It's been almost two weeks since my last blogpost. I have been terrible busy with (mostly) very important things like visiting quiltfriends, taking care of computeritems (yes, my computer is reapaired, I have a new (secondhand) screen and I am online again) and visiting quiltshops all over the country for fun and stashbuilding.
Speaking about quilting: there are five blocks finished of Baltimore Bliss.
DH and I went to Breda, four hours by train from here. We had a lovely, sunny day and met one of my quiltfriends, Chrissie.
Last Thursday another quiltfriend and I went to visit Tineke. We had a wonderful time showing and admiring stitching and quiltwork. In fact, we were so busy talking, showing, looking, that we forgot to take pictures!
As I am supposed to start work again tomorrow I thought I might as well take advantage of the last days of summer, so yesterday I went to Deventer and Zutphen. Both places have a lovely quiltshop and in Zutphen I also met Jacqueline, we had a great day!
Now, unfortunately, fun is over, tomorrow real life is starting again. There's a job to be done but I hardly can wait until next summer!

beautiful quilts and your wips are looking good. Sounds like you had a lot of fun this summer.
I am so impressed with your applique, so very beautiful!
Sounds like a lot of fun.
Your quilt blocks are beautiful
Lovely photos - we were in Zutphen on August 18th!! We took a 'boot' from Dieren to Zutphen, then switched to the train up to Apeldoorn, then on a 'stoomtrein' to Eerbeek again :)
The quilt blocks are beautiful. The colors are so soft, yet they are still in the red/green pallet of Baltimore Quilts.
I love the quiltshop in Deventer, and yes it was great meeting Kaffe Fassett during the masterclass. bye bye Caro
Awesome stitching! Sounds like a great holiday, too.
