Two little patches of sunshine

Paintbox blocks



I got my last two yellow Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks completed.  Yesterday was a good day in my Quilt Studio (uppity term for my sewing room) as I got a customer’s quilt finished, my yellow blocks completed and a big chunk on another project done.

Today I will be spending the afternoon and evening at the Heritage Park Festival of Quilts in our lovely city of Calgary.  I’m looking forward to being inspired by all the beautiful quilts and tempted by fabrics in the Merchants Mall, then an evening dinner and talk by Joanne Middleton a local quilter.

Sunshine tidbit - On average, it takes energy between 10,000 and 170,000 years to leave the sun's interior and then be emitted from the surface as light – who knew?

A good laugh is sunshine in the house.

  1. LOve the log cabin blocks you have done. Have a good time at Heritage Park. I have gone other years but not this year - to many things to do at home this year.

  5. Such sunny yellow blocks. Good thing it didn't take 170,000 years for us to see the light.
