Modern Program in Hannibal

Journeyed to Hannibal, MO. this week to give a program to the Piecemaker Guild on Modern Quilting.  They are much more modern than they realize. 

Fairy Gardens

My brother in law Chris has created some wonderful fairy or miniature gardens in his yard.  Has gotten me motivated to do my own.

Think doll house size. 

Modern Dresden plates class

What have I been doing?  Obviously not blogging.  I have been learning a new website and blog site and plan to switch over later this year.  In the meantime I went to Lee's Summit, MO area last weekend to teach my Dresden plate class.  It was a blast.  Old friends, new friends and lots of sewing.  We took everyone's blocks and just put them up on the board.  It could be a quilt couldn't it?

Glades in Missouri

Tom and I went to two local glades today to see what was blooming.  We weren't disappointed.  Victoria glade and Valley View glade near Hillsboro were spectacular.
The Fremont Leather flower blooms only in these areas and we saw them today!!!  Isn't this beautiful?

One of my other favorites is the violet - so many color combinations of purples.

Another favorite:  pussytoes or Indian tobacco

Enjoy the panorama
