It's been a while

It's been a while since I've posted anything.  Tomorrow we will pack up and head to Sierra Vista, AZ for a quilt show.  This is sponsored by the Hummingbird Stitchers Quilt Guild.  It is a Saturday and Sunday show.  Looking forward to seeing our customers there.  The quilts are also amazing.  We will be doing a Drive In Drive By Quilt Retreat at Butterfield RV Park on April 8-10th.  The cost is $250.00 and includes two days of classes, three nights of RV camping, breakfast and lunch on Friday and Saturday with a brunch on Sunday. 

We've got some new fabric in.  You can go to http://www.cowgirl-upquilts.com/ .  Laura

Normal weather

Neat button fabric at http://www.cowgirl-upquilts.com/

Our Arizona sunshine and warmth has returned finally. I hope last week was the only week of winter that we will have and hopefully not get that cold again, for another 60 years, but we were very lucky to escape with only frozen hot water for a day.  Time to get back to getting the filly ready to show.  The days are getting longer so maybe I can sneak in a ride more often after work.  The shop has been busy, but I don't think as busy as last year at this time.  We will be doing a quilt show in Sierra Vista the last weekend of the month.  Looking forward to doing that.  Not far from home and only two days. 

Deep Freeze

We survived the deep freeze last week.  It was 1 degree on Thursday morning when we let the dogs out.  Our hot water froze, but that was about it.  Nothing froze at the shop.  We had to carry water we heated on the stove to the barn to water the horses.  Hopefully that was our week of winter this year.  We are having a sale at http://www.cowgirl-upquilts.com/.  Everything in the store is 25% off.

Still cold

It has turned cold and windy.  Yesterday we got some much needed rain.  Our trees were in need of a good drink.  Tonight it will get down into the upper 20s and then I think colder for a few nights.  Luckily we are not in the midwest.  Looks like a mess there.  I do have some fabric shipping from there, that seems right now to be missing in action, but I'm sure it will show up in a day or so. 

Right now I need some happy fabric like this one at http://www.cowgirl-upquilts.com/.  It is by George Mendoza for Free Spirit.
