighboring community of Columbus on Memorial Day weekend.  When I contacted the person in charge I received a warm welcome and decided we would load up bag and baggage and participate in this show.  As I am a representative for APQS, the manufacturer of my longarm quilting machine, we are taking the longarm for demonstration.  Wouldn’t it be nice if I could sell one??  Or two??  We are also taking along some quilting kits—attractively packaged kits containing a pattern and fabric to make a quilt, some bolts of fabric and various other notions.  We will just see what happens in this first attempt to get our feet wet!

My wonderful friend Jeane came up today and helped me put together the quilting kits—without her I would still be downstairs cutting fabric.  Thank you Jeane—you are the best!

For lunch I made another quiche YUM!  And I made a from scratch low fat cheesecake that was delicious! 

When we took a walk last night this storm was approaching But, the storm went around us.  Big Timber was not so lucky—the town received about 2 inches of rain mixed with hail—power was lost and the streets flooded.  Jeane and Steve were without power for a while.

Isn’t this the sweetest little dog??
