Did you all have a nice weekend? Hope so! The weather was spring like here, and we all gathered at my Dad's house for Easter Brunch. Gosh what a fun event that is. Everybody shares their signature brunch dish and we eat like kings. My nephew (whose wife is expecting the baby) made the salad […]
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 […]
I am on such a donation kick. I can't tell you how good it makes me feel to give away these quilts that otherwise wouldn't be enjoyed by anyone. Giving a quilt to a child who is ill or a senior who has Alzheimer's can bring a breath of joy into a life that is […]
Sara is doing a happy dance, now that I have the borders on her Log Cabin quilt. This quilt is going out for quilting this week, and will be a nice addition to her bedroom decor in her new house. Gosh, I had so much fun with all of you, voting on which log cabin […]
I am feeling so good about donating some of my unquilted tops to various charitable organizations! Here is one I called "Inner Cowgirl" that I sent off last week. I still think it is kind of cute, just not for me. Here is another cheery one that hopefully, someone will like. I believe this was […]
Thanks for all the encouraging comments regarding my gigantic stack of unquilted tops. You are so right, I definitely enjoyed picking out the fabrics and piecing those quilts. Most of them anyway. I am going to start sending the ones that deserve it out to be quilted and give them to my loved ones. As […]
My fun little exercise of going back four years on my blog to see what I was working on then, and where it is now provided a huge eyeopening shock to me. In the photo above, you see hanging various unquilted tops (called flimsies by some). These hanging tops were mostly made in 2015 and […]
I thought it would be fun to go back four years and see what I was working on and share it with you. Since my sewing progress has been pretty much nil lately, this will be a way to at least share some content with you. Let's check out what I was working on then […]
I just love these soft spring colors in the 3 Sisters Larkspur collection. I have not bought any 3 Sisters fabric for a couple of years, as I was feeling I had pretty much done them to death. However, when I saw how pretty this quilt pattern by Miss Rosies' Quilt Company was I was […]
