Quilts gone wild - The true confessions of an unraveled quilter

Well, after nicely cleaning up my studio last week, it once again looks like a bomb has exploded in a quilt shop. This weekend was a blur as I quilting furiously, finishing up the last three quilts for my book... well okay, one still has some binding work to do, but all in all I'd say we got some real progress made!

{ Witness the Carnage and Aftermath }

I say we because I recruited my mom-in-law to do the binding on one for me - THANKS JEANNE! I'd also like to thank my Mom and Dad who have made a kind donation of time and moolah for booth "goodies", pattern editing, testing and a brand spankin' new laser printer. WOO-HOO! My whole family it feeling the Market burn.

The rest of this week will be spent muddling through the final stages of my manuscript, crossing t's and dotting i's. I must confess that I did procrastinate a bit, sneaking out for a manicure on Sunday and enjoying some home-made Mojitos on Friday night.. *ahem*

On our outing Friday evening for said Mojito ingredients, I stumbled across this sweet bird planter full of miniature roses that I just had to give a good home. I am pretty anxious to see the roses bloom - according to the little plant stake it's supposed to be three colors in the same plant. Way cool.... if I manage to keep it alive that long. I have a reputation for a brown thumb with indoor plants - but I'll keep thinking positive thoughts on that one! :)
