Hello Everyone,
I just received the official 'go ahead and release' the image of my next Block of the Month for Marcus Fabrics. Here is Yuletide Memories in all her glory.....all 94" x 94" of her.
I have purchased this pattern from Primrose Cottage here. Had I looked at the other options, I could have bought the cheaper table runner pattern instead. Never mind, I'm ready to stash dive into my blues, greens and teals to cut this out tomorrow. I will probably start with ...
read moreWell, I have decided to set up my own website. I haven't started yet but after Etsy removed my America 250 Sampler pattern claiming I violated an Intellectual Property law based on a "supposed" complaint from the official government America 250 Committee, I have reached my breaking point with them.
If I want to fight this, I have to contact the Committee. Ya, wish me luck on that one! I'm not allowed to discuss it in the Etsy Forums (not that I ever hang out there) or they'll disable my shop, and still up for consideration is ... read moreThere are sew many creative and cute ways to finish a cross stitch, and today we are breaking down the steps for this cute ruched finish that Denise shared in the FlossTube Livestream on September 16th, 2026.

read moreGood morning, my friends. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed our time here in Winthrop, but we’ll be moving on today. It’s another short day of driving to Bridgeport, Washington. We have three nights there and, honestly, I can’t remember why I included it in the trip. We have no real plans for the area, however, I did read about a mile-long path of chainsaw sculptures. Sounds entertaining. Possibly, I just gave us a few days to relax. In any case…that’s next on our itinerary.
Before we headed out on our little walking tour yesterday morning, I ...

Work in progress
Working on improvisational piecing helps me destress. The process is the focus - making small decisions - color, shape, size, and setting - keeps me in the moment. The destination will reveal itself.
For background, I used a white fabric I purchased several years ago from Mook Fabrics in Pennsylvania when Mari and I went to the Lancaster Quilt Show.
Working with scraps from a long time ago, I pieced triangle leftovers with ...
read moreWWL is a place where you can share photos of quilts you’re working on and get encouragement to finish them from our Wednesday Wait Loss group! As you can see, I’ve been doing this for years and so our group is strong, loves to share, and is very welcoming.
Here’s how it works. Every week I start out by sharing what I’ve been working on. Then I share the projects from the previous week that most inspired me so that they will inspire you too! This is followed by the actual link up where you can ...
read moreSince September felt like August, it's surprising to realize it's October. Third quarter is over and we've started fourth quarter. Just three months left in the year! I'm always amazed at how fast the last half of the year goes. It's definitely time to take a look at what my strategic plan for the sewing room was for 2026 and see how I'm doing on the execution part.
1. Guild BOM 2026
All the blocks are finished and all the sashing/border strips are cut, now it's just assembly time.
2. Wild and ...

I spent some time today getting my EPP cart cleaned and restocked ready for this! I make my EPP projects whilst watching TV so this little cart sits next to my armchair. I'll start making background hexies now so I'm ready to get heaps done in December.
Will you join the fun this Christmas?I was thinking of doing a bit of rulerwork on the next charity quilt, however when I opened the bundle up it was not what I thought it was. In fact it had whole rows of embroidery on there and no four or nine patch blocks (which it looked like when I first looked at the bundle). As a matter of fact, I am going to take this bundle back to the group as there are a number of problems...the 3 rows of very detailed embroidery is still attached to its stabilizer and sewn to the next pieced section ...
read moreHow is it already Wednesday again? Today I have a DAR meeting in the morning and a Quilt of Valor zoom meeting in the afternoon. I hope to find a little sewing time today in between.
What a busy week so far!!!

Interesting—I didn't know you could use a digital wallet for boarding passes. I think I'll keep my life simple and just use the app. It just sometimes takes a minute to find it, plus I need it to request and check upgrades. But I agree—I will NOT use a digital wallet. We were out for dinner last night and guess what? It wouldn't work. Thank goodness I had a real card with me as backup!
I finished reading that Country Living article on quilting, and I found a few gems for you. This first one ...
