My Dad's Quilt and There's A New Blogger In Town

I'm back to work today and I can't believe it is almost time to go home already!
The day went by so quickly.
Just thought I would take a minute to share the progress I've made on my dad's quilt top.
 I managed to sew (after loads of unsewing) the first 4 rows of the quilt.
 I have 2 rows of 2 sewn together.
I like the effect so far.
 What do you think?

Also, My DD2 has a good friend that is her age that loved my quilts sooooo much 

it made her want to learn! 

Specifically these two Noah's Ark quilts that I made using a panel and designing around them.

(Sorry they are so tiny here, my actual pics are on my FB and this is how they loaded here)

I made these for a friend that had twins. 

So anyway, my new quilting friend is Stacey, and she just started a quilting blog. 

 Her blog is called "My Old Quilting Soul".

 So if you have a minute pop on over to her blog, leave her a comment, maybe even become her newest follower! 

 She would be so happy to have you. 

 It's so important for us to encourage new talent! 

 She is already talking about fabric she *needs* to buy. 

  Welcome to the club, Stacey!! 

Tell her Mama Spark sent you!
