Petting Lomsters - Guilty Daughters

Keri hasn't finished the quilt, but she finally sent me the "lomster" photos yesterday, but I told her I had already posted the blog. So - here is Grammy showing Sarah how to pet the lobster. (You can also see that she is already a flip flop baby with pretty painted piggies!)



And here is Sarah getting up the courage to pet him.




Sarah loves going into Grammy's studio and goes in there as often as she can. She's not supposed to go in without me because there is so much to get into, not to mention sharp objects. She is enthralled with all my colorful threads and loves to play with the different variegated spools. I keep most of my thread on those wooden spool thingies that look like bleachers with wooden pegs. My dear mil gave me a small metal version of the same thing that she used to keep her small wooden spools of thread on. I bought a Bobbin Buddy that I absolutely love, but I have too many bobbins and need more. In the meantime, I keep the rest of my bobbins on the small metal thingy, as I have a lot of them to match my top thread. Sarah was obviously fascinated with them all being on that metal thing, and picked it up and turned it upside down - I guess to see what would happen. We know what happened. 8>) Now I really have a reason to buy more Bobbin Buddies!

I am excited that tonight I get to teach my very first class at Quilter's Quest. It is a fabric postcard workshop. Fortunately, there are only 4 people signed up to take it. It's a pretty small shop, so we will have enough room and I get to practice on a small group. That's good for me!
