Have you ever seen a movie that literally changed your life? Think about this for a bit. Really think about it. Then blog or email me about it! I would love to know what meant something to you. I found this such a compelling topic for thought, that I have challenged my husband and son […]
I know I was just talking about Flying Geese blocks in my post yesterday, but these geese are for a different project. I had two half days to sew over the weekend, and divided my time between two UFOs that have been calling out to me. I know, Prairie Paisley was crying out plaintively for […]
Months ago (never mind how many…) I started a making a quilt that I had been planning in my mind for a year or more. I knew the pattern I would use would be Toulouse, a wonderful offering by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. Carrie made her quilt in a Christmas fabric collection that was current […]

While we were snoozing, some fiend entered the premises and murdered another one of my orange shoes. Here is one of the crime scene photos. The Coroner reports that this […]
My intent this weekend was to work on my Prairie Paisley Challenge that Lisa and I have going on. She probably has her top to the quilters already at the rate I am going. I just couldn't buckle down to that project until I got the borders on two quilts that are a-l-m-o-s-t done. That […]
I thought I would take you on a little tour around my messy house to see my book collection. When I have mentioned that I LOVE books, I was not exaggerating. One of the main reasons that we bought this house was because of all the built in book cases. Here is the library. I […]
There has been a tag going around where folks are challenged to take just 15 minutes to list 15 favorite books they have read and loved. Now, I love reading as much as I love quilting, and have been doing for a lot longer. In love challenges like this, so I decided to give myself […]
