But it's four weeks until Spring 2016 International Quilt Market in Salt Lake City.

You know what that means - Fabric?  Lots of it.  Can't show it to you yet.  Quilts.  A few.  Can't show those either.  There's building going on and a few folks have earned some merit badges for work above-and-beyond the call of duty.  Pictures?  Nope.  Soon.

What I can tell you is that a little gathering of us took a trip down a country road near a grand canal outside Baltimore on a Saturday morning for some farm fun.  We saw blooms from the desert and fleurs at a lovely flower market tended by a little girl named Olive.  Our day was filled with chestnuts, acorns and some hazelwood, and we ate pumpkin pie with a darling little boy named Dickens.  We spoke about books and Manderley until a plush kitten meowed.  After our journey of hope, we found some lovely handmade trinkets that lustered in the sun just a hop, skip and a jump away.

That makes no sense whatsoever, does it?

It will.

Okay, it probably won't but it'll have to do until later.

One last thing to share.

We shared a picture on Instagram and Facebook done by a lovely quilter named Lori College.  Lori is the store manager at Thimble Pleasures Quilt Shop in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.  She writes a blog titled SewSleepless and after seeing this series of pictures with different captions, she wondered what these expressions would mean if "Lucy was a quilter..."

We shared that image and then Lori re-did the last image...

We love Lucy.  And we love Lori!  Thank you!

Happy Friday!
