Edit: OK .. the word is posy and it means flower.
I’m not going to do a quilt in May or June because (1) I’m not seeing a lot of finished quilts from April so I don’t want to start another one in May til you all catch up and (2) I’m going to be [...]

Paducah Report #2
April 29th, 2007 · 11 Comments
After the first night in the hotel, things were calm and uneventful. We had nice quilters staying all around us and we talked to them at night.
The quilts in the show were outstanding, as usual. I’m always amazed at the amount of talent and work that goes into those quilts. I cannot [...]

This is not a scientific poll but over on the right side, you’ll see another little poll. I love these things!
If you were going to buy a sewing machine today — doesn’t matter if you want it just for making 1/4″ seams or if you want it for machine quilting or a fancy smancy [...]

Thankful for so much!

We had such a grand time in Paducah. My friend, Becky, is from Owensboro and she’s one of the few people that I truly felt was my friend during the almost 10 years we lived there. It wasn’t necessarily because the people there didn’t accept outsiders, although that’s the reason I gave myself [...]

There will probably be several Paducah reports but I got home a few hours ago, got the car unloaded, dinner cooked and served, ran into the basement for a tornado threat and . . here I am . . in my usual position at the computer.
Monday morning I drove to Springfield, MO and picked up [...]

Which Design?

This is a simple quilt but two versions . . made with the exact same blocks but they’re just turned differently. While I’m off to Paducah next week, will you vote and let me know which one you like best?
Thanks!

Living by Example
April 20th, 2007 · 8 Comments
I read too many blogs and sometimes I follow a link from one person’s blog to another person’s block and then . . well, you know what happens — I don’t even know how I got to the blog where I ended up but I was reading A Deputy’s Wife’s blog the other day and [...]

Not Another Hobby

The local quilt shop has a class once or twice a month for making cards. I think it’s more of a “get together” than a class. All supplies are furnished, we pay $10 per class and we make 10 cards - 2 of 5 different cards. These are the cards [...]

Goodbye Eggs!

I save everything! As I unpack, I continue to find funny little things that I stuck in a drawer, or in a box. This incident wasn’t so funny when it happened but it’s funny now. It was probably 4 years ago . . Chad would have been about 15. He wanted [...]
