After designing quilts on paper for two months, it was finally time to put scissors to fabric!
With the Mountain Aerie home available for the long Thanksgiving weekend, I packed up my machine and fabrics and set up shop on that 8-ft dining table overlooking a redwood forest.
I put out the call to a few friends and they showed up to pour wine, serve tea, use the sewing machine, and entertain with hilarious stories and girltalk. It was a Quilting Bee, circa 2008.
Surprise of the weekend: there is glee in sewing a smile on the face of a cartoon cat and watching an expression emerge...
