read moreSo, this is a post about Quiet Time. As you can tell from this photo, there's lots of resting and quiet time going on here. This was taken at my parents' home in New Hampshire last week. It was Augie's first road trip and he did extremely well in the car; you would have thought that he was a seasoned road-tripper! He rested nicely on his back seat platform and did what he was supposed to do

read moreMy second new quilt start happened this week with yet another block-of-the-month class. This one is based on a pattern called "Cream and Sugar" by It's Sew Emma. I've decided to adopt the lower-contrast neutral palette as illustrated; I think it will be pretty and a nice way for me to experiment with value, it will be fun. One of the class participants expressed that she thought beige quilts were

read moreHello Everyone,
I still have a lot of pictures to show from the Badlands Quilters Retreat in Medora, ND. Today I'm showing pictures from my 2-day Country Sampler class.
This is especially helpful when you want to change sashings and borders or make a row-by-row quilt or when you are working on a round robin quilt.
The class made all of the same components yet look how different the ...

I'm home! We left Winnemucca, NV fairly early and headed for home in Arnold, CA. We stopped in Gardnerville, NV to have lunch with a friend that Gail hasn't seen in 55 years. Then the car headed over Ebbetts Pass on autopilot. The eastern side of the Sierras are so beautiful in Gardnerville.
Hello Everyone,
We got a very early rocky start to our day. Both Gail and I were craving our foo foo vanilla lattes at Starbucks. We were thrilled to find a Starbucks in Rock Springs, WY. Gail was driving so she pulled up to the window, ordered, paid, and then drove away! Hey Gail, what about our lattes? After an extended laughter, we headed through some very interesting landforms in Wyoming while sipping our lattes.
Hello Everyone,
We started our day at the Crazy Horse Memorial which is very close to Mount Rushmore.
Hello Everyone,
We saw our first bison yesterday about 1 mile into Theodore Roosevelt National Park. What a handsome animal.
The entrance to the park is only a half mile from the retreat center.
This is a quilt back!
This is the front of the quilt.
Hello Everyone,
Today was the first day of the Badlands Quilters Retreat. It was a balmy 24 degrees this morning when we left the hotel for breakfast.
Hello Everyone,
We started out the day drinking 'Mountain Mud' coffee in Billings, MT and ended the day eating Walleye in Medora, ND. We quickly drove out of the mountains in Montana and entered the rolling plains and grasslands in eastern Montana. We were sprinkled on just a bit, maybe we were being baptized in the plains.
Hello Everyone,
Here we are, Lynn and Gail ready to set out on our road trip to North Dakota. Or as Gail says, our Toad Trip. She was texting her neighbor and that's what came up. Darn spellcheck!
Hello Everyone,
This is my play list for the week of 10/3 - 10/9:
On The Road Again - Willie Nelson
Life is a Highway - Tom Cochrane
I Can't Drive 55 - Sammy Hagar
King of the Road - Roger Miller
My sister Gail and I are heading out Monday morning at o-dark-hundred to start our road trip to the Badlands Quilters Guild in Medora, ND. We are taking all of you with us on our journey! I will try to post pictures of the scenery along the way.
I selected 20 quilts to take for my trunk show Saturday night ...
read moreWe have had a lot going on lately and unfortunately our needles have been rather still, much to our dismay. Between road trips, health, and family, we have had to take a little hiatus from the blog and social media. Our needles will be busy soon, but in the meantime we will share a few pictures from the aforementioned road trip. It was to Paducah, Kentucky for the AQS quilt show and it was wonderful!
Please enjoy!
