What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. Yes, it's true I said I'd be posting later today if I posted at all. And so if you thought you were going to be able to drink your coffee in peace this morning, you'll be disappointed. Here I am flapping my lips again. There was an early start to my morning, and so I find myself with time to spare.

Since I knew I'd be leaving early this morning, I did this morning's slow-stitching yesterday evening while we watched the news. And so I have two Tiny Treasures to show ...

Good morning, my friends. It isn't often I go a day without sewing, but yesterday was one of those days. Of course, there's almost always time for slow-stitching, and so it isn't exactly true that there was no sewing at all. This is Tiny Treasure #42. It has fan stitch, lazy daisy, stem stitch, French knots and satin stitch.

Good morning, my friends, and a fine morning it is! The sun is shining, and it's still warm from yesterday's nice weather. It's going to cool off a little bit by tomorrow, but then we're looking at warmer weather for the remainder of the week. Is it possible that spring has sprung? I sure hope so.

There was no negotiating about getting in some exercise yesterday. I forced myself onto the treadmill, and I felt better for it. There's no way to know for sure if it gave me more energy for the remainder of ...

Good morning, my friends, and Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

Good morning, my friends, and Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

Good morning, my friends. We're pretty happy about our weekend weather...although the weekend has nothing to do with it when you're retired. Every day is Saturday. In any case, we're gearing up for the warmest weather so far this year...into the 70's today and tomorrow. Hopefully, we'll be able to eat outside for the first time.

Yesterday was another busy day, and it ended with a wonderful family dinner. Before I did anything else, I spent a little time on my slow stitching. This is Tiny Treasure #38. It has stem stitch, backstitch ...

Good morning, my friends. Our weather seems to have taken a turn for the better. We were expecting rain all this week. Yesterday turned into a pretty nice day, and it's even nicer today. It makes me happy since we're getting together with the fam. It's always nicer when we're not confined to the house. The temperatures this weekend are supposed to reach into the 70's. That's what I'm talkin' about! If our dreams come true, we'll be able to eat outside on Sunday for the first time this year.

Good morning, my friends. Beware. Pranksters will be out tomorrow. It's never to soon to make plans for defending yourself. We have a trip to the grocery store planned. Do you think we can April Fools Day our way into some free groceries? I'm thinking you do your debit card, then reverse the charges, and yell, "April Fools!" Yeah...probably not, but it has me thinking.

So yesterday I made good on my threat to get outside and clean up the culinary herb garden. There was an alarming amount of grass growing in some places. Grass can't ...

Good morning, my friends. The day started out with a bang yesterday...or, more accurately, a poke. We were out bright and early so I could get a fasting blood draw. Sometimes I'm a hard stick, and so it always provokes a little anxiety. Yesterday...one stick, and I barely felt it. Yahoo! It was a good way to start the day. 

We'd planned breakfast at a local Black Bear Diner, but it was really, really cold inside the restaurant when we arrived. We were informed their heater was broken, and they were working on getting it fixed ...

Good morning, my friends. I'm writing fast again this morning. We have an early start today because I need a fasting blood draw. Mike is going with me. We'll get breakfast afterward, and then do our grocery shopping. Breakfast will be nice, but the rest of the morning sounds pretty forbidding, doesn't it?

Many miles were covered since our last chat. I got my hair cut and colored. Yay! I feel so much better. After that, I bought some new shoes and retired the previous pair. Also, I picked up some peanuts for the birds and some ...

Good morning, my friends. I'm writing fast this morning. In a little while, I'm heading out to get a badly-needed haircut and to run some errands in town. I'm happy to start today's post announcing the Fantastic Felines are finished. This quilt will be donated to an organization known as Leave It for the Pooch, and it will be included in a fund-raising auction sometime in June.

Wanna know how much kitty help was offered?

Yeah…the whole notion of ...
