The first thing I want to share with you is my friend Barb’s finished block from the class she took from me in July. This is from the Fiesta Mexico Block 9 workshop. Nice job Barb, and thanks for sharing.

Joe took some more wonderful photos of the hummingbirds while they filled themselves before making the great big trip to the Yucatan. When I think that these tiny little creatures make such a long journey every year it amazes me. And just think if your wings had to move back and forth that many times to keep you going and going and going…. It is exhausting just thinking about it. I wish them all a safe journey and will look forward to seeing them back here next year.

Finally….the pendant lights have arrived and our electrician, Jim, installed them today. I am beyond excited. They look amazing in the room.
OK, I may have mentioned this before….but I watch way too much HGTV. I kept seeing the designers use these interesting white textured lights and I always love them; however, thought they would never work in my house. But, in my studio they work perfectly. I love them. They are made by a company called Nuevo Living. My local light store, Yale Lighting, was able to order them for me.
Jim was able to place them on an adapter so they hang from my track lighting. I used three of them in the room. One over the sewing machine tables. One over the sofa. And one over my ironing board.
Another task light I added to my room is this one I placed beside my sofa. It is made by Craftlite Dublin and is called a Magnfi Light. I got mine from Keepsake Quilting www.keepsakequilting.com This light could be used as a table light, clip-on light or as I have mine, a floor light. It comes with all the options in one box. It has 21 large LED lights and a 5″ diameter magnifier. I love this light.
Until next week….
