Wednesday, March 16, 2011 at 9:52AM Things that are making me happy*
1. New pens. This might seems like a little thing, but it's actually a huge thing. I love one brand of pen and only one. A few years ago, I bought two big packs of some pens that looked the same, but trust me, they aren't. I hate those pens. They skip, they take awhile to warm up, and the clip on the cap always breaks off. So I broke down and bought four (4!) boxes of my favorite pens. Two black, one blue, one purple. SUCK IT, AWFUL PENS. (For those interested, these are my pens of choice.)
2. KC Modern Quilt Guild. Last week's meeting was amazing. We all showed off our challenge quilts. Here's mine:
Everything's Coming Up Triangles. Photo by Carla.Carla was so nice and let me snag this picture from her blog. You should go check out the rest of the pictures she took at the meeting. It was a riot of color in that room, and every quilt was better than the last. I have a lot more to say about my quilt, but I'll save that for later in the week when I actually get my act together and take some pictures. I will say that after working on it pretty much non-stop for a week (it came out of the dryer 15 minutes before I left for Guild), I still wanted to come home and sew some more.
