She’s standing up on her own for little bits at a time (looking totally adorable trying to gain her balance). She loves music and loves to dance. She can […]

Thank you to everyone who entered our little conversation on intellectual property. I think that there were actually quite a number of different points of view on this…clearing up nothing but continuing an ever-growing discussion of honesty really.

Well, in a feat worthy of the great quilters (whoever they might be! LOL), I made my mug rug yesterday. Yup…started, continued, and then finished! Woohoo! I’m usually one of the first to be done with this kind of thing, but I’ve been swamped recently and couldn’t get to it until now. But we’re leaving
Well I’ve been working on a number of sewing projects and have at least my bee blocks to show you…and a sneak peak at my pillow. I’m not going to tell you about the things that I don’t have finished yet with upcoming deadlines… First off, I finished Ulrike’s blocks for Bee Modern Too. She
I’m pretty sure that we were celebrating Christmas when our quilt guild got together this past Friday. You would think I would know, but I guess I’m just thrown off by the earliness of the celebration. LOL. But we did exchange some Christmas fat quarters…well some of us exchanged Christmas fabric. A lot of us

I posted a question in the Mug Rug Group asking whether I should make a “story” mug rug that would probably not be super practical…or a quilted one that would be. I could see my secret partner liking either. It seemed that the people who knew me who answered all said hands down that I
