I’m Over It

Thank you so much, all of you kindred spirits out there!  Your words of encouragement mean the world to me.  I love you all.  I am better today, and not feeling quite so fragile.  My goodness, the blogging world sure is full of support and encouragement and love. Right now, this is what I need […]

Blended Challenge Finale

This Blended Quilt Challenge has just been the most fun.  In fact, I became a bit obsessed with the possibilities that were out there for making any number of exquisite quilts using the blended fabrics method.  I picked an easy one to begin with:  a medallion style quilt top.  With a medallion quilt, you begin […]

I Won a Blog Contest!

My goodness.  I just won something!  Dear Jane from  Sew It Create It had a blog giveaway going on and I made a comment on the required day.  Miraculously, my name was the winner!  You see above the lovely things she sent me, all the way from England.  A terrific tote all made out of […]

Hit the Ground Running

I think I mentioned a few posts ago that I have been invited to teach Miss Rosie quilt patterns at my favorite local quilt shop.  I had two quilts in mind for this spring calendar session, with the idea that I would teach one class in March and the second one in May.  I received […]

Drumroll Please

We have a winner!  Cindy of Too Much Fabric, Too Little Time has without a doubt the messiest work space I have ever seen.  She has PILES of things.  What a colossal mess.  Her hands must have been shaking with fear as she took this picture, because it is a teensy bit blurry. I had […]

I returned from […]

Rhinestone Cowgirl Princess

istockphoto Greetings from Nashville.  I didn’t think this whole country thing was quite my style, but I have to admit, it is growing on me.  Think Rockabilly, line dancing, ribs, big hair, cowboy hats, fringe and rhinestones.  Oh my, I can definitely say that it is fun, even if I won’t be adopting the rhinestones […]

A Little Bonus

Blended Quilt Color Options, Week Six

I am having a very happy time playing with ideas for blended quilts.  It has become a bit of an obsession, really.  And my Blended Challenge friends are a bit stalled out these past couple of weeks, so I hesitate to blather on about the subject of Blended Quilts, but I just can’t help myself.  […]
