Well, it looks like spring - or at least pre-spring - has arrived in Calgary. Yup, it's actually warmer than 0 celsius out and is supposed to remain that way all week. Yippee! Of course with the warmer weather comes lots of slush as we've still got tons of snow to melt, but I'm not complaining - I'll take that sunshine and warm temperatures any day. I've been busily working on a few projects which I've finally finished up this week-end so I'll be able to get outside and enjoy those sunny days this upcoming week.
You're probably wondering what I've been working on. Well, I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I've been working on a pattern which will be published in the summer edition of Quilter's Connection Magazine. I'm so excited, but also nervous, since this is my first magazine submission! I've previously had a pattern in their newsletter, but this is the big time - in the magazine! I'm especially proud to have my first pattern published in a Canadian magazine. I've just got to mail the sample off to the magazine for photography and will be doing this in the new few days. Then it'll be a few months' wait until I get to see it in print. I can only give you a small idea of what it is - you'll have to wait until the magazine is published to see the entire project.
So that's what I've been up to. How's your week been?

Glad to meet a blogger who is a fellow Albertan! I am with you on the warmer weather but this howling wind could quit any time! I have been busy making aprons and quilts and just finished long arm quilting a beautiful log cabin quilt that our guild made for the STARS Auction upcoming in Taber on April 2nd.
Glad to meet you too, Maggie! Good luck on the upcoming auction - I hope that the quilt makes lots of $$$ for STARS.
