Collaging

 

This is what I've been having fun with. I'm teaching this Oct 15 and 29 at the Adel Library. These classes are full with a waiting list but I wanted to share this pic anyway.  This is the last class I'll be teaching in Adel as I prepare to start the next chapter of my life.

I recently bought a house in Ames where I will be much closer to kids, grandkids and my sister. The movers come Oct 21 but don't worry, I will be back in town for the Oct 29 class.

Adel will always hold a special place in my memory. Now there will be new memories made in Ames and I hope you will call me for coffee when you come to town!

The boys are on their way to the football field!

and in Texas. Jack actually broke his collar bone playing hockey.

 

Stitching with Lake View friends

 I recently had the pleasure of driving up to Lake View Iowa for a day of stitching with this group of quilters. As with every gathering of quilters, the day included this show and tell. I look forward to going back up again soon.

Elvis was in the house.

Here's a little surprise - - -

I have decided to relocate - - - closer to my Iowa kids and grandkids.

A move like this requires I go through and purge.  One of the items I am letting go of is my long arm.  

See description below and call me at 515-993-4115 if you are interested.  Schedule an appointment to come try it out.

Well maintained 1999 Gammill Classic with a 26" throat, 12' table and built in bobbin winder. Non computerized. Has never required professional service but has been regularly cleaned and oiled. Runs like a champ, $3500.

Includes a large selection of bobbins and thread, red snappers,  and miscellaneous long arm supplies.

Purchaser is responsible for disassembly, moving and reassembly. 

I am happy to give a lesson on loading and running before disassembly.
