Spring has arrived and it will probably be Summer next week. I have finally summoned up the motivation to run again and have run one mile for the last two mornings. Not a huge achievement, but a beginning. I am looking for a recumbent exercise bike and I plan to work up to the half marathon. So my first run is a 5k on May 11th - the 'Crawdaddy Dash' so when I'm done we can go and eat crawfish!
So to quilting news. The girls from Charlotte came down for another lesson and had a really good time. I am so grateful to them, they motivate me and are so happy with the frame and what they can do with it - it really makes me feel so good about the whole process. They also had some wonderful ideas the I will share soon - I can't tell you how much fun it is when my PQ3000 customers come up with good ideas for making it better!
The one block wonder class was a lot of fun and I am looking forward to teaching it again. I need to send in my show entry for Grand Rapids tomorrow, and then it is time to work on the Hoffman Challenge.
So, I have a baby clothes quilt to complete and then a few classes to work on - both classes are hand work - Cathedral Windows and English Paper Piecing.
Time for bed - I had a lovely weekend that included a really excellent production of 'King Lear' by USC in Columbia. I love Shakespeare and have spent many happy Saturday afternoons at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford Upon Avon watching a matinee performance. I think it is fabulous that good Shakespeare performances are so prevalent here in South Carolina and in Charlotte, North Caroline.
Happy days with warm temperatures and sunny days - I love this place! Sunshine makes the world seem better and all is well.
