I started November at the ending of my second course, the topic were quilting techniques, I taught them different kinds of quilting in some little projects.
These are the last day pictures, everybody were looking for a place for the picture and meanwhile we all were having fun.
This exercise was the first test of one student, she tried free machine quilting, not so bad.
Everybody was very happy doing this project, sew as you go, easy and fun!
They are teachers that came from Huejutla, can you believed they travel all night long just to came to take this course?
This is one of my favorite pictures, there are not words, their faces speak by themselves...
I designed a patchwork for quilting all together, an activity called quilting bee.
But because they were so many (29 people) we had to do it in little groups. It was so special for this class.
At the end of the project I asked their to embroider their names in it, unfortunately not all can do that because of the time, but anyway they will be in my quilt forever.
When I got back home, I had so much to prepare because I will have another course three weeks later.
November 10 was my birthday No.45 and I celebrated giving classes and sharing a little cake with my students.
Tambien mi sobrina querida Jessica, me llevó a desayunar a un restaurant y bueno en mi casa hubo celebracion y regalos de mi familia.
Que más podría pedir a mis 45 años? Tengo amor, familia,amigos, salud, trabajo y patchwork!! Soy muy feliz!!
During the week end, I got and invitation from my father in law and his wife, they took us to a very nice restaurant and we had a very nice time!!
Also my dear niece Jessica took me to a restaurant for breakfast and at home I got some presents and celebration from my family.
What else I could ask for at my 45´s ? I got love, family, friends, health, work and patchwork!!
I am a very happy woman.
On November 25 I went back to Pachuca to give the last course called " Patchwork of the world"
it was very interesting because I taught 5 different techniques of the world and I enriched the course with music, videos some bread and candies.
I put a central table with a globe where we can see each country we were learning about, pictures and materials. Here is the table with spools of silk and the project of Korea.

Fue una larga jornada de 3 meses de trabajo y preparación, se que valio la pena!
At the end again everybody showing their works. The Egyptian technique stands out in the picture I chose the Horus eye for the project.
It was a long days journey of thee months of work and preparation but I am sure it was worth it!
Finally, on November 30th Deborah celebrated her birthday with us in a beautiful restaurant with a martini, just one! ha ha ha
It is funny since this moment my daughters are 21 years old during one month, until Marion´s birthday next January, she will be 22. Here is my husband very proud of their!!
