QuiltCon was a blast! So much so that I will need to break up the posts to tell you all about it.
Let's start with Friday evening! Alyssa from Pile O' Fabric hosted
a dinner for the participants of the Skillbuilder BOM and it was fantastic! Aside
from actually meeting other participants and putting a face with a Flickr screen name (and a real name, and a blog name, and a modern quilt guild – so
much to remember) we showed off our Skillbuilder blocks in our Flickr photostream to each other.
Alyssa was a wonderful hostess, as she had a couple of fun games for us to play. One was to identify fabric (modern of course) and then Kona colors. I thought for sure I would nail the Kona colors. Umm, no. I only got 1 out of 10 correct. Oh well – it was fun anyway. There was also a pin cushion swap but it was just too far down on my list to get done so I admired all the great pin cushions that everyone else got.
