Linda, I'm sure you are an old hand at packing now and can probably do it at 4:15 and not be late.

Sewing like mad trying to get projects done before my hand surgery Thursday. Finished this month and next month's little quilts for my class Wednesday and almost done with two UFOs using African fabric for my quilt guild this month.

I love the African fabrics; so bright and colorful. I'd love to see those quilts when you are done.

I have two of those big under the bed boxes full of mostly African and some Australian fabric. I didn't buy any of it. Any time we were at a quilt show or shop hop DH would look for it and buy some. He did learn to sew and made one quilt top (which is on my UFO list to quilt). I told him I had no idea what to do with it -- I'm more of a traditional reproduction quilter. The boxes were missing for a while but were finally unearthed in DH's junk room so now I feel I have to do something with it. I just finished two tops -- I haven't taken pictures yet but will when I can. I didn't make a noticable dent in it yet.
