Quilter’s Block…(as in Writer’s Block..)

What to write about today?  Hmmmm…??  If you are a blogger, do you ever have days like today?…where you sit in front of the computer with nothing to say…?  Well that’s me today! 

So what do I do?  I turn to my camera of course!  There are ALWAYS pictures there of good stuff that I haven’t download yet…(847 pictures to be exact!!)

EUREKA!  There’s gold in that-there camera!

What I haven’t shown you are pictures of MY favourite quilts from the Parksville Quilt Show!  Oh I showed you SOME of the pictures…of the raffle quilts… but not any of the actual quilts in the show!  So here we go!  Sit back and enjoy (whew…now that was easy!)

Love this little guy!!
