Fabric and the start of Lent

Were I to say that quilters love fabric, you'd be right to reply "duh!"
Which means you would enjoy, as I have, Corey Amaro's photos of the carnival in Venice on her blog titled Tongue In Cheek.  Google & take a look--imagine working with those fabrics!  certainly not "keep warm" New England bed quilt fabric. 

Currently watching

 Downton Abbey -- Very much like Upstairs/Downstairs.  Love the setting, the time period and the characters as well as the plot.  The last time DH & I were in London something was being filmed on a corner near our hotel.  We were told it was for a BBC series -- wonder if this is it?  The characters were wearing costumes of this era.

My other "must watch program", other than the nightly "fix" of Jeopardy, is Blue Bloods.  I adore Tom Seleck, and all the family crew members are great.  

Now we just need a mystery that features a cat and a quilter as the stars.  Or even a group of senior citizens such as those in "Bingoed" and "Papoosed" written by Patricia Rockwell.
