Whirlwind effort

wool-gathering-books.jpg

I’ve had the idea for “quilt books” rattling around in my head for months now. There’s nothing like a good deadline to make me productive. I cut and quilted and bound and tore pages late into the night last night, and after enlisting Barry’s help to stamp tags and do finishing touches, we were able to slip into bed around midnight.

I toted my new creations to the Wool Gathering today. It was fun. I sat by some alpacas and a funny old man named Harry who was wearing a three-cornered hat while spinning on a spinning wheel. I chatted with friends and peddled my wares and had a quiet day spinning (and not chasing kids!).

Monday I will be photographer extraodrinaire and post my leftovers. Quilted sketch books for sale! Everyone needs a quilted sketchbook!

  1. what a cool idea. They look great and the wool gathering sounds so fun. Reminds me of the “maryland sheep and wool festival” that I used to go to each year with my family .

  2. Question, were you at the Wool Gathering at Young’s Dairy???? If so I somehow missed you :( I rembere the old genetleman who was missing his nap and spinning.
