You’ve been promoted.
I have had a quick glance at your job description this morning and as members of the Management team, you are “expected to make complex decisions within concrete parameters”

Rainbows and feathers.
When I heard that the Bloggers quilt festival was on again I just had to get involved this time.

Dress Rehearsal
I finished my Thirtysomething Stars quilt; unless I decide to border it. It is an enlarged version of my quilt, Dress Rehearsal from my book, Thirtysomething.
