"...in a time lacking in truth and uncertainty and filled with anquish and despair, no woman should be shamefaced in attemping to give back to the world, through her work, a portion of its lost heart." Louise Bogan, American Poet 1897-1970

I Won!!

     Hello! I can't believe I won something. I have entered contests on other Quilt Blogs many times and I was lucky enough to win a 5 pack of Aurfil thread from Jennifer's blog http://ellisonlane.blogspot.com/2011/09/i-aurifil-and-now-four-more-of-you-can.html.
Click the link to see my name in print as one of the winners and the prize.  I'm very excited as I've always wanted to try this thread and haven't been able to find it in my travels. I know it's out there in lots of  places and there is always the internet.
     It is amazing how long ago I posted. Time flies for so many reasons, eh?
     This weekend I'm off to meet up with two school chums. One I have been BFF since 6th grade and the other since 8th grade. We haven't seen each other for at least seven years. Shame on us! We have vowed not ever to do that again and will meet every 6 months or so.  I'm so excited I almost can't stand it!!!
     I have been working on a couple of table runners. I've been in a funk these past couple of weeks and it has been hard to get motivated, but I will share pictures when they are finished. I'm trying to get them done before I leave for the weekend.  Time is flying!! Will I make it?  Only time will tell. :o)
     I better get back to working on them. Time's a wasting.
     Thanks for stopping by! Blessings on each of you.  Deborah

  2. I saw your name on Jennifer's blog and did a little happy dance for you! Yeah Deborah! You'll have to let me know what you think about that thread. I haven' tried it yet (or won it yet!) so I'm hoping to nab some at the quilt show in Madison on Saturday. Have a great weekend!!
