Janet, I am pretty sure I will need notes too... no lists though. Happy New Year my friend.
Happy 2014!
January 1st is resolution day! In the past I have made some outrageous and unattainable lists of goals/resolutions, but I'm over that system - it hasn't been effective for me. This year I am going about the "life plan" in an easier more achievable method - no lists! I feel free just typing th...

May MFGT Meeting
Hi! Group therapy this week was pretty great. Before I get into all the greatness, I want to mention that it's not late to join modern fabric group therapy - anyone is welcome to join at anytime. I have received a few emails about this and wanted to clarify... Meetings are the 2nd Wednesday of...
She is a treasure, but then again, so are you Kelly. Miss seeing you.
May Flowers
Spring in North Carolina is pretty glorious. I visited family and friends in Wisconsin and Minnesota over the last 2 weeks and the weather contrast was very drastic. Cold, snowy, rainy... all the bad stuff - when it's suppose to be Spring. I am so happy not to be clearing snow off my windshie...
Paige,
Summer will be here before you know it... 60 days or so! Looking forward to hearing all the details from your Sew South Adventure.
April Showers
Hi Everyone, We returned back from our Spring vacation yesterday and couldn't quite believe that it was sleeting....!? We decided to drive to Florida this year since it's only about 11 hours to our destination, but yesterday I think the entire East coast was under siege by some sort of precipit...
Thanks Lee! I think Patsy's gift bag with the tipsy glass was perfect.
Classes at The Little General
Hello! I had previously mentioned that I am going to be teaching a bunch of fun classes at The Little General this year.... I worked for hours days trying get a schedule together, write class descriptions, make samples, write supply lists and instructions & create sewing patterns ... the process...
Well said Shannon! I like it - a quote worthy of embroidery. See you tomorrow.
Modern Fabric Group Therapy Meeting Tomorrow
Hi ~ I am getting excited about our 1st MFGTherapy Session tomorrow. I really think we all should be able to submit claims to Blue Cross Blue Shield for this much needed treatment. Although being a fabric/sewing enthusiast isn't actually a disease, I would venture to say that it is most defin...
Hi Linda,
Great to hear from you! Hope your year is off to a good start.
My grandma used her flour sac towels to take cookie sheets out of the oven too.... She also used them for covering rising yeast dough, dusting around the house and drying dishes. Never really considered how multi-functional these towels really are.

Memphis

Jobs are totally overrated Paige. I am thinking about starting a night time version of MFGT~ I will keep you posted.

Pillows & Dues
Random title for a blog post - I know. I am trying to get myself acclimated to sharing more with you through this blog. My intention is to touch base 2 or more times per week - I think that is doable. It's amazing how things you really want to do can get pushed to the wayside - I will do my b...
