Alphabet Tags and Scattered Hearts



I have finally finished Alphabet Tags....Here it is on my garage floor....(notice it has bits of every paint we have ever used in our house:) I even have the first 2 patterns done. I have been burning the midnight oil trying to finish, because I am off to Megan's on Saturday and the Loft Open House is on the 14th....I get back late on the 13th.

Gene and I were just in Portland for the weekend....but Megan has her second treatment of this new regimen on Friday and I am going up to hang out with her and help out. It has been a difficult last few weeks. She is not feeling great and she has a lot of water retention so she is very uncomfortable....Hopefully the next go around won't be as bad.

I got an email from Primitive Quilts today with a preview of my project in their next issue. It is called "Scattered Hearts" and I tell you why in the article that goes along with it..... I am excited that my friend, Cheri Payne has her quilt on the cover too...(see my sidebar). If you sign up for a subscription they are giving away freebies...You will want to check it out (and tell them I sent you...:)))


I hope that all of you have had a good start to your year! Take care and I will try to write again soon.....My best to you all................Jo Ann

  4. I love your pillow, can't wait to get my issue. I like the idea for all round pillows, need something on my couch and that might just be the perfect idea for them.
