Maggie

 This is Maggie.  I discovered her, upside down, in a basket, in a dark corner of Chapters on Robson.  She was sitting, quite undignified waiting for me to rescue her.  The sign attached around her neck told me that her name was Maggie and that she has a vivid imagination and never lets the facts get in the way of a good story!
We chatted for awhile and she agreed to come home and be my Quilting Muse.

She moves around the quilt studio to get the best view of the current work in progress.  She usually doesn't say too much but is never critical either.
I think it's a match made in heaven!

Vancouver Modern Kona Challenge!

What to do?  What to do?  The Vancouver Modern Quilt Guild managed to get us all a pack of Kona Solids!  The challenge?  To make something with them and the fabric is to be the feature.  I scoured quilt books, checked out blogs and Flicker pictures for a week.  I think I have finally decided what to do.  I'm heading off for a week of R&R and taking my sewing machine so I'm anticipating great things will happen!  It almost seems a shame to cut into them.....maybe I will just use them as a solid piece???????  Only time will tell.

P.S.  Not only did I get the one charm pack, but I also WON another pack at the guild meeting last week!  I'm in heaven!!!!!!
