When I went into the shop to work on Friday, Melisa told me she'd received an order for my latest table runner pattern that was in May's issue of McCall's Quick Quilts.

Well, at least it's a better picture. You've been busy updating since your last one that I looked at. You never cease to amaze even me. I wish I had time to do as much as you do????
Once again, I am so proud of you and glad for your success. Every time you have made one of these, I have thought it was the cutest one yet, apparently McCall's agreeds!
