Hi, everyone! The answer to my "where is everyone" question is "painting"! DH and I are renovating a 1920s farmhouse. We had a contractor to do most of the work, but we thought we could handle all the interior painting...hah! Spent most of the last 2 months painting, and still lots of trim work left to go. Barely touched a sewing machine all summer. Anyway, the rest of the painting will get done a bit at a time, so we can get back to normal life.
On the quilting front, I've challenged myself to finish the 2013 BOM by Sept 19, so I can submit it to the AQS show in Albuquerque. Still lots of quilting to go...think I can make it?
Haven't been able to read all the posts I've missed (!), but I'm glad to see that Margo got her sewing mojo back! The "force" has been restored in the quilting universe!
