Check out the article about Springville Quilt show.  Marian's Bird Brain quilt is highlighted! :) http://www.heraldextra.com/entertainment/arts-and-theatre/visual/springville-museum-of-art-hosts-th-annual-quilt-show/article_faf723cd-406a-5f5b-a9db-ee1b1db25ea6.html
It's time for me to get my FMQ challenge done by midnight tonight!  So what am I doing?  Well, I'm trying to learn how to add badges to our blog.  I have added the Sketchbook Challenge badge which really has nothing to do with quilting per se, but it does have to do with design.  Really I added it because it gave me explicit directions on how to add it.  Still figuring out the others!
The blog continues to be developed.  On the show and tell page we now have posted the pictures from our May 8th meeting.  Minutes are posted on the minutes page.  My concern is that the pages just keep growing instead of being archived.  Oh well, it's a work in progress. The basket for Quilt Fest is now finished.  I forgot to take a picture of it to post. Will try to get one before it goes to Quilt Fest.

Highlights From HMQS! Judy and Peggy enjoyed their own little quilting bee in bed, finishing the binding on the Trip Around the World Charity Quilt.   Judy broke out her new needle threader and eventually figured out how to work it!   In the other bed, Lou was getting her beauty rest oblivious to our giggles!   Peggy had previously shown her newest hot product.   She won a bottle of Blue Line remover and was anxious to remove the blue lines from her practice piece.   She kept spraying and spraying until she finally realized the quilting was done with blue thread!   Too funny! Some of us attended a trunk show by Jill Finley.   Her family had done a Medallion Quilt Round Robin.   The quilts were amazing.    Sandy Davey photographed them and would love to i...
