Greetings from a very windy, cold, snowy Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We are in the midst of a nasty cold spell like most of the midwest. Oh well, more time for quilting!
I don't miss many days checking the BB but never post - time for a change! I'll keep this first message short - I don't want to get long-winded and have the post disappear.
I just made a small quilt with 30s fabrics fromthe cover of a recent APQ magazine. I have the pleasure of being a long arm quilter and the quilt is loaded on the frame downstairs. I can hear it calling to me. When it's done I'll try to post a picture.
Stay warm!
Susan, where are you in the UP? My DH grew up in the Houghton/Hancock area and has never lost his Yooper accent, even though he hasn't lived there for 50 years.

Pat,
ReplyDeleteI live in Ironwood, at the far west end of the peninsula, in the heart of "Big Snow Country". My husband and I lived in Houghton for about 12 years and still go there occasionally for Tech sporting events and to see friends.
My brother teases me about my Yooper accent which I guess I've acquired after 28 years in the UP. I'm a Minnesota transplant.
Does your husband still have family in Houghton?
Glad to see you posting! Hope to see the pic of your 30's quilt too. Katie in ewen.
