A book winner and Quilt in public day

I numbered the comments and had my husband pick a number and the People & Portraits book winner is Linda Kittmer, congratulations! Thank you to all who read the blog and entered to win.

Yesterday a few of us set up a booth at the Farmers Market and celebrated "Quilt in Public Day". I volunteered to bring 2 tables for us to use, so Friday was clean out the back of Studio B to find the tables day. This is how it looked, in the back left of center there are some tables leaning up against the wall. I wanted the two that are hiding behind the ones you can see.
I did manage to get them out, but all those empty boxes I was saving are now stacked on my print table waiting to get recycled. I really should be spending to day actually getting the space clean and organized, especially since I know that sometime this week I have a friend bring relatives by for a studio tour. I did get a few pictures from yesterday.

This morning I took a walk up the street to get a picture of the fiddle that I decorated back in May 2010.
Here you can see how the fiddle is hanging from a light pole.
Here is a close up, the sun hadn't quite gotten high enough for good light. I did write several posts about it while I was doing it. Here's a link to the finished post. http://notesfromstudiob.blogspot.com/2010/06/my-fiddle-takes-first-place.html

Daily stitching updates and Quilt in public day

Don't forget you have through Saturday the 15th to comment on my last post to have a chance at winning the People and Portraits book from Lark.

This week has been quite unproductive, seems like everyday there was something to keep me from studio time. Next week will probably be even worse, it will be "Fiddle" week here in Weiser and I've got three days of volunteering plus time spent enjoying the festivities.

Tomorrow will be the first day of the local farmers market and it's also International Quilt in Public day so my friend Barbara Huck has organized a group of us to be at the farmers market with some quilts. She had read about it in a magazine and decided it was something we needed to do. I'll try to remember to take pictures.

So here's what I have done this week.
365 Red Circles #159 - #165, plus a close up


Indigo and Rust #87 - #93, and a close up


Week #24, and a close up
