Hampton Roads VA Atlanta GA Lakeland FL

Sorry I've been away for so long.  It's been a crazy 2 or 3 weeks since we talked.  First the Mid-Atlanta Quilt Festival in Hampton Roads VA (great show), then to Atlanta GA and now we're in Lakeland FL.

We always love going to Atlanta 'cause that's where our other daughter and her family (our Atlanta Road Gang) reside, this includes grandchildren and great grandchildren.  Many pictures to follow.  On the last day of the show everyone shows up to help us tear down the booth, it's a mad house, but it gets done quickly.  But first let me tell you that when we arrived in ATL we had some homework to do so our greatgrands helped me prepare the 4" wool square bundles that we sell.







              

The next picture is the end result, the children helped choose the eight different colors and I put the squares together with yarn and a button.

     
Here are two of my prize students working on a 'make and take' project we offer so folks can learn the technique of using the punchneedle.



Having fun while working hard to finish this project.



A little punchneedle 'sheep pin'.

I'll write a little more tomorrow night, gotta' get some rest!
