new to this
Well am also trying this out. Have been too busy to get to the computer till today so am going thru lots of e-mails and just want to see if I can also do this. Thanks Pam for taking the time to get those who do not blog on the ball learning to do this and we will all benefit.

helloagain
Pam…thanks for setting this up for computer challenged people like me…I can now “post” and someday I can also add photos!
Is anyone else suffering from creativity block? Or maybe lack of appropriate motivation to go upstairs to my studio and just get to work!?

Wow! Can’t believe that I’m crawling into the 21st century, with Pam’s help, of course. Arleta

February Meeting
This is Lettie Blackburn’s new quilt that she showed at the Uncommon Threads meeting today. We met at Arleta Johnson’s house, and she fixed us all a yummy lunch of cucumber sandwiches, brownies and other goodies. There was lots of discussion and lots of catch-up since last month’s meeting was cancelled due to the ice storms.
Two members, Susan Leslie Lumsden and Emmie Seaman, used the winter months to start blogs, so the idea came up to create a group blog for everyone in the Uncommon Threads group to participate. So this is the blog!
After meeting, and lots of show and tell, Arleta treated us to a tour of her upstairs studio. She has an ingenius design/pin wall that slides out from a cubby space on rollers attached to a barn-door slider.
The unusual roof-lines create a cozy workspace that Artleta keeps neat and fresh looking. Her husband installed daylight bulbs that light the space very well.
Arleta is showing the back of her new quilt (which is just as designed and complex as the front) to Susan, Maureen, and Christina. Hey look, Maureen and Susan match the cutting board!
Here’s the front which uses lots of Japanese fabrics.
