Baby, Ballet and a Quilting Workshop

  

  Brooklyn Kate born May 5th, 2011, 3 weeks early, but doing very well! - a new baby grand doughter.

 

Ballet has finished for the season.

                        

Two friends and I went to an Art Quilting Workshop with Liz Faminoff for 3 days in Armstrong. This is Liz'z sample

                           This is my quilt ready to be stitched. Everyone choose their own backgrounds. The fabric for the flowers was in a kit and was mostly shaded fabric. The flowers were cut out using the lighter part for the top of the poppy and the darker parts for the bottom. There was 2.5 hours of homework the first night, cutiing out endless leaves.  It was an intense workshop, but we all had a great time!
