Organizing Fabric
I spent part of the day organizing my fabric and it was just what I needed to end my weekend. I realized that I have some fabric that I may simply never use because my taste has changed in the past two years and I probably need to sell it. I also realized that I… Read more

The February Blues
February just seems to drag on and on, doesn't it? I know I just posted about it earlier this week but the days just seem to be in slow motion this year. March at least brings the promise of melting snow and 40 degrees for this part of the country. Right now, we are still getting… Read more

Postage Stamp Quilt
I have two quilts in the works so what's one more, right? I posted 6 weeks ago about joining a Quilt Along for a postage stamp quilt but the fabrics I chose just weren't right for me. So, I put it off until I could make up my mind. I was going to use the… Read more

Staying busy
I took this photo yesterday afternoon. It's taken from my backyard looking up the hill towards the front yard. And it is such a depressing image. Not because it's a lot of snow. It's not a lot of snow at all. Just two weeks ago, the snow was up to the middle rail of the fence. But,… Read more

If you’re interested in learning… Read more

A Justin Report
I have to admit that I left the movie with more than a little respect for this 16-year-old Canadian kid. He seems to be headed in the right direction. And these girls left the movie more than a little in love. 🙂 Read more

Warning: Weekend Ahead
This is about how I feel. So tired that I could fall asleep before my head even hits the floor. Thank goodness the weekend is now here! The only thing I have on my agenda that is not fun is taking 4 young squealing girls to the Justin Bieber movie. We're going this morning in hopes… Read more

Stolen moments
I've moved my sewing room around a bit and can now leave everything out all the time. And I can't believe the difference it has made. I run into the sewing room once or twice a day and just sew for 20 – 30 minutes and I'm getting so much more done. I'm waiting for… Read more
