Happy Birthday Carson!!

Carson's 9th birthday was last Tuesday. I can't believe that my "baby" is NINE YEARS OLD! But he was so happy with his presents and VERY excited that we had a huge SNOWSTORM on his birthday - that has NEVER happened before. It wasn't enough snow to cancel the buses, but it was exciting anyway.

Spring has Sprung

I can't believe that it has been a month since I last posted!! But, in my defense, I have been a little busy.

At the end of February I attended the Quilt retreat in Morrisburg that Nellie organizes. I didn't quilt though, I decided to SCRAPBOOK since I am way behind in my pictures - I got lots done and had a great time!!

For two weeks in March we headed down to Florida for our annual March break vacation. A few days visiting Mom and Dad in their new little house, a few days in rainy Cocoa Beach then a four day Carnival Cruise with our friends Lynn, Blake and Alexia. That was lots of fun - but we ate WAY too much!!! And now that Easter has come and gone, I think it is time to think about more exercise and less food!!!

Favourite Haunts

Back in the summer, Patti Carey at Northcott Fabrics sent us some digital images of their next Halloween fabric lines and asked us to design a couple quilts for them. This week they called to say that one of the fabric lines will be arriving soon and to start publishing the pattern. This is our newest pattern and it is called "Favourite Haunts". It will be available in Quilt shops and on our website http://www.uppercanadaquiltworks.com/uppercanadaquiltworkspublishingco/index.html soon!
