Year of the pig? Nope....


as far as my mom and I are concerned, 2007 is the year of the quilt. You may recall that I was going to sign up for a quilting class. Well, the quilt store had a class set for October, but I went up north in October for a fabulous girl's weekend. Easy decision for me. So my mom and I have really been anxious to start and I have everything I need to get going, but the first cut is the hardest. I am going to start with a quilt for Harrison or Charlie. Eventually I want to make them each one, then maybe tackle one for Robert and I. I know, I dream big. Wish me luck! I'll post pictures soon, I want to show you the fabric I got.
The photo here is of my new cute little tablecloth I got at Marshalls. :)

You will love quilting! It's like making someone a big hug that they can wrap around themselves - there's nothing like it!!

I want to start a quilt too. I was going to just start and see how it goes, maybe a class would be a better idea!!

Oh, I love what Shannon said. Now I want to learn to quilt too. Oops, maybe I should learn to sew first. That is an amazing photo of your tablecloth. Do you have an orange tree in your backyard?

I hope you are having a very happy birthday!
