Putting away the snowmen

Yesterday, I cleaned and put away all the decorative snowmen I have sitting around the house. I am certainly ready for spring. On Monday we had 60+ degree weather and I took the opportunity to get outside and do a little cleaning in my flower garden. I hadn't cut down some spent flowers last fall because I was having so much trouble with my feet and hip. I have decided that I am definitely a beach babe. I do not like cold weather!

This week I have been busy with quilty things. Tuesday I went to my quilting buddy Pat's to do some more planning of quilts. I enjoy planning quilts together because it is fun to bounce ideas around and it is amazing how one little crazy idea can transform into a great design. Our friend Kaye gave us an EQIII Track System from Easy Quilter that will be set up at my house. It will be a while before it is set up because I need to make room for it in my sewing area and find a 2'x4' table to use for attaching it.  Do any of you use on? I would really like some feedback.

If you are interested in yoyos be sure to check my previous post by this Saturday.

I think I am a beach babe too. I do not do well in cold weather. How exciting it will be to have a fellow quilter already in place!!

Sounds like summer's on it's way. I don't mind cold, but dislike all the gloom and grey that we seem to get here in winter. I have to ask, what's an EQIII?
