..said in my best Cary Grant impersonation…Seattle Judy REALLY out did herself!! Look at what she worked on last Wednesday during our day at the Clubhouse! Pretty impressive, hey? (notice the ‘hey’…yup…we are heading back to Canada…:)
These are all note book covers…Wool, hand appliqued to a dark cotton background…GORGEOUS!! The two bottom right ones are totally finished…and they are going to be Christmas gifts for her girl friends back home!!
Wouldn’t you be THRILLED to find one of these under YOUR tree?
Here’s a close-up of Judy’s work…A+ for sure!
Judy bought the patterns at the ‘Calico Horse’ in Redlands on one of our first runs to that shop!
SEW how am I going to spend my LAST day…well…Judy, Judy, Judy (couldn’t help myself) and I are going visiting…first to JoAnn’s (she is SEW SWEET…she is giving me a send off SALE!!) and of course I HAVE to say good-bye to my dear friend, Joe!! (You may know him as Trader Joe…) I thought I would pick up some of his delicious meals for the road home…he is such a good cook!
Then it’s back to the trailer to finish packing up. We are pulling out tomorrow morning…bright and early!! Let’s hope the snow has stopped falling on those mountain passes! It’s been a crazy Spring up north!
NOW can you tell me, where did THOSE FIVE months go?? Sheesh! Poof…gone!
Have a FUN Friday and Happy Quilting!~P
Have a safe trip. I'll be thinking about you stitching your heart out traveling along I-5!!
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip home. I do love those notebook covers.
ReplyDeleteLovely notebook covers!!! Judy, Judy, Judy has some very lucky friends. :-)
ReplyDeleteJoann and Joe are going to miss you. I know they will be anxiously awaiting your return.
Safe journey home!
Love the notebook covers!!!
ReplyDeleteBe safe!
Sorry to see you leave the Palm Springs area. I'll miss those wonderful quilt shop tours and the quilts-in-progress from the Club House Quilters. But I'm sure you are probably getting anxious to get home now and see what is going on around Cobblehill. Enjoy your trip to JoAnn's, hope you get some good bargains to bring home.
ReplyDelete"Seattle Judy" sounds like she ought to be shooting pool. You know. Like Minnesota Fats. I would like to be on her gift list. Pass that little bit of info on to her. I'll be waiting for the package to arrive.
ReplyDeleteI love those notebook covers, how precious! Wow can't believe it's been five months...where does the time go...have a safe trip home, Paulette!
ReplyDeleteyou can come back now...I think the snow has stopped at least here at home!..hard to believe that the five months are done already!!
ReplyDeleteblue sky and sunshine all weekend is predicted!!..can hardly wait!!
Sorry you have to leave all of those wonderful fabric stores and quilt shops so soon! You have a good trip over the mountains, now, hear? Don't forget to give us a holler when you come through Eugene, if you're hungry, and we'll meet for a bite. Oh, and don't let Rick go through Portland too fast...remember the Fabric Depot is open for business!
ReplyDeleteYou've managed to jam-pack a million memories from this trip to dream about 'til next time.
ReplyDeleteBut, then, you'll be busy collecting new Spring-Summer-Autumn experiences during the coming months.
Love ya
hugs

I pictured Goober from the Andy Griffith Show when you said that. He was always doing his Cary Grant impersonation!
ReplyDeleteI was just at Joe's yesterday in Redding Ca and he can't wait for your visit. I love that store! Have a good trip home and drive carefully so you don't miss any new quilt shops. I've enjoyed YOUR holiday alot.
