I am woman hear me roar!
I Am Woman Hear Me Roar Early on Monday morning of last week, my friend Janis and I set out for quilt market. We decided to drive this time because my booth had so much stuff and "what was 11 or so hours in the car?". Nothing. Not after the 18 hour trip we braved to Farm Chicks a couple years ...

Adventures in Interfacing ... and a give-away!
Years ago, when I first started making handbags, I tried every interfacing known to sewing-kind. I ended up throwing in the towel on regular sewing interfacing when I started getting the bags made by an industrial seamstress, and I won't even get into that. It involves rolls of fabrics and ...

Tinsel Trading
At this time last week I was lucky enough to be in New York City!! It was my first trip there and I'm hooked! I'm an urban girl - I love cities and the freedom I feel when I'm in them. There's a wonderful anonimity when you're in a crowded city and everyone is doing their own thing - there was s...

Gotta Have Friends
In the roughest of times, good friends will get you through. Frankly, I don't know what I would have done without them in getting ready for quilt market and trying to finish a book at the same time (which is crazy and I do not recommend doing these two things at one time). Here are some of th...

Mod-ing and Podging
I was not a kid who liked to play in the dirt. I don't like to get dirty, and I don't like to get sticky. But a girls gotta' do what a girl's gotta' do, so I pulled out the Mod Podge and Mod Podged me up a little storm. And then for good measure, I threw in some Fabri-tac and applique glue. P...

Celebration! A Give-Away For You.
I'm so over the moon today. Went to Quilter's Inn to visit Full Bloom in an actual store. Got a phone call from a store that says it's flying off the shelf. And came home to my very own 22 bolts of Full Bloom. You all have been so incredibly supportive, I can't thank you all enough! So, let'...
my heart goes out to the kids! my mind is full of the stories you have shared with me about john's family. sending prayers and hugs!

Sometimes...
things happen that don't appear to make any sense at all. I was on the phone with my husband yesterday late morning when his admin came in to tell him that his sister was calling with a family emergency. We hung up and he called me back with the news that his mom's husband, Dave (they've been ma...
congrats - you are on a roll!
