Since I have been doing so much running around promoting my two patterns Sole Cool Hot Iron Bag and Snap, Grab and Go I felt I deserved a little break. My 4 friends and I went to The Victorian Guest House, which is at 302 E. Market St. Nappanee, IN., for a quilt retreat. It has six period decorated guest rooms with each having its own private bath. Chris Haman, the owner, creates a wonderful space for us to laugh, talk and sew till the wee hours. You really should consider this if you want a fun place to go and have a quilt retreat or just get away from everything for a couple days.

If you are near Muncie, IN on Dec. 5th you should drive over to Quilters’ Toy Box. They are located at 804 W. McGalliard Road. They are having a huge sale! You heard about the early bird getting the worm? Well how about 30% off your entire purchase if you get there between 7 A.M. and 8 A.M.!! Between 8 and 9 it is 25%, 9 and 10 it is 20% and 10 to 4 it is 15%. Tonya Dumpert is the owner and she would love to see you at her “Super Saturday Sale.”

While I was gone on my retreat I received a couple packages that contained new products for me to test out for all of you. They look pretty cool! One is really BaNaNas! You have to wait and come back to see what it is. Give me a couple days and I will let you know. Until then, keep quilting!
