"OUT w/ THE OLD & IN w/ THE NEW"

Hey quilters....hope everyone's New Year is off to a great start. I've been "forced" to upgrade my software recently & if you know me I'm always about cherishing the history of items. But I've recently came to grips there is a difference between repurposing an "Old Quilt" & a laptop! Sad to say my "old laptop" wasn't even old! Technology is changing everyday so I'm especially glad when someone asks me to "repair" an old quilt to keep it & when they gift-it forward. I always say...."if this quilt could talk"....how many stories were told while piecing and quilting this quilt. I do love my new advanced laptop for designing quilts & getting used to "all my new gadgets" it has to offer :-) Anyway, below is also a pic of what I've been "up to" this year. I'm proud to say our group "Friends of the Library" is doing a Scholarship for a Frankston High School student. The "Hot pad runner" was appliqued & outline quilted with 50# weight AURIfil thread. And yes....again no thread breakage while using this great quality thread! More details soon about the chance to purchase tickets for the fundraiser in our local paper & on Facebook.
As always, email me any q's!
Blessed Quilting from my Home to Yours!,
