G'day
I have a confession to make – I eat McD's burgers – but wait there's more.
When driving to Auckland last week I had a giggle about some young fellas
being arrested in the States for 'rapping' their order at McDonalds (only in
the US of A!!) and it did nudge me towards buying a burger for lunch. I am
pleased the burger police weren't on duty though cos I drove in and gaily
ordered a 'fat quarter' if you please. Got it right the second time J
I have now seen eight completed Projects – they are all wonderful and so
very different. Have you been tempted into signing up to the next one – The
Sampler Project?
As before the cost is $5 per month but will only run for eight months so
will cost a total of $35. Techniques covered in the monthly lesson include
foundation piecing, embroidery, appliqué, positive/negative appliqué and
piecing.
The Quilted Sampler measures approximately 30x14 inches. I have done it in
New Zealand colours (about a fat quarter of the three main ones) but that
would be your choice.
NOW IS THE TIME TO SIGN UP
The first 'class' was meant to go out this week but it would be too
confusing (for me) cos I know of several quilters who want to be involved
but haven't told me 'officially' so will wait until Christmas to give you
the first. It will be the hand stitching instalment so you can take it on
holiday with you.
Bookings for next year are coming in now so be in quick. The cost for a
weekend is $165 per person and includes all meals, accommodation and
teaching from Friday night to Sunday afternoon – I'd love to see you here at
my place.
The coming weekend is Big on the northern quilting scene:
My local group the Plains' Patchworkers are holding their exhibition on
Saturday and Sunday in the Ngatea Memorial Hall and then there is Calico
Christmas at the North Shore stadium, Thursday to Sunday.
