I did one finally. I bought a yard of Timtex while on a shop hop with my SIL about 5 months ago, and today it yelled at me to make it.

Hello Again!! by NanaV
Okay - I'm officially back - at least for the most part. I finished the Anniversary quilt that was weighing heavily. It is through the washer and looking every inch the way I'd hoped. I now can't wait for the presentation which will not be for two weeks. So that means I can bask in having it...

Friday and Saturday was my ASG chapter's annual sewing getaway. We headed off to the middle of nowhere to a spacious B & B and sewed away. And you are correct, I didn't tell you I was leaving. I know better than to announce to this group that my stash was going to be unguarded for two days! I...
