    1. Joan! I'm so glad you've come for a visit. My eyes are dazzled by all the wonderful things quilt women (and men!) are doing in this world. Just when I think it couldn't get any better.....it gets better! Love what you have been doing too. Hope our hoppers have a good day and take in your lovely work as well.
