It's been a long time since......

So sorry for being such a lazy person, hopefully this will be a new start for my blog.
Summer is over, thank goodness.  
Summer was hot, horrible and I am glad that it is over.
Our two cars were stolen in July, one was found but mine is gone forever.  
Summer with the grand children and family without a car is the pits. 
 I did lots of shopping with my Rosie, alias my bicycle.  
 I have a nice basket on the handles for shopping in the market,
 makes it rather easy here in the south of France.  
A little quilting was done.  I always have fun with Sweetie and Gertrude. 

my Shabby Chic round table cloth 

Here is another of my quilts that I had fun doing.  It is called Cubit, I picked out the fabric when I went to Germany to take long arm classes at Quilt&Co with Claudia and Jodi Robinson, I will post pictures of our class later. 











 Enjoy
That's all for today

    Today I can say "thirty years in waiting"  is finished I had made a queen size quilt with these fabrics and I missed it so that I had started another but put it away for a rainy day.    So happy that I found the box many years later and was able to get it finished at last!! A nine patch or simple irish chain, so off I went with my box, and this is what it turned into.... I am so pleased, and it is big enought to use on the dining room table. I have a few squares left, maybe enought to make a place setting or something. The quilting design is from My Creative Stitches  Monday Patch Vacation time is over and we are back to our art!!
