I haven't blogged recently but I have been reading blogs and making plans to post but-----.
I am getting ready to go on a little vacation. I am going to visit oldest son and his wife in Baltimore and while there, attend Artscrape. I am really looking forward to the visit. These two spoil me wonderfully!!! Already they have schedule an afternoon at the Spa as soon as I get off the plane. They did the same thing last year and I had to be awakened to get ready to go. That good smelling oil, the music (with birds chirping no less) and those warm rocks are the "bomb"! I am going to also go to my favorite fabric store and stock up on african prints. All in all, I intend to forget I am a working woman and pretend I am one of leisure with an unlimited bank account :)!
On the quilting front---I am dyeing fabric for a specific quilt pattern. The colors didn't come out quite like I wanted, but that is okay! It is sorta not my usual style, but then I think it is okay to "stretch" yourself.
I am still not finished quilting Yin-Yang! I don't know what the problem is! It has never taken me quite this long to complete a quilt before. I have just about 3 more passes to go though and I will be done. I committed to making some drapes for my son though a LONG time ago and am in the process of finishing them up to take with me, so no quilting this week-end!
Well, just wanted to check in! More (with pics) to follow!

The spa trip has me wondering if your son and daughter in law want to adopt me for a day! Enjoy yourself to the max!
