Margaret came by this morning for about 2.5hrs.
showed her some ideas for both applique and reverse applique.
she is sure of the design she wants to do.
i gave her a 15 inch square of muslin and some scraps to try out some
different applique methods.
showed her how i use interfacing but couldnt find my interfacing to give her
some.
showed her how i EPP scraps into wee dresden blades and then make those into
flowers, butterfly etc.
EPP works on any design, i've made birds that way and dual coloured leaves.
explained how to do freezer paper on front and back for applique.
sent her home with the muslin and scraps to have a play around and get in
some stitching practice.
told her if she has any questions email me or come by after work for a few
minutes when needed.
i'm always home and only live a few minutes away so no biggy dropping by
after work.
even before i could ask...she said she was working the next two weekends so
we couldnt get together again for three weeks. :(
so means we cant go to the quilt show in two weeks. :(
wondering if there is anyone else around my burb who'd like to go.
who do i know? argh.
i'll think about it.
so thats my morning.
oh and show'd her my GREEN HUG.
she couldnt believe all those blocks were made by you folks all over the
world just for me.
splained how it was all put together by different folks, each person doing a
different part.
she was amazed to say the least.
then i told her how the first few weeks i had real issues whenever i looked
at it cuz of why i had it and would give it up in a heartbeat if only....
theres my morning. no one home now but me. dh at work, ds is out with
friends. just me and the cat.
she isnt a cuddly cat at all so she's not much use when i need her. oh well.
at least i had someone to talk to about something fun.
she is one busy lady but is going to get this design of hers made somehow.
we'll see.
i'm trying real hard to move forward but in slow motion it is taking a long
long time.
hugz to all of rctq for putting up with me thru all this.
you're my therapy and it is much needed.

Hi Jeanne, Hope you find someone to go to the show with, and we don't mind
listening when you need to talk. Did you ever get the email I sent you
about my trip to NZ?
