What a nice treat with cooler temperatures and, have you noticed--the days are getting shorter. That can only mean one thing, great quilting weather is really on its way. I have certainly noticed more people planning Christmas and winter projects. This is the perfect time to get a couple of tops finished and ready for the hoop if you are a hand quilter. Nothing is more satisfying than sitting beneath a quilt project and stitching away the winter days.

We are beginning to get things lined up for Fall classes. I will be giving you more updates in upcoming blogs as to when the newsletter and class lineup will be posted on the web site.

For all of you Baltimore enthusiasts--there have been two changes to the Main Conference lineup for Applique Academy. If you are planning to go and would like to include your application in the overnight letter from Nutmeg Lodge, you will need to get your application to me by Thursday. I will be mailing it on Friday. If you have any questions about the classes and would like to discuss it with me, come in, give me a call or email and I will tell you what I know.

My daughter and granddaughter have been visiting this weekend and I have not been to busy with stitching--hope you had a great weekend. See you soon--Barbara
