Week 34
Spent the weekend camping out at Lake Lurleen over in Alabama. Will and Erin went with us and Moe of course. We took the popup and the canoe and a book each. We paddled around in the canoe with Moe (he actually seemed to enjoy himself eventually) and read our books in the shade for the rest of the day.
Sunday was crazy for Steve... First day of classes in the new building. He spent 11 hours up at McCool trying to make sure that everything was going to run smoothly on Monday. (luckily it did)
I spent Monday and Tuesday in a class taught by Ann Fahl on machine quilting. She was a very good teacher and I thoroughly enjoyed the class. I took my harmonic conversion top in as the sample to work on the second day (the first day was just solid fabric). One of her best lessons was how to properly block and baste a quilt. I think this might be one of the missing parts of my puzzle of getting quilts finished.
Tuesday I went to the quilt guild meeting in Starkville, but because she has lost most of her classroom area, it was decided to move the meetings time and location. So that will happen next month. They are looking for officers for the guild, and I really don't want to be obligated to do it, but feel like I should help out in some way. *grumble*
Finally finished the Protectors War. I liked it, and really want to get the last one now.
Reading: an erotic romance fire in starlight or something... it's not very good, but it's short. :)
