Binding at last night’s game.
Nice and clear -no rain- and the quilt kept off the wind.
If you’re local, check out Tom & Lucy’s Art Shoppe boutique which is going on this weekend. I’m going this afternoon. Maybe we could meet? They always have beautiful things. Last time I bought some awesome earrings. Jewelry is what I typically buy at craft fairs. It’s a part of the craft world that I have not allowed myself to enter. I figure I save money by buying someone else’s finished product rather than buying all the supplies and hoarding them in my basement, never getting to them. I already have one too many hoards.

April 24, 2010 at 2:55 amIt's such a breath of fresh air to see a soccer mum that distances herself from the "bulldog" variety that made the tour around the world on TV screens giving real soccer mums a bad reputation. Go girl, go!

April 24, 2010 at 2:57 amI hit the "publish" button a little too fast … your quilt looks gorgeous. I love the bright, sunny feeling it has and the green/white dots are yummy!

April 24, 2010 at 6:58 amYay, you! It will probably help you be very calm at the games, too, because you don't dare jump up and yell. 1: quilt might get dirty. 2: you could stab yourself.
