"Ozzie! Listen! Slow down a sec! Do you like to play? Do you like to play with other doggies? I thought so! Well, guess what sweetie? Your sister Harmony is going to come and live with us! She will be your new friend, who will be here with you all the time when I […]
The shock of receiving half of what I was expecting in my first paycheck has gotten me thinking. How am I going to pay these darn bills? I do not want any calls from Bob in India, my Nemesis. He is such a doggone pest. So aside from going into more debt in order to […]
Remember this pattern? I started to make it back in April with a collection called In The Pink 1 designed by Buggy Barn for Henry Glass. My colors are all pinks and browns. I set the project aside because I was not happy with the lack of contrast in my blocks. I believe the point of this block […]
Didn't have a lot of time to sew this weekend, but I did manage to get into the stash closet and fondle some of my fabric. I rediscovered this yummy collection that I bought back in April when Lisa was out for a visit. The fabric is Fresh Air by Chez Moi for Moda. Very […]

I received so many encouraging comments from you dear friends out there regarding my new schedule and how I will soon get used to it. Thank you ever so much for your patience with me last week, and know that I am working on a solution to getting back to normal. Without resigning from my […]
Hello Friends. Thank you for all your good wishes to me on the occasion of my first week at my new job. And also, thank you for your patience with my lack of blogging. I am getting into my new routine, and will carve out niches for both quilting and blogging on a regular basis. […]
Hi there. I am still alive, but barely. Yesterday was my first day at my new job, and it took the starch right out of me. I have to get used to getting up at 6:00 AM, a habit I have lapsed out of. Learning so many new things makes my brain ache, and when […]
