This is our 28th First Date which occurred on Valentine's Day, 1979. The rest is history! We enjoyed a quiet evening at home--even though there was a big "doin's" at Millie's Restaurant in town, we prefer private ;)...and...Thursday night is our weekly massage night! Tsegi comes to our home every Thursday evening for fantastic Chinese-style massage. Ahh...but Randy gets the star; he braved after-work traffic (think New York traffic on steroids) and post-Tsagaan Sar shortages to track down beautiful roses and real truffles!
I'm so tickled to be a part of this year's Bloggers' Quilt Festival ! My entry was done in Outer Mongolia (literally! --read on). This quilt is one of my favorite recent projects that I named "Renegade Geisha's" --renegade because two of the geisha's don't conform to the rest (mainly because I ran out of coordinating fabrics!). Can you find the two renegades? ;) The quilt incorporates fabric origami and the quilt itself is from Fantastic Fabric Folding --many projects from this book were a big hit with the Mongolian class pictured below. Due to my husband's work, we live in Mongolia; and I was privileged to teach classes at a local quilting studio. I've included a picture of the class where we were working on the geisha blocks. The students spoke almost no English and I speak what I call Monglish--a lot of English sprinkled with Mongolian. Regardless, we all had a blast! ...and, I'm very pleased with this quilt of mine!
