Hi. I am Miriam and I live in Ireland. This is the first time I have ever used a blog.....This is very daunting for me. I have been quite busy over the last few weeks as we had our quilting weekend on Feb 12 - 14th. I took a class with Inike Berlyn which was super and I have been trying out her technique using sheers, nets as well as cottons........ I was also organising the weekend and then in my spare time I am Chairperson (President) of the Irish Patchwork Society.
My ideas for the challenge are very strong - in my head - but I hope that next week I will get started on it. I just made a "Moving Quilt" for my son-in-law who is opening a Leprechaun Museum here in Dublin next week. The quilt seems to move but it is an optical illusion. Now I have another job to do lfor him - A Leprechaun suit!!!!!!! Yes really.....
I am looking forward to doing some more "Normal" sewing next week.
We are a group of 20 women, from Australia, Canada, Ireland, United Kingdom, and United States who are interested in challenging our quilting and art skills. We have banded together to challenge ourselves every two months with a different theme or pallet.
See, Miriam -- it wasn't that hard. grin. Don't be afraid of

blog and the challenges just as much as the rest of us.
Good job! Shirley
