Life is a Garden


"Life is a Garden of Scraps" is the quilt you see ... sent to my dad for his 85th birthday. He should open it this weekend. And life sure dishes out some really dillys, doesn't it. And when things get tough, where do quilters turn - to their favorite quilt store - aka Quilting by the Bay! Sometimes to start a new project or just find that special piece of fabric to finish one... and sometimes its just to find solace in the beautiful fabrics.

And for those of you who have not been by Quilting by the Bay lately and seen the chairs full of fabrics, you are missing a real treat. In the last 3 days we have probably received 15 boxes of fabric! The new Moda Beach Birdies with great colors and patterns featuring cute flamingos - even a Chrismas one!

And the very best news is that Judy Niemeyer is coming! Not sure who she is - check out her website www.quiltworx.com and see all the dynamic choices for her projects. She will be at Quilting by the Bay for 8 days! Because her class space is limited we have scheduled her so not only are there a variety of techniques available but also class spaces to accomodate our dedicated quilters. We are told her classes fill quickly so we are taking deposits now. Call or stop by QBTB for more info.

Enjoy your quilting time!

We look forward to seeing you soon at Quilting by the Bay,

Sue
