A sky worthy of Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
"Bueller ..... Bueller ...."
And how did I spend it? Hanging out with this awesome crafty chick.
I have long admired Cathy's beautiful work and have been lucky enough to meet up with her on a few occasions. Today, I drove out to her home right near the beach and spent the day crafting, chatting and sharing a bit of show and tell.
Cathy helped me baste a quilt using clamps instead of tape which worked a treat. (Note to self: Must pop down to the hardware store this week).
She even made me a gorgeous lunch.
Check it out!!!
And I even got to see all of these beauties (and more) in the flesh ...

Enjoy ... but be careful not to damage your keyboard with all the drooling ;-)
And on my way out, I stopped to photograph some flowers in her stunning garden
So pretty!!!!
Thank you again Cathy for a gorgeous day.
Next time, my place!

I'm green with envy over here!
What a great day , wish I'd been a fly on the wall !!
Clamps...?
anyone...anyone?
I watched Ferris on Saturday (essential prep for going to Chicago!).
Sounds like an ace day and Cathy's work is amazing.
Sounds like a fabulous day ... what amazing quilts !
your quilt is looking great Andi, sound like a perfect day!
Wow! What a fun day! I want to be Cathy's friend ;) So in the picture it looks like the quilt is not fitting perfectly on the top of the table...hanging over the sides. Do you clamp beginning in the middle and then pin baste...reposition the quilt - clamp and pin? She has some amazing quilts!
Ahh Andi, you are way too kind. It was fun wasn't it, looking forward to the next time (can't wait to see your gorgeous litte folks all finished!). xo
OMG! Clamps! What a brilliant idea!
Yes, total jealousy has set in here! Great day!
So. You came home and exclaimed around your dinner table about THE BEST DAY EVER! Right? Just like my kids do. Right?
Andi: is that the quilt??? It looks AMAZING! I can't wait to see it finished...
Oh my! We should all have friends who feed us and then inspire us. Her quilts are B.E.A. Utiful! And nice Ferris reference. Classic.
Beautiful photographs!! It looks like you both had a great day... wish I could have been there! ;-)

I am so jealous! Looks like you had a wonderful day.
It really looks like it was a wonderful day. The flower pictures are wonderful!
