Today my Calendar Girls Quilt group got together at Jean Ferguson's house. Jean introduced us all to her new baby Mitzi.
We had a nice pot luck lunch. It was more about the food than the quilting today, (though I did work a little bit on my crazy quilt).
Mitzi was the star of the show today though.
This evening I did the Embellishment class that got cancelled on Tuesday. We had a good time. The gal on the left just got back from Indiana, & she said she met someone at the quilt show there, that asked her if she knew me. Apparently she met another blogger out there, who reads my blog.
This was done by Rene,( the gal on the right above), it is actually black Misty Fuse on black fabric, with bits of Angelina that had been fused then chopped up & fused on to the Misty Fuse. It was so much prettier in person than it shows in the photo. The Misty Fuse really is black, not gray. She will probably layer a sheer black organza or tulle over it when she uses it in a project.
This class is divided into 4 parts. Parts 1, 2, & 3 are about trying lots of different techniques & materials, then in class 4 we're going to put them together into things like ATC's, small wall hangings, books, or postquards.

There seem to be quite a few quilters in Alaska. I have now come across quite a few blogs which are from Alaska.

I was the person she met, Deb. I didn't get her name, and she didn't get mine. Should have--
