I love your quilting story too. I'm glad your friend asked you for sewing lessons, you're a very talented quilter and have an eye for colour. I like your log cabin variation too. That's how new patterns are developed.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15778110892578808447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-85704702270096870742009-10-13T19:53:32.250-05:002009-10-13T19:53:32.250-05:00I thought you would enjoy this link....if you clic...I thought you would enjoy this link....if you click the two older post you can see all about the Houston Quilt Festival and show...I think this week was for retail only, but I know they are having a huge show this weekend...I can't go :( but these pics were amazing...enjoy, Lane!<br /><br />http://wwwbluemoonriver.blogspot.com/2009/10/quilt-market-part-iii.htmlColoradoladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16312809532968928183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-53451420052198633082009-10-13T19:31:52.299-05:002009-10-13T19:31:52.299-05:00I loved hearing how you got started in quilting. ...I loved hearing how you got started in quilting.

After seeing "Roseville" from the quilt show you attended I was wondering if you are more inspired to start your Roseville? <br /><br />I have a Pfaff 7530 and love, love, love it! There is just something about the Pfaffs from 10 years ago. <br /><br />I'm rambling now - better go. Have a great day!

In my opinion that is totally awesome. <br /><br />I'm sorry you lost your partner in 1998. I lost my mother-in-law to cancer in 1993, next to my husband she was my best friend in the world. I continue to miss her. I guess as long as we have memories, they live on in our hearts. <br /><br />Like you, my craft emporium is my sanctuary, it is where I am most content creating all kinds of things for those I love. As a sewing machine collector, it delights me to read about other peoples machines. I have a Pfaff 7510 (Phyllis) she is a baby sister to your 7570. I also have a Singer 127 (Sophie) treadle. This is an excellent machine for sewing leather and denim. I find treadle sewing relaxing, some say it is good for varicose veins and circulation in your legs. My 1910 Bernard Stoewer treadle has a reverse..totally cool.<br /><br />Thanks again for telling me about your sewing projects and machines. You are not only a good quilter you're a great writer.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18053469261622557578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-54237653061488991672009-10-13T11:36:15.506-05:002009-10-13T11:36:15.506-05:00How fun you shared how you got started quilting......How fun you shared how you got started quilting...You are just ooozzinnggg with talent Lane....I had to chuckle on the binding lesson thing....I guess I need a real lesson on that...according to the judges from the show...and I thought I had done such a wonderful job. <br /><br />I talked with a quilter on the phone yesterday about quilting the quilt I just finished the top....custom quilting is a wait list until September 2010...and if you wanted a quilt for the show in 2010 here...no way...it would be 2011....IMAGINE THAT? For just regular quilting....waiting list until June of 2010. I got on her waiting list...JUST INCASE I might have something I want her to do by that time.....I could NOT belive that.<br />Hope you have a great day today...I am off to the quilt shop for some fabric for the binding of this last quilt, to Wally-world to buy an iron...mine went out in the middle of ironing blocks....sigh....and then I have to think about going to work this evening....Sighs again!!<br />Have a great day!Coloradoladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16312809532968928183noreply@blogger.com
