quick correction: http://www.simplebites.net

congratulations terrie - i do like your grandsons from what you mentioned - they seem very spunky kids
like the website - couldn't find anything useful under .com tried .ca that didn't exist but they suggested the .net version and yeahhhhh success

i'm with you all on theose extra HSTs and yes terrie, an all red & white limitation would also be very interesting (that red&white exhibition has us all thinking about our own version, i think) but where to find the time ???

A sincere and hearty thank you for all your support and congratulations all around on my good news.

I love this sisterhood ( though I know there are a few guys amongst us!). I agree with the idea of not ever having enough HSTs. I also want to make every pattern I see. It would be neat to see what we could do just limiting the colours to say, for example, red and white HSTs This event has and will end up taking almost a year from seed idea to a published book! Wow - we're making history here, girls (and guys).

BTW - if 'allowed' I'd like to plug for my now pregnant daughter-in law's Blog. It is called "www.simplebites.com" She won first place for best new Canadian blog over all categories for 2010.

She tells about her news there too!

If I could, I would come to visit you & we could do a happy dance together, but in the meantime, this will have to substitute: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iANRO3I30nM And I'm thinking that "cheeky" is a wonderful way to describe my 2 grandsons! Wish you all many blessings!

GigiWendy OFFLINE Posts: 108 Thank you received: 47	Terri - Congratulations. I certainly hope you get your granddaughter wish come true. I too had a boy and only one. I do agree that boys are easier to raise (my family provided some that I watched from afar). Poor son, he's going to have a lot of pressure from me to produce MANY grands! I'm even mean enough to hope he has a girl to deal with! Wendy

Hello dear Sisters!
It sure has been quiet around here - the forum- in the past few days. Well, I decided to share some good news with y'all. I'm going to be a gramma again, This will be #4! Did I tell you that I have four -(4) sons, and three-(3) grandsons. The paternal great grandmother has 14 grandchildren of whom ONE is a granddaughter, so the odds are not in favour of having a granddaughter. However, I do believe in miracles. I just hope to get a chance to do a little girl quilt someday! The present grandsons want to call their new baby 'Bob the Builder' or 'Thomas', or as the 5-year-old suggested "Maybe Momma will 'lay' a girl! (yes, they have chickens in the backyard)! Too cute!

I have been away for a week, and now back to finishing that HST top.
Have a wonderful week!
Terrie

Congratulations Terrie! Your grandsons' comments are so funny. I just read it to my husband and daughter and we got a good chuckle this morning.

I will pray for a daughter for you, I have only 1 son who I love dearly and he was a joy to rear but a daughter would have been a blessing but we didn't get any more, my son and his future wife have promised me granddaughters to spoil, lol........I am a very clucky grandmother.
Regarding our quilts project, another half finished quilt has been donated to us so that will make a round 20.
The Cairns City Council has offered for us to display the quilts in the foyer so we will be setting them up on Friday, will take picture to send.
Cheers,
Louise

Lorchen OFFLINE Posts: 2639 Thank you received: 50	Congratulations, Terrie! And if it's another boy..... I just love little lads. I prefer trains and tractors to barbie dolls. There is a boy in my school who is the youngest of 11 brothers. His oldest brothers son is in the same year group. I have super memories of these lads. They are all very cheeky, a lot of fun, and they all look alike.

Clara, I heard that TQS is making a reservation for dinner at a local restaurant near the Convention Center on Thursday night (probably about 7 pm after the show closes?).

Shirley

Did you check the event listings?? Thursday evening is the Quiltpalooza with Ami Sims. Would like to attend that, but don't want to miss out on TQS get-together.

Roseanne, check out the thread "Houston Quilt Fest 2011-TQS Dinner" and look at Wanda's first post on page 1. All the info about the dinner and making a reservation is there.

Cheers,
Shirley

Thanks, Shirley!
