Long time no see
It's been a while since I've stopped by RCTQ, was working so much last
year that I didn't even have time to lurk. Working so much that I basically ran screaming into the night, DH asked "why?" so we agreed that I should take the summer off and figure out what I really want to be when I grow up later. It's a little bit of belt tightening, but no child care requirements since I am now home home home (and happy as a clam about it!) Started the summer with a little quilt shop hop, conveniently have a week of camp for the girls the same time as Sisters so I can go without worrying about what the kids are up to. It will be the summer of quilting, and getting back to the gym to see if I can't shed a few of the "desk spread" pounds I put on this year. Glad to see you all again, I really missed you!

Welcome back, Loren! It's good to see you again. I can appreciate the
"screaming into the night" thing -- BTDT! And I'm starting to ask myself "why," too. I'm thrilled for you that you are taking the summer off! It sounds like you need it. Hope you'll be able to spend a little more time on the group now that you have some time for yourself. Anything in particular you plan to work on (quilting-wise, that is) this summer? -- Louise in Iowa nieland4 at mchsi dot com http://community.webshots.com/user/louiseiniowa "Loren in Seattle" wrote in message om...

Hey, Loren; private e-mail me with your address, please. Marijke has a
letter for Brenna ready to mail. So what's your summer quilt going to be? I am still handquilting a 9/11 memory quilt but started the first corner block this evening so the end is in sight! My next quilt will be a Boston Commons that will be a wedding gift for my younger daughter's best friend (the couple lives in Boston). It is hard to get much sewing done with Marikje and her little sister here daily but... Liz Liz |

Good to see you back Loren. How is the Reluctant Round Robin? Have you
gotten it quilted yet?? (Have some people down here that would like to see how you finished it off........ G) Pati, in Phx.

Welcome, welcome, welcome back!!!! I couldn't prescribe a more nutritional
summer plan for you if I tried! In fact, think I'll join you in this as well!

The reluctant round robin is on the list for the summer. Started with
cleaning my sewing area and found the journal that went with it, realized how much fun that RR was. Did any of the rest of you from the Relucant Round Robin finish? Should we think about posting pics? Lorne Pati Cook wrote in message ... Good to see you back Loren. How is the Reluctant Round Robin? Have you gotten it quilted yet??

LOL
Mine is sitting waiting for me to finish it. I think I will add some applique to the outer part to "spark" it a bit. And then I can quilt it. Right now I am trying to get some samples done for classes. And trying to come up with classes to teach that are interesting but still fairly easy for beginners to do. Pati, in Phx.
