internet, bad checks and snowdyed fabric

I haven't posted in a few days since my internet has been very iffy. We did have some rain and when that happens I may as well forget about even getting on and then yahoo has been playing games also giving me an 999 error. So now to catch up with everything. If anyone is going to be staying at the Executive INN in Paducah for the show be sure to check out the pictures of them on the AQS blog. There are also pictures of what the convention center is looking like. Just one more week before I leave for Paducah!!! I have been getting ready for Paducah so here are a few of the snowdyed pieces I have done in the past week or so. They are all ready to go, right now I am concentrating on cutting fat quarters and yard pieces of batiks. I still have a little ironing to do of some gradations I did the other day and I do have some more snowdyed, shibori and gradations batching.

Tomorrow is Easter Sunday so I have a lot to do to get ready for that. My grandkids will be coming over and we will have an easter egg hunt here on the farm and also go into town for another hunt. We will also celebrate Kaycee's 5th birthday where oh where have all those years gone. She will be starting kindergarten in August.

Most quilters are so honest but then there are a few in every bunch, I got my first bad check sent back to me the other day from the bank. This one is from someone that was at The Gatherin. Why do people write checks when they know there isn't enough funds in their accounts. I took this to the prosecuting attorney's office the other day so I won't even mess with it.

internet and busy

I have been having nothing but problems being able to get into my email and onto any of my sites. The internet is sooooo sloooowwww.

I did notice I haven't posted in about a week but it just seems like there isn't anything to show besides not being able to post. I did finish the quilt top for my grandson BUT when I went to dye the back I didn't cut enough fabric and now I have to dye another piece. It's batching and I will get the washout done today and hopefully get it loaded onto the longarm. I also made a matching pillowcase. I have done lots and lots of running this past week.

I have order lots of batiks to sell at shows. I'll be doing $2 fat quarters as my special. When they get in I will be busy cutting them into fat quarters. I also have all my handddyed and snowdyed fabric ready to go.
