Saturdays are the best!

Today was the grand opening for the bricks and mortar Sew Beautiful Marketplace.



As you probably know, my daughter Shannon is the art director for Sew Beautiful magazine. She is also the editor for Stitch Craft Create which will be on the shelves in stores in just a few weeks. I made this quilt (featuring Anna Griffin fabric) , and it will be in the new magazine! The pattern and a kit will be available.



Shannon and Georgia went with me to see the store this morning. The Sew Beautiful Marketplace is filled with fabric, patterns, notions, and inspiration!



Georgia had the most wonderful time when we headed on to Hobby Lobby. She giggled and giggled at the feathers and flowers we held for her to see.



Of course, then we went home and she changed into her glow-in-the-dark skeleton suit for the game. Georgia had her six month check-up: 27 inches and nearly 20 pounds.



Last weekend, we went up to the Monte Sano Art Show. It is such a great venue!



We enjoyed many of the vendors and their work, but our favorite was Guadalupe Robinson.



We've bought quite a few pieces of her wonderful pottery, and this is the newest fish pot.

Quilting? I have been working on finishing my red cross quilt, and the binding will go on tomorrow. Stay tuned.

  1. Where is the brick and mortar store? I can't wait to see Shannon's new magazine. It looks fantastic! How can that baby be Georgia? She is growing WAY too fast. What is the word on your school? So many questions!

    Wasn't the game today great! Roll Tide!
