"Getting Janome"

 First Quilt Top on my new sewing machine - Getting Janome 😉😉

I used star  and churn dash blocks from past Funwithbarb swaps.  What do you think? 

It started like this.  It was just sitting there waiting for something.....anything to happen.

Then I swapped out the light squares and wow - what a difference!   I had the green triangles already cut out from a project that never got put together.
I'll admit that this strippy style setting sometimes throws me off!
I guess angles can still confuse me.   I mean, really??
I recently went on a great bike ride with my son, Andrew.  It was fabulous to be back on my orange bike.  
I even got a shout out for my pink streamers 😁
The path is an old train line from the 1800s that ran between NYC and Boston.

Here are a few more workshop photos of my recent visit to the Genesee Valley Quilt Club.  Thanks Ladies for  being so enthusiastic and fun.

Special thanks to Nick for  helping set up and helping me throughout the two days.
The last night of my visit Christine and I had dinner with the guild president, Peggy and her husband.  Afterwards we went to a performance of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra.  It was incredible! 
They perform at the gorgeous Kodak theater.
What a treat!
I'll leave you with this little applique' quilt I made with a Gwen Marston pattern in 1996.
Thank you to everyone who attended my Zoom talk last Monday!
Happy May
