I am still waiting for the fabric to arrive for the blended quilt project I am working on with my blogging friends Perry, Cindy, and Lisa. I ordered it Sunday and it is Friday already and it still has not arrived. Since I am completely obsessed with making a blended quilt NOW, fabric or […]
This is not the quilt pattern I have chosen for the Blended Quilt Challenge. Really. At least I don’t think so. But while I am waiting for the fabrics for my REAL project to arrive, look what I made with the auxillary back up fabrics? Isn’t it pretty? I love those calm blues. I […]
Lisa of Stashmaster and I both bought the fatquarter bundle called Roman Holiday by Moda. We emailed back and forth quite a bit, tossing out possible patterns that would be appropriate with this pretty, not too Christmassy fabric collection. One detail we decided was that since the collection was released as a Holiday group, the […]

Please join us as the four of us launch ourselves into a brand new project. This challenge charges us to make a Blended Quilt using one of the four following blended quilt books: Blended Quilts […]
The Fat Goose would be me of course. Where did these four new pounds come from I ask you? I have been working hard getting my holiday decorations out, and I am pretty sure I have missed at least a couple of meals. Go figure. I need to get a grip on it though, and […]
Even Ozzie has had enough. He has been following me from room to room all morning long, wondering what the heck I am doing with all these arm loads of fabric. He can’t figure it out, and I doubt if I could make him understand. Some of my blogging friends and I will be starting […]
Since Thanksgiving is over, I figured it was time to get out some Christmas decorations, including Christmas quilts of course. The quilt pictured above is one I got back from the quilter just before last Christmas. I put it out, but in all the holiday hub bub, didn’t get a chance to really study […]
I have met my goal to finish a project or two before permitting myself to get started on anything new. With Jelly Bellies, Cupcake and my Chocolate Sampler at the quilter’s, I am free to begin something fresh. In anticipation of this day, for a couple of months now, I have had the beautiful Roman […]
Ding Dong. Ding Dong. Well, it wasn’t the postman, it was the Fed Ex guy, but he did ring twice. When I went to the door, he was staggering under the weight of a gigantic and heavy cardboard box that said JJill on the sides. Hmmm, I don’t remember ordering anything from JJill, but hey, […]
Have a great weekend everyone! Hope yours is full of family, relaxation, good food, and happiness. Home is where my heart is these days. Here is Ozzie in a rare moment of quiet. He likes to cuddle on the couch wrapped up in my favorite bathrobe every morning.
