Well, I did warn you that there wasn't going to be a lot of sewing going on this week! Here is a photo of one of my little Easter vignettes, on my kitchen counter. Easter seems so early this year, I am not quite ready for it mentally yet. I did get out my little […]
Not too much happening around here. I had a virus, which I am pretty much over–only a bit of a hacking cough and a big cold sore indicate that all was not well last week. I am scheduled to work both days this weekend, so any sewing that happens this week is going to […]
Ack, that is the thing with going on vacation. You come home with suitcases full of dirty clothes that need to be sorted, washed, dried, folded and put away. I had mountains of it to deal with and spent what seemed like 90% of my free time yesterday on laundry related tasks. One product […]
Oh dear. I believe I may have too many things going on just at the moment. What to work on? I have been trying to work on them all, and make a block or two each day or so. This can't keep up. I need to clear off the design walls, except for one project, […]
Happy President's Day to you all. My area had last Monday off in honor of the occasion, but on my calendar, it says President's Day is today. This little quilt is a Schnibbles pattern by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company, called Dulcinea. Fabric is by Minick and Simpson. All I need now is a cherry pie!
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!! Hope you get to spend some time with your sweeties. If not, treat yourself to something lovely. Have you got plans for Valentine's Day or President's Weekend? Our little town has a big event planned that brings in loads of tourists, so it's all hands on deck at the shop where […]
Here is my new little Kim DIehl mat on my coffee table. It is perfect for a pot of orchids, a candle, or a bowl of something. Loving it. What you can't see in the background is the Super Bowl going loud and strong. I had to work on Sunday, but got home just after […]
Just got the binding on this little quilt for Eva's room last week. I've had some requests to show more of it, so here you go. I made the quilt back in 2009–here is a link to my post on making it with all the pattern information. I absolutely loved making this quilt. […]
This has been the best holiday season ever. It was so wonderful to have the family together under one roof, and we had many many lovely moments that I will treasure throughout the upcoming year and beyond. My son left to return to Ireland on New Year's Eve day. Wonder how the folks on board […]
Checking in with greetings of the season, and my best wishes that you are having as much fun as I am! This may be one of our best Christmases ever, with both of my children under one roof, and my little grand daughter full of excitement and anticipation. Santa will be coming for sure, and […]
