Our Halloween was wonderful.  Full of goodies and goblins.  We were fairly busy in the shop ALL day, and I still had to pull the Babies costume together!

Since we all know Mom (Jenny)  can work wonders, we whipped it out in NO time at all!  We had a great weekend and we are still feeling the effects of the sugar rush!  🙂

Here are my Goblins:

My Mom has always come to my rescue when it comes to costumes.  She put together the apron for the ‘Dorothy’ costume also.  (thanks Mom)

So, did you have homemade elements to your costumes or do you buy them all.  I’d love to know.

We have been planning for this day for quite a while…..and to say we were a bit nervous might be an understatement. (okay, mostly I was nervous….Mom can and will talk to anyone, anytime about anything!!)   We were very excited also, and couldn’t wait to share our ideas with such a big group.

We had a fabulous group of Women most from the Saint Louis, Missouri area and enjoyed visiting with them and getting to know them a bit.

They learned, they shopped and we all had a great time!

I hope you Girls have a blast at the Quilt Show in Iowa!   Can’t wait to see you again.

I was able to get a picture of the April Cornell, Spring Magic baby quilt we put together ….However, the lighting is terrible and I apologize.  (I will get a better one soon)

Anyway, this quilt went together pretty easily….we used one honey bun and BAM,  a baby quilt!  Colorful and bright, yet sweet and simple.  I love it.  I love April too, she’s the one with amazing color and design, right?!?!  🙂

So, how is your week shaping up?  Mine?  Well, let’s just say that if it could have gone wrong…..it  did. (you know, sick kids, broken down vehicles, drama)  heheh….

We have lot’s more in store for the rest of the week, though.  (I mean, it’s only Wed. right?)    We have a bus tour group coming on Thursday  (SO exciting!!) and Halloween on Saturday.  (wow, bye-bye October)   Halloween should be fun if we can get everyone well by then.  🙂

Oh, and girls (and guys too) we have been work-working away at the expansion….here check this out:

Just a tiny peak…but it’s getting there.   I know ladies, he’s hot.  Hand off though, he’s mine. We will have so much more room in our NEW classroom.  (I know we just finished a class room….we’ve already out grown it!)  That’s a good thing, and we are thrilled about it.  🙂

Have a great Wednesday!
