We are VERY amused!

This is Victoria Day weekend for all of Canada.  Most people enjoy the celebrations, fireworks and camping out!  Yes, we will be camping out in our RV, however, not very far and close enough to home to be running back when we forget something, which we will.

I have been working on a lovely quilt using Hunky Dory fabric.  Love it, love it, love it.  It is very girly, for me anyway, as I abode in a house full of boys and men.  There will a picture soon.

great giveaway thanks Paulette!

   Paulette of Sweet P Quilting and Creations is having a wonderful giveaway on her site.  They are back safe and sound from a four month winter break in the south. 
   The big news is that the Janome  6600P has arrived in my home - thanks to Lori Findlay-Mead of Findlay's Sewing in Kelowna, BC.  I have tried a number of different items and I am very happy with my choice.  The quilting will take some practice, that's for sure!   It did take me a minute to find the speed control.  If they had put a picture of a turtle and a rabbit like on my DH's lawn tractor, I would have found it faster - ha!
