Sunday’s Stash Report: Two Michael Miller Fairies Panels bought = 1.35 yards in. One baby I Spy quilt kit given away = approximately 2 yards out.
Monday’s Design Wall report: Same quilt as last week (JudyL’s Frames quilt), patiently waiting for attention. I am putting my Aunt Bert’s quilt on the longarm today, so finally some action in the sewing room! Woo-hoo!!! And those Fairies panels I bought? They are going into a small decorative throw for my mom. They are just adorable, and would make a super-easy, super-fun baby quilt with some bordering, as long as the baby’s a girl!
Weather Report: I know, you didn’t ask, but I just want to tell you all how fabulous it is in Minnesota today, November 9th. 58 degrees and sunny. It’s more like May.
Places-to-Visit-on-the-Web Alert: Remember the Minnesota Blog Hop earlier this year? There’s a new one that started today with 12 quilt artists from across the country, each taking a turn sharing a project with us, the lucky readers. Today Gudrun of GE Designs is featured. Be sure to check out her cute quilt-as-you-go tutorial for the holidays, and leave her a comment (be sure to read and fulfill the requirements in your comment) to be entered in a drawing. I’ll be listing each day’s featured artist on my blog, so feel free to stop by for the link. Good luck!
Family News: DS#3′s big old van had a close encounter of the deer kind this weekend in Wisconsin, and he’s now a full-time pedestrian. No injuries to the people involved. Don’t ask about the venison deer…

Car accidents seem to be the thibg this past weekend. Someone rear-ended my BIL and niece this wekend. No injuries, just some damage to their van.
I’ve spent the last couple of weeks dodging those dang critters or driving past the carcasses on the highway. I’ve seen them in MN, SD, and in NE I had to dodge the mulies along with the whitetails. Whew!! I always remember, for every one you see, at least 3 friends are lurking and waiting!
