I had the pleasure of working for Amy, Bonnie, Sally and Judy this past week. They are the organizers for “Applique Away On Galveston Bay”. What a great group of ladies. To find out more about their upcoming event for 2015 check out their website http://www.appliqueawayongalvestonbay.com/ It’s a really nice location for a workshop. Their were four hand applique teachers and each class was two days in length.
One evening at “Show and Tell” Vera brought her finished “Garden Medley” project. We won’t tell you how many years it took Vera to finish it!! I absolutely love seeing finished projects from my workshops. Thanks Vera for sharing. It looks great.
Here are some happy faces from my Wednesday-Thursday workshop.

Joe In Thailand
Joe was in Thailand recently visiting his brother and family. I thought you might enjoy seeing some of his photos. This was Joe’s second visit to Thailand.
Ayuttaya, the capital of Thailand from 1100- 1600, has some wonderful ruins
They are beautiful as seen during the day
or by night.
Five years ago Joe visited and played with a tiger cub. (Photo taken in 2010)
Joe visited with the same cub on this trip but both had grown a bit.
More from Joe’s visit next week

I thought Clover discontinued their 3/8″ bias maker and I was bummed. But, I was wrong. I found it and now have it along with the 1/4″, 1/2″ and 3/4″ on the website.

BOOK REVIEW
I read a previous V.I Warshawski’s, private detective, book and liked it so I went for a second book. This one takes place in Chicago. V.I’s closest friend, Lotty Herschel, lost most of her family in the Holocaust. Lotty fled to London with a childhood friend, Kitty. Kitty’s daughter is in trouble and her grandson is missing. The story takes you back to Lotty and Kitty’s past. I enjoyed this book and would read another one in this series.
