IQF-Long Beach-Saturday Night Sampler

August 3, 2011

 I had a blast at Int’l Quilt Festival-Long Beach ! Now, I’m tired, excited and recovering. The photo shows my table at the Saturday Night Sampler, with DH manning the cash register. I gave away a  quilted wholecloth table runner which you see on the right-more about that later. The Sampler was a resounding success! Apparently there is […]

Linen-offensive?

July 6, 2011

This is a departure from my normal post, but this subject keeps recurring and I am perplexed. I like to wear linen in the summer. I like linen because it is the most comfortable of all fibers when it’s hot and humid; it breathes. By comparison, cotton will suffocate you and stick when it’s hot and humid. […]
