Two New Quilting Events

I hope you are well, both physically and mentally. These are strange days, there's no doubt about it. I have to go get our weekly groceries sometime today, which used to feel like a perfectly ordinary thing to do, and now it feels like I'm doing something just a little wrong by going into a building other than my own house. Anyone else feel that way??

Covid-19 may have the in-person quilting world shut down, but our online community is still going strong. We've just finished the Stay at Home and Shop Hop (click the link if you missed it!) and now today there are two more events starting 😊

First up, there's the Spring Clean Your Studio Blog Hop, hosted by Cheryl Sleboda, of Muppin Inc.

I don't even have a studio and I needed to be part of this blog hop! I am so looking forward to peeking into other quilters' studios, both to live a little vicariously through them and to plan for the day when I will have my own studio. I have been doing some cleaning and organizing, too, so I'll be sharing that on April 11th. In the meantime, here's the schedule so you can peek into their studios, too. I don't know about you, but I can use all the organizing ideas I can get.

The second event starting today is a virtual trunk show series. I've never had the pleasure of going to an actual trunk show, so getting to see a whole series of them is going to be a lot of fun!

These are all happening on Facebook, as 15 minute live videos, one every hour starting at noon EST. I'm having trouble even imagining how many beautiful quilts there will be! To get us started, here's the schedule for today. I'll be sharing each day's schedule on my FB page, so you can follow me there to be sure you don't miss any of the eye candy 😍
