Now where did I leave off?
Last we talked, I was in the middle of the Forsyth County quilt show. The show was wonderful and there was a great turnout. On Sunday, Debbie from From the Strawberry Patch came by to visit. Isn't she just adorable?! (She would be the adorable one on the left).
The next weekend I was at the annual Quilters of South Carolina spring meeting. It was held in Sumter, South Carolina. We had Gyleen Fitzgerald as our guest speaker this year. What a great public speaker she was! If you ever get to hear her speak . . . . . Our class samples were displayed for the class we are to teach at the Fall Retreat. I am teaching a penny rug class but haven't taken a picture of it yet.
This past week, I took a class with internationally-known teacher Pat Sloan. The class focused on creating applique backgrounds from something OTHER than beige. I am the queen of beige! How did I do? I'll let you know after I get home and take a picture of the background I finished. My applique will be in wool, of course!!
And today, I am in Hilton Head Island for the Palmetto Quilt Guild quilt show. Some of the most beautiful quilts I have ever seen. Really!
Isn't this beautiful? And it won a second place ribbon!
The show runs today and tomorrow from 10 until 5 and is located at the St. Andrews-By-The-Sea UMC, 20 Pope Avenue on beautiful Hilton Head Island. Only blocks from the beach!

You have been a busy, busy girl! Hope you get a little bit of time to catch your breath soon.
Wow! You have been busy, I can only imagine what a blue ribbon quilt must look like in HH... that Baltimore Album w/ ships is AMAZING! Take time to breathe, I can't wait to see your masterpiece from the workshop.
Wow - you are one busy girl! Thanks for sharing, and I look forward to more pictures!
I know Debbie and she is a sweetie.
Pat came to our guild once. She is great.
Oh my! I love that ship quilt. Amazing!
Hi Cathi,
You are going to be absolutely worn out after this session of shows! And then teaching a PR class too!!
Beautiful quilt - and what a gorgeous area to be in...always wanted to go to Hilton Head. Maybe someday.
