Latifah Saafir !! one of "my nine"....

Hand Maker giveaway

Latifah Saafir Studio post is here....

okay.

maybe you've already heard this story

but I want to tell it again

Latifah tells it best, so I will try to do it justice

Latifah and Natalie

have been getting to know each other at the quilt shows

always with a smile, a hug, a "how you doing"

and one day

Natalie

says

"I'm looking for a roommate for Houston Market and Festival

do you know anyone?"

and Latifah answers,

"I might...."

little does Natalie know, it is Latifah!!!!

This is where Latifah usually inserts into the story,

"Well.  You know......

it could have either gone really well, or incredibly bad....."

and then she pauses.

Then she smiles.  THAT smile.

and then she lets me off the hook by saying

".....and it went incredibly......well."

fast forward past the slumber party style late nite talks

and the family gumbo recipe share moments

to fabric

well, of COURSE

I was going to ask her to be one of my nine.

and she said yes.

and because she is who she is

she hand delivers not one

but two

quilts to me

"I'm just not pleased with how this one came out

so I finished this other one."

thank you

Latifah

for being one of my nine

as you have heard from others on the tour,

it wouldn't be a blog tour without some info about

the fabric
