Good luck with the rest and I look forward to seeing it all together. It does take some time but it will be worth it in the end.

We are getting lots of rain in SD, (huge change from last years drought) so the haying work has come to a screeching halt, so tomorrow I will get to finish the button hole stitching on my spool quilts outer boarders, then my long arm quilter will get it in the mail. How is the book coming? It is midnight here so I am off to bed. Night all.

Susan, your Spools quilt is wonderful!

Last month at guild, Edyta Sitar was our speaker. She was AMAZING! So friendly, energetic, inspirational, humble and funny. Her lecture was called "Reasons for Quilts" and she showed about 80 quilts and told about each one!! Each quilt was prettier than the one before it. I saw her SOTTT quilt and her Spools quilt - both are wonderful!

Well, after that trunk show, I decided my reels had marinated long enough! I went out and bought my background batik, and sorted through my stash to find tops and bottoms for each reel. Tonite, I sewed my first two and I am having so much fun! Like Susan, I will be making the Spool quilt from Edyta's book (which I bought there and she autographed!).

Here's a pic of my first two spools. More to come...

Oh, and if you ever have the chance to see Edyta, DO IT!!! You will be blown away and so inspired!

Fabulous quilt Susan. Well done! And so quickly too... I keep getting sidetracked, and now that my Friends found out that my Brother Receiver a quilt for his 50th Birthday, they're all making hopefully hints. Of course they're all getting One too, i only wish we were not all practically the Same Age... Busy busy busy is what I'll be in the next couple of years, but I so want to turn all my reels into beach huts soon!!!

Susan101 OFFLINE Posts: 9	Thanks for all wonderful comments. I just followed the pattern in Edyta's book. I loved the pattern so much that I didn't want to change anything. I am going to put a label on the back with everyone's names so I will remember where they all came from. I can't wait to see some of the other quilts finished. Susan
