I finally got over my angst about the pink challenge quilt and started the quilting. I got a bug in my bonnet about what I wanted to do and then I just got cold feet. It is a bit of a departure from what I normally do. Here a couple of sneak peeks, above and below. Not a lot of pink to be seen, you say!!

I packed up the 12 Twelve X Twelve quilts and sent them on their way for their photo shoot. I felt like I was letting my children go. I don’t know when I will see them in person again. They will travel to places that I may never go.

Yesterday, Scooter got a shave and a haircut. We are letting his body hair grow for the winter. Here is a photo I took of him today. He looks so handsome.

Tomorrow, Terry and I are going to meet Del Thomas for coffee. She is in town to visit her Aunt who is in hospice care. Her aunt lives right in my neighborhood.  I haven’t seen Del since the days when I used to go to Empty Spools at Asilomar.

My Twelve X Twelve quilts, that is. We are shipping them off to Lark  to be photographed. Each of us has made a bag for our quilts to travel in. When they get to Australia, for the shows, they will be sorted by theme in each bag.

I used the fabric I bought the other day. It has several different motifs in one piece and I think it makes for a very nice bag. I decided not to waste my hand=dyed fabric on a bag. Here is the other side.

I photographed each one for the final time and burned a CD of the images.

Now, I have to start work on my chapter which will be about the making of my chair piece.

I had a busy day — taking Scooter to the groomer and a meeting and lunch. I think I have tomorrow free to finally get the pink piece finished.
