In just a few hours, I will have the joy of holding my second grandchild. There is no blessing in the world as rich as this, and I intend to treasure every touch, scent and emotion that goes with it. I am proud of my son Matt and his wife Kristina, they are a lovely couple and fantastic parents. Added joy, I get to spend a little time with big sister Alaina this weekend -all good. Last weekend, I had a warm-up baby experience when my nephew Brian and his wife Leslie visited for a bit. Their children Lula and Edward are adoreable, and their visit was such a pleasure. Here is Edward modeling a monkey cuddle blanket for us. He looks just like his daddy. He loves to snuggle, and I got to rock him to sleep. mmmmm, it was lovely.
Attention local quilters we just scheduled a TEST SEW DATE WITH TERRY ATKINSON. Terry has designed a new pattern that I just love. It is fat quarter friendly, and her sample is done in soft earth tone batiks. The class is Tuesday, September 28 from 6-8 pm, the cost is $20. If you are interested in taking a class from Terry and testing this new pattern, call Quilted Treasures 763-428-1952 to sign up. We have very limited space available, so you won't want to delay.
THE DOCTOR IS IN....Dr. Seuss has arrived at QT. The color is so vivid and we have the full line to offer. Visit our Etsy store to purchase, and let your imagination run wild.
And the Cuddle Contest winner is... Lisa, who wrote:"The tie dye sorbet is great but I love the monkey - in all the colors. It reminds me of a stuffed monkey I had when I was little. I tried cutting his hair once and left him with big patches with no fur at all. I still loved him though. I would use it on quilts I am making for my 3 & 4 yr old niece and nephew." Lisa, email me with your information so I can send you 1 1/2 yards of cuddle. I know your niece and nephew will love a cuddle blankie.
Thanks to everyone for your comments. Please visit our webstore often to get your fix of cuddle. Truly, once you have made a quilt with cuddle, there is no going back!
