Antique Shop Open!

Yeah! My last two weeks have been possessed by the hugh job of setting up an antique booth in an antique mall
one and one-half hours away. Yesterday we installed it all and I must say it looks splendid! Much more work to do but in 2 weeks when I go back, I'll make those changes and it will be fine.

I leave for California on Tuesday to help my daughter move to her new house. My son, yet to find a job after graduation from college last spring, has agreed to go with me. I am taking all the things my daughter has been unable to take on flights when
she has been home these last years. We should have quite a time driving across the country through this heat! 105 today with 80% humidity! Enought to kill you! Warnings all over the media and airways. Hope no one dies from this blast of the eternal furnace. Now I know how a lobster must feel being boiled alive!

Missed the journal quilt project again this year. Had every intention of finishing my project for the contest, as always life got in the way. The antique shop was just to good to pass up. Ron and I have wanted to do this together for 20 years. I look forward to great success! Quilting will have to wait.

I am planning to offer to teach a class this fall or winter at the local quilt shop. I think that "Making Your Own Mark" will be the course. Creative cloth type course. Haven't got the details worked out or the projects completed yet. Maybe postcards will be the outcome of the cloth. We'll see....
