Goings on!

Well I sit here just finishing my lunch and thought it was time for a short and sweet blog entry!  I am still hungry...doing weight watchers!  I feel like the little train that could... I think I can I think I can!

Well anyway been a busy few weeks!  The cupid sale was successful and got rid of some bolts of fabric so I can move in the new stuff!  I am really excited Reunion yardage has come and Curious Nature by David Butler is here.  Mom and I are working on piecing quilts for quilt festival!  I really just wanted to let you know that I have put up the newsletter on the website so you can see what is going on!  Lots of good stuff to come.  I am really excited for this summer I found a BOM that I think is perfect for the shop and my customers... let me know what you think!  I hope all is well...

O'Savannah how I miss you...

Well hello there!  What ya doing?  Hopefully you are stitching away! I have been doing some stitching and in between there I have been working on the shop's Hog Herald and class schedule!  Finally DONE!  What a relief....



Two weekends ago I traveled with Josh down to Georgia. He played paintball with the guys and I went to see one of my bestie's Nicole, her husband Berry (my second brother) and KELLAN!  Sorry guys he is so darn cute I was excited to see you too!  My little nephew... Nicole and I may not be blood but in another life we were!  I had such a warm welcome and TRUE southern hospitality! They live in Bluffton, SC really close to Hilton Head Island...but then just about a half hour right over the bridge is my favorite place... SAVANNAH!  I tell people all the time it really was the best four years of my life... not counting the last few here in Ohio. If I am blessed enough someday to have a little girl I will tell her stories of what a magical place it is.  Savannah is the home of my Alma Mat re Savannah College of Art and Design!  So it holds a very special place in my heart.  When Josh got done doing guy stuff he met us in Savannah for Lady and Sons and the next couple days Josh and I explored.  There are so many great things down there.  We even visited Tybee Island and the ocean unfortunately it was very foggy.  Anyway on our long car trip I did a bunch of stitching!  I am doing a personal project this year... Sue Spargo's BOM!  I have the block done the only problem is I can't find my milliners needle to do all the stitches... I will find.  I want to stay ahead of the ball game and have a project done from the year I get married.  I know I am a cheese ball. 


Well friends I am going to go get the electronic Hog Herald out!  If you have a minute check out what's going on here at the shop on my website www.olivegracestudios.com... I think I may be tired in May!
