Some photo fun.......

Catch-up time here, I guess, since I've not had much time to blog lately......no real sewing done lately, either, due to a very busy weekend (and this upcoming week looks to be about the same).

Friday I did a GO! cutter demo for 7 gals who had been unable to see the cutter demo'd at the recent big quilt show in PA. Joan (3rd from the left in the photo) hosted us and fixed us a nice lunch. We spent about 3 hours together and everyone enjoyed using the GO! As with all of us who have them, the gals were utterly amazed at the speed and accuracy of the pieces they cut with my GO! More GO! cutters will be "living" in my area soon!!! We had a fun time that day!Today I will be going with my quilting pal, Kathy (click HERE for her blog) to meet up with another quilting blogger, Michelle (click HERE for Michelle's blog). We are going to JoAnn Fabrics as well as an Amish quilt shop outside of Dover and an Amish market. It should be a fun day, although I'd have preferred some nicer weather. I'll report about this in my next blog post.

I'll leave you with a few photos taken by my daughter on a family outing by the Brandywine River in PA on Saturday. I enjoyed seeing these photos as they really seem to capture the beautiful fall weather they had that day. In a couple of them, you will see my little granddaughter, Jessi, who is healing very nicely from her recent skin surgeries, I am happy to report and to thank all of you, once again, for your prayers on her behalf.

You are such a good ambassador for the GO product Pat! They should send you Baby Go as well as you do such a great job of promoting their products.

Your daughters photography is beautiful! I especially love the picture of Jessi by the water.

Brandywine used to be one of our favorite places to go when I was a kid. Thanks so much for the pictures.

Love those pretty autumn photos, esp the mums. I'm so glad you really enjoy your Go! I can tell by the photo that those ladies enjoyed it, too!

Glad to hear Jessi is healing well.

Wow! Your daughter's photos are beautiful! She must get her creative talent from her mother.

Have fun on your trip.

I really want to see a Go! cutter in person and see a demo. It's hard to decide just by looking at a video. But none of the nearby quilt shops have it and we don't have a JoAnns. I'm hoping to find one soon though. I looked on Amazon and can't tell by there descriptions if everything is there or it you need to buy more but their prices seem to be good. blessings, marlene
