The following books are ones I enjoyed, but maybe are not the literary quality of the ones from yesterday's post. Lisa Gardner is a prolific author, whose books I am currently obsessing over. I started with her Detective D.D. Warren series and have read the following, one after the other: Alone, Hide, The Neighbor, Live […]
I've read some really good books since the beginning of the year, and thought I would share my favorites with you. The books listed below were my absolute favorites. I joined the Book of the Month Club in February, and have been enjoying it so much. These days, you pre-pay for your year's membership (they […]
This will be a longer post than usual. As you know, I am an avid reader and love to share some of the books I have enjoyed from time to time. If you are interested in hearing about some good books, grab yourself a cup of coffee and make yourself comfy for awhile! Girl Underwater […]
When I was trying to select a category for the post I was in a quandary. "Books"? "Blocks"? "Tools"? The little fan of wonderfulness above is all of those things. The pages are laminated and double sided, and contain instructions for making 102 rotary cut quilt blocks in 5 different sizes, from 3" on up. […]
I ordered a couple of things from the Fatquartershop and when I took them out of the box I was so excited I took a couple of pictures to share with you. First up are refills for the Sewline glue pen I was telling you all about. Great for appliqué. Next is the Farmer's […]
I read a lot, probably more than the average person. When I do my recaps of what I have been reading, I usually get positive comments, so I thought I would share with you what I have read since Christmas. First I will tell you about the books I liked and finished and finish up […]
I saw my sister T this past weekend. We are a bit of a bad influence on one another, I have to say. If I have something new, she wants it and if she has something new, I think I need to have it too. One of her new acquisitions is the cookbook you see […]
One great thing about vacations is that they usually supply a good amount of time for reading. My ideal vacations do anyway. I have a very busy life right now, between caring for a frail 92 year old man, a 2 year old toddler, a part time job, and keeping up a 3600 square foot […]
Well, no, it isn't finished, but I am making great progress on attaching the lattice on my Hill Country Baskets blocks. A reader commented on my last post that she could not see that fussy cutting the striped fabric for the lattice was worth all the trouble, but I could not disagree more. What would […]
Since I haven't been doing much on the sewing front, I thought I would share a book recommendation with you today. This is one of the best books I have read in some time, and I have read some good ones this year. This is a book that has stayed with me long after I […]
