Let's sleep on it from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

You've heard the expression before - sleep on it. Well, that seems to be working like a charm for me.

I have a quilt top that's on my list to get completed this year. Can I find the darn quilt top? Nope - I have the pattern and the container with all the extra fabric, but no quilt top. I know I had the top after everything got moved back in, but where did I put it? I searched and searched and nothing.

Then yesterday morning, I woke up and knew exactly where the quilt top was. I ran downstairs ...

How to move a mountain - one box at a time from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

There are some days when I sit down to write about what happened the day before and a total blank! Thank goodness for pictures! I actually spent a good part of the day figuring out some new technology which I'll share with you tomorrow.

Once the technology stuff was sorted, I was hefting boxes in Studio B - determined to clear some space. Here's what happened.

One of the things that I'm really trying to get coordinated is to put similar things together. I don't care if they are upstairs or downstairs or wherever, as long as ...

Trying new things from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

One must always be open to trying new things. I know that I'm guilty of doing things the same old way. Or we sit in the same spot at the table, on the train, we drive to work on the same road. Nothing wrong with it - it frees up our brains to think of other things. But it's also nice to shock the brain into trying new things!

So you all know that I've been doing a lot of quilts for magazines over the last couple of years. That means working with the fabric companies and I ...

Moving a mountain from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

I know I promised more Ultimate Blocks today - but you're getting a Studio B update instead. I'll get back to the Ultimate Blocks tomorrow.

I swear that there's never a dull day in my life. Between the girls, the fish in the pond, the Studios, the deadlines, and just life in general, there's always something crazy going on!

For the moment, that excitement is the basement. I swear I feel like an archeologist and I'm on a major dig. Not sure what I'm looking for, but let's get this dig site tidied up ...

North Stars - Neville the Narwhal from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

I'm not sure why this happens, but I could use a good admin assistant to help schedule things. Can you tell me why I would book a class on Friday night of a long weekend?? Well, two people signed up so we had a class. It was all about free motion quilting. I'm going to toot my own horn here a wee bit, but if you've never taken a free motion quilting class with me - you're missing out! Big time. I do a mean free motion quilting class and we have loads of fun. Free motion ...
