I'm not dead!

Hi all, just wanted to let you know that I have not fallen off the face of the earth (or died). May has been a crazy month in the Candy Coated household. We have worked a craft show for our other hobby, Dartmouth Clothing. We have taken a 2-day motorcycle course and now have our beginner's licenses although no motorcycle yet. And we took a trip to Ottawa to visit my Dad and his wife. ALSO IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY!!!

Phew! I'm excited to relax and get down to work on Secret Quilt #2. It's killing me to have to keep this a secret but its receiver may read this and I want it to be a surprise. I've mentioned that it's in the same style as Sheldon so that narrows it down a bit. I've taken my own advice and am using the metered fusible interfacing which is MUCH faster. My only complaint is that the grid lines are very light yellow and are hard to see. I imagine this is so that they don't show through the finished product but it's very annoying!

In conclusion: I am not dead and I hope to have something interesting to show you soon. Excite Bike is not finished yet so maybe I'll do that just to have something interesting to say.
