Wow, have these 2 quilt tops been waiting to be quilted for a few years or what?
Remember the “Best Friends” panel? The cutest old quilting ladies.
The panel is surrounded with bricks and 4 patches from a fat quarter pack from the same line. Backing is from the same line that I found at our local quilt shop in the sale [...]

It’s been almost a month since my last post. SHAME ON ME! Life just gets so darn busy. I worked on my taxes all weekend. Every year I think I’m going to “keep up” rather than “catch up”. Silly me.
I have gotten three of my own quilts quilted! Remember, way back when, I said I was going to finish [...]

A new hobby. Yes, you heard me right. I can hardly believe I’m admitting to it. Not after the “let’s get rid of all this stuff” mood I’ve been in. What was the word I used? Simplify?
OMG, but this is so fun! Are you ready? Notice my new blog header? I made it myself! After my [...]

Of quilt tops I have accumulated over the years. I just love the thrill of the hunt! And it’s caught up with me. I am going to part with a few. It’s tough to decide which ones to keep. I love them all. Lord knows, if I haven’t gotten to them after all this time [...]

I’ve been busy quilting up a “snow storm”. Lord knows I can’t go outside in this weather. Did you see the Packer game yesterday? Silly-silly boys. Not knowing when to come in out of the cold!!

I just finished this “Fun with Dick and Jane” quilt for our new grandson,Landen, arriving in February. His Mom is a first grade teacher so I thought it was fitting. Not, of course, that she will remember the Dick and Jane readers. So I bought six books to get her started. And the matching tote! It is [...]

And another chance for us to get it right”. Oprah.
This past Christmas felt strange. I was really in the Christmas spirit and could hardly wait to decorate and start my holiday baking. Then as the weeks went by, I was ready for it to be over. It seemed to drag on and on. I think, and many of [...]

Our Thanksgiving Day was quiet. I put the turkey in the oven early, Mike helped with the stuffing and potatoes. The rolls were rising. We were drinking coffee and leisurely going thru the “Black Friday” ads in the newspaper. I had Christmas carols playing. There was snow.
I get a bright idea…… Let’s decorate!
I have a million [...]
