Janet's Post

This from Janet who spent an extra week in Haiti!


Well with the help of Deb and John and Ammonia, I announced that after they completed their big quilt we were returning to Applique and. These blocks had to be well done and they were going to New Hampshire to Liz, Sarah, Maureen, Sophie, Melanie, and Zola, this they were very happy to do and I got amazing blocks of a caliber that far exceeds any work they have done before.

Oh Yes, at 10:00 or so another 5 came, I was a little flummoxed, but finally said ok and in they came. It actually worked well as they had projects started.

It was perfect, very quiet and they just visited back and forth just as it is and was in the early days of quilting bees.  They totally enjoyed each other and the quiet, suddenly they realized that they heard me saying the same words and they started saying them and laughing, we then danced and sang, it got a little crazy for awhile. Crystal and Fanny (The teachers for the grades kindergarden and 1st in Bois d'Avril )  came from the school for their sewing lessons and I started a baby quilt for the girls which we will finish tomorrow.  Good news, Crystal came to see everyone working this morning and was very impressed, she seemed to enjoy the sewing herself this afternoon.

At 6:00 I have Louchar (the night watchman), Ammonia, and Crystal, and I hope that is all for a few hours of sewing and then a little food, telly and bed to start again.
