Quilting the Weekend Away - What Fun!

Jennifer left me alone all Friday night and Saturday to attend a Mystery Quilt Weekend. Apparently it involves cutting up a lot of little pieces of fabric, getting together with about 20 other women at a quilt shop and seeing who can put them together the fastest without knowing exactly what the finished product is going to look like until sometime Saturday afternoon. (They did have some direction from a teacher.)

Jennifer was invited to participate by hard core quilter Marti Price. Marti was an inspiration, racing ahead to be one of the first to get to "Step 10."

Jennifer tells me that this is the high energy teacher with her sister. Their energy was boundless, but Jennifer came home pooped. Apparently you need to be in good condition for a quilting weekend. I think she's been spending too much time in other activities to be up to her old stamina. It is such a curse not to be a woman.
