Quick update on my progress with the flying geese–it's going well. All geese are made, and only 28 more need to be trimmed. Hopefully today I can get my little Dutchman's Puzzle blocks together. What a fun project this is: Whit, a Little Bites pattern by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. And just for fun….Look what […]
I am doing a different kind of post today and hope you might enjoy it. From time to time I like to do a post on beauty, fashion or decorating, and some of you have told me you think it's fun. If that isn't your cup of tea, I am giving you fair warning to […]
I am up to my eyeballs in geese. Flying Geese that is. I have eight more to make and I will be finished with construction, but as you see, my little pile needs to be trimmed. Ha! I am tempted to take them to work with me today, along with my tiny cutting mat and […]
Just look at that beautiful quilting! It was done by Mary Flynn of Quilt Hollow. She is just the best,and I could not be happier. In fact, I love it so much I am using a cropped photo of it as my summer blog banner. The pattern is called Paganini by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company. […]

The quilt measures about 22 1/2" square. I am probably sewing the binding on it as you read this! I […]
I've been working this week and don't have a current sewing related project to share, so I thought I would go back in time to May 2010 and share what was going on then. Above, you see one of my all time favorite photos of Ozzie. I can say that he is slightly less pesky […]
How cute is this fabric line and pattern? It all went together pretty quickly, but as you can see, I still need to sew the blocks together. Pattern is a Little Bites by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company, and the fabric is High Street by Lily Ashbury. I totally copied one of the versions of the […]
Champagne and a dancing child. It doesn't get much better than this! My weekend was lovely, and I sure hope yours was as well. We had such a nice celebration on Saturday. Several readers have inquired as to the nature of the happy occasion. Irish wedding bells? No, not that. My sister had been laid […]
I just could not help myself. With all the new Miss Rosie Little Bites patterns just released and the pile up of newly ordered charm packs coming to the door, I just had to start a new project. The pattern I am using is Trace and the fabric collection is High Street by Lily Ashbury […]
