Hodge podge of a week with some highlights

September 19, 2024

  I completed nothing this week except creating and editing teaching videos to support my 3 hour Straight Line Ruler Work class. Ruler work on a domestic is pretty difficult to show live.

  It has been a week of variety:  a guild visit, hand applique/trapunto and beginning to prep student kits for Houston. My visit to the Amador Valley Quilters was so much fun!
