Auspicious first post for the redesigned site — election day!

November – wow—- really???!!!

All the fall colors are quite inspirational I dare say )  A friend of mine hung a quilt she bought with beautiful autumn leaves as the theme.

A new student came today and got to cut out a red plaid flannel pair of lounge pants – getting ready for the holidays!  I’m almost as excited as she is to see them come together!

Another is figuring out her yardage to recover some cushions for a friend.  Can’t wait to see what fabric she chooses )

Another student has just finished a beautiful pirate maiden costume -a la Snow White and the Huntsmen (blue underdress/brown overdress in the photo Gallery) she got done in time for Halloween (as a dress rehearsal for pirate night on a Disney cruise).   She did some wonderful work and I think she learned a LOT through that process.  Always fun discovering things as I get to help folks through patterns that are new to me.  She is such a good student.

The most unusual work of the season= helping a student alter a shirt for her wonderful big German Shepherd service dog for his Halloween costume!  That was a first for both of us!

And – can’t wait to see the rag quilt begun a few weeks ago — time for a student get together celebration/photo shoot!!!

Cheers!
