Hi everyone! How was Halloween? It was pretty quiet for us. We did not get any trick-or-treaters again this year. We stayed home for a while and finally went out to dinner. Mexican food is traditional right? Hmmm… maybe not, but it sure was good!
Did I tell you one of my other Quilt Market stories? Well…. imagine, it is 5 in the morning and you have to get ready, finish packing, check out and get to the airport. You get on the elevator, go to the lobby and bam! The elevator doors won’t open.
The stuff of nightmares right?
Well, it happened to me and my daughter. We were stuck on the elevator for 1/2 hour, missed our shuttle pickup to the airport… The good news is, we were pretty calm the whole time (well, until we were safely at the airport, then we were a little freaked out!).
Guess what we did in the elevator while we waited for help to arrive? We played with my daughter’s knitting project! Thank goodness for our crafts. Talk about a stress reliever!
So,what’s up this week?
I was hoping to have another scrappy post for you, but to be honest, I have not had time. I have some quilts due this month and so I had to pedal to the medal sew on those. I can’t show them to you yet since they are for magazines.
Woo Hoo! Did I tell you all I would be more of a regular contributor in a few magazines this year? It is all very exciting for me; I will have quilts in Quiltmaker, McCall’s Quilting and McCall’s Quick Quilts. The first one will be in Quiltmaker’s Jan/Feb 2015 issue due to be on sale Dec 2nd. I will keep you posted.
In the meantime, I have a block in the upcoming 10th edition of Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks due out this month! Another woo hoo!
And I am going to be part of the blog tour. My day on the tour is November 21st so be sure to check back then.
And yes, there will be a giveaway! Of course!
I love giving stuff away.
Have a great week- I will try to post again late this week.
happy quilting,
Kate
