THE MOST WONDERFUL WEEK!


Well, I knew it was going to happen.
Just not exactly when.

I went to a meeting on Monday morning,
and when I arrived at the shop.
There were boxes, lots and lots of boxes.


  

When the first box was opened, I took a deep breath.
It was here.  My turn in Quilt Sampler Magazine.
I can't tell you how wonderful it felt.




And then I opened it to page 122. 
There is was.  My story, my shop, my home away from home.




And then it dawned on me.  YIKES!  The kits need to be finished!
So, I planned a 'party'.




50 bolts of fabric had been cut.  All stacked in neat piles.




I made 20 little place holders.  
We could make 20 kits at a time.  Like dealing cards.




The Shipping Department had been making boxes.




Kay and Faith were straightening stacks.




Noel was counting, to 12.  Over and over again.




 Joyce and Kay Hobby were on Quality Control



And Kits were being produced!



The 'Shipping Department' was pleased with the results, 
and is now open for business!

We had a great time, and a nice dinner.
I have the best staff ever!

Now, I can go back to soaking up the fun.
