\"\"<\/a>\u00a0When I was working on my new vest, I wrote that I don’t always put the fabric away, but just push it aside for now. My justification for this practice is that I might need a piece of that fabric and I don’t want to stop the creative process by organizing my fabric neatly on the shelves.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Well, that was a couple of weeks ago and the fabrics are still all nestled together on the floor of my sewing room. I’m going to go fold and put them all away just as soon as I finish writing this post.\u00a0<\/div>\n
But just in case you think my sewing area is always as neat as it was portrayed in my DVD, I thought I would show you my real world!<\/div>\n
I’ll begin packing tomorrow for a trip to Hershey, PA this week to teach several days of classes at the Quilt Odyssey. This is a return trip for me so I know what to expect….Chocolate and lots of it!<\/div>\n
It is also time to share with you the third clue in the “Collect the Clue” game. Just in case you are wondering, there will be a total of five clues. So, only two more clues to go before someone is going to win 60 Fat Quarters!!! Once I announce the fifth and final clue, just email me and let me know what the image is and you may be the winner.<\/div>\n
Clue # 3- The monthly news is no longer just black and white, but filled with lots of color and inspiring quilts.<\/span><\/div>\n
May all your points be perfect,<\/div>\n
