    I'm sort of glad that I'm late seeing this thread. I've been sick for over a week now, and am only just now feeling well enough to "pet my stash". The combination of flu with bronchitis has really laid me low.
    Congrats to everyone who managed to get something done this weekend, no matter how small!
    You know you're really sick when even quilting seems "too hard".

I found a bolt of batik in my stash for the backing. That will be tomorrow's project.
    Thanks... just watched the video!

    Had a fun day working with the ladies at Quilts for Kids. Finished binding 3 children's quilts while I was there, but I only remembered to take pictures of 2 of them.[ATTACH=CONFIG]506622[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]506623[/ATTACH]

    Going from XP to 8 has been a challenge, I'll see if I can figure out how to import pictures from the SD card. So far I'm still starching and cutting. I picked up three more shirts at the thrift store because it needed more colors.

    As a matter of fact, I have started a Christmas present. Just started cutting today. It is a tumbler pattern with the main fabric having butterflies in it.
