My sister Ronda and I are in Hamilton, Missouri. YES -- WE ARE AT MISSOURI STAR QUILT COMPANY -- for a Featherweight Retreat.
 |
| Ronda (in red) is with me this week -- and Deena will be at our upcoming Summer-Sister-Sewing-Retreat. |
 |
| Ronda has many skills -- she and Dean do the Farmer's Market every week... |
 |
| But, mostly, she is famous for her RAGGED EDGE FLANNEL BLANKETS...which she produces like she was a factory!! |
Holy Cow!! COULD I BE IN A HAPPIER PLACE?? Carmon and April Henry are on their world tour -- doing Featherweight Retreats all over the USA!!
I met Carmon and April when I interviewed them for Inspired To Sew magazine last year. But this will be the first time I get to MEET THEM IN PERSON!! Ronda and I are SO EXCITED!!

 |
| We are going to learn EVERYTHING WE NEED TO KNOW about our Featherweights. |
 |
| If we have spare time, Ronda will no doubt make YET ANOTHER RAGGED EDGE QUILT... |
 |
| Ronda's Featherweight is a 1952 in perfect condition. |
 |
| Memphis had her first sewing lesson on Ronda's Featherweight |
 |
| Lilly is getting more comfortable with it every time we make something. |
 |
| Life just doesn't get any better than this, people!! |
I love how you are teaching these young girls to sew! Especially on such fine, well made machines. My Home Ec heart is happy!
