Thursday we sat and assembled 180 patterns for a customer in Wisconsin. She wanted them for a Quilt Expo in September – I was blessed with such a huge order. And earlier in the week I sent out a large order to a customer in Ohio…I think my patterns are finally taking off – as well as on the Pattern Cupboard.
I assembled them and glued the photo on, while Doug stuffed them in the plastic bags.
This is only 1/4 of the pile we sent. I finally had to tie them in bundles of 10 because they were so slippery they kept going in every direction – had to go find a larger box by the time they were all finished.
I guess because I'm a proud Grandma I'm posting this.
Our Alexandra graduated last night - very simply I'll just say it was a great event for all of us.
We went to her Mother and Step-dad's early in the day for pictures. Alex had to be at the school by 6PM so they thought an early afternoon get together would be better.
