  2. Congratulations! I love stars so this quilt is right up my alley! I'm already a follower. Memorial Day was very laid back around here as it was raining cats and dogs but the next day we went out to the cemetery to visit my mom and dad and sister and brother's graves. On Memorial Day we finished making the hair bows, garter, etc. for my daughter's wedding that was June 2nd.

  7. Congratulations on being published! Being a Canadian, we don't celebrate Memorial Day, but this year we were holidaying in Oregon on that weekend. We were staying at the Pacific Pines RV Park in Florence and upon check-in we were invited to a BBQ. It was awesome - English Bangers and Tri-Tip Sandwiches. Lots of very nice people as well.

    Love to win a copy of the magazine.

  10. What a dream come true! I'd love to win "an autographed copy" of this great magazine. For Memorial day I went to town and quilted on a long arm machine then spent the rest of the weekend in the sewing room. ;)

  18. I'm so happy for you. What a great honor!! Your quilt is one of my favorites and I was thinking it may be one of the next ones I'll be making. For Memorial Day my 5 daughters and myself got together in San Diego for a "Sister's Weekend". We had fun laughing, eating at the Gas Lamp district, and just enjoying ourselves. Congrats again!!
