I'm envious of your fun weekend, WMUTeach! Have a ball....
I'm making a wedding veil today, and then I will start packing up my stuff for a craft fair tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Have a great weekend, everyone.

I like my version of Arkansas Crossroads, but I wish I had done it differently. I used a small jelly roll that I had bought on clearance years ago, and unfortunately I didn't have enough to fill the sides with the partial 16 patches. It looks different than what I thought, but
This picture doesn't show the color very well, but it is a concrete-type gray with a mixture of pink, gray, white, and black metallics. I have affectionately called it "Pink Granite". I am hoping that a border will perk it up a little bit, but I am having a tough time deciding on a fabric to round it out.
Anyway, thank you Sewvbizgirl for your wonderfully fun QAL! It got me to use up a jelly roll that had been stashed away for a few years and I had a great time
Can't wait for the next one!

I mailed out candies to Sewbizgirl, Mariposa and sunrise450 today. I didn't think to put my board name on the outside of the envelope! I'm Penny T. from Ohio The postman said that postage was going DOWN, back to 47¢
Barb, your new grandbaby is precious! What a blessing.

WholeheartMom, your quilt from the jelly roll is beautiful. I love your colors! Great job!
Penny, I have never heard of postage going DOWN... ever. If that's true it will be wonderful. They need to back off the package rates, too. They took quite a jump in January. I hope you put the $.71 stamp on your birthday cards tho, or they are going to arrive postage due.
Speaking of cards, I got some today from SheriR and zozee. Thank you so much, ladies. Eight more to go and I'll have the whole lot!
Oops, make that 7 more.
