It’s a quiet early Sunday morning and I’m sitting in the executive  club at Chicago airport watching the planes refuel amidst a white cloud of snow, ice and steam. The sun has just risen and the air  tipped pink for just a short time but now all is white and grey, beautiful in the extreme if I don’t have to go out in it.
I probably could have had another hours sleep, but I was uncertain of the drive here and the lines at the airport.
A luck has it the snow had melted on the road and all was dark, bare and silent at we traveled in with no restrictions. Â The only life seemed to be people getting out of cars at the airport. The whistles of the traffic guards and sounding horns, and lots of steam.
I was whisked through all the processes of checking in and security with alarming speed and now I’m struggling to stay awake.

The event over the past few days was a remarkable success. Participants attended from all over the USA Â and it’s the beginning of many events such as this.
The students attended four classes using  Janome super machines as their tools of trade, 2 dinners, a movie with hot chocolate and special Chicago popcorn, Quilt Bingo and each guest room was a suite. 3 days of  luxury, leisure and quilting, in the middle of winter, what more could you ask for. Now I have 3 days to relax in the sun and work on my book and future projects.
I have video to edit, film to take a little book writing and illustrating.Â
My friend Carolyn who is the  captor of creativity for me, send me this lovely video today, and I thought I would share it because you all love fabric.Â
I love the way they capture the hands and faces.
