Quilting

Just finished a four week quilting class at joann fabrics.  Met some remarkable ladies and learned some good skills to boot!

My quilt top is all finished, a red, white, and blue variation on an Irish chain, made with nine blocks and sashing.  I am really looking forward to having it all done.  If I'm a good student, I'd do it over this holiday weekend.  But I'm going to a hockey festival instead, haha.

I'll be less lazy and do pictures soon!

Hi Tiffany! i saw Sal's response to your 'utilitarian pants' e-mail. i'm on 'blog hiatus' right now, but a couple of my posts on style while camping (!) might be helpful to you.

these posts talk about using accessories to make a very basic outfit interesting. I style two different 'base layers' in three different ways each - with pictures!

i love my cargo pants, and love romantic, vintage looks. so i look to Amelia Earhart and Isak Dinesen for style inspiration re: cargos. Work clothing of the 1940's is a lot of fun, too. hope these help! steph
