It was a beautiful day for looking at art today (…and what day WOULDN”T be a beautiful day for looking at art???) so we jumped into the car and headed to the artist’s reception at 12 x 16 Gallery. The show there this month is by a collaborative group called “13 Hats”(…but really there are […]

A swirl of a day…
Posting on blogs late at night is probably like writing emails when you’re mad…it shouldn’t be done…tired, all the events of the day swirling…too tired to edit… caught in a maelstrom of stitches… roaring off to bed…
BE MINE!
Hey readers…here’s a recent perfect Valentine’s coffee…wish I was sitting across from you sipping the beautiful brew…(I raise my cup)… …but instead I’m doing stuff like this: using Borax and a “color remover thingie” (Mary’s technical term) to get out the red bleed on the recovery quilt, registering my lost baby quilt (thanks to Bill […]

Getting Ready …
I was making my Thanksgiving grocery lists this morning and R had a “Martha Stewart moment”…”Why not put lights on the volunteer cedar outside the bedroom window?” We were going to cut it down and put it on the deck, BUT…really… why not??? I already had the lights… but it DID involve ladders… He was […]
