HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

I must be the last in the Blogger's World to wish you all a 

Happy New Year!

2012 feels really good!....

In the Blogger's Quilting World a lot is happening.

The artistry of Quilting is mushrooming

taking us all into different zones....

How Wonderful and Exciting!

There is no better place to be for Christmas 

than being with our children and respective companions. 

Last but not least, our grandson Jacob.

We ate, drank, laughed and played.

God is good....

I designed this quilt for Jacob using 

Bunny Hill Design by Ann Sutton - 'Lily and Will'.

when I had finished 'quilting' the quilt, 

I was so excited to give my daughter, 

I neglected to take a photo....a no! no! in my book!

It is so important to sign and document your Quilts,

As we say in Jamaica "baby turn grannie's head fool".....no denial....

  Living in Jamaica is not without its challenges...

I think I must be the only one...thus far...who has the latest Bernina.

(hopefully in time....my students who are doing amazingly....

will want Bernina quilting machines)

We have some original Bernina Sewing Machines... going very strong!!

Hence......

I take my machine to a lovely Quilt Store in Florida to be serviced.

Unfortunately, it needed a part..

due to the Christmas rush it has been 4 weeks!!!

Ever wondered why Quilters have several machines..... 

I do have one more..but...hint..hint..

The 'attachment' trap...Oh yes...that's me...

I get attached to my machine, 

to my fabrics, to my notions, to my quilts......

I await patiently for my call ...to jump on the flight.....

In the meantime...

My stash is being reorganized....

Ready for the moment........

HAPPY NEW YEAR
