About Bloggging....




I have been asked numerous times, by numerous people, about how I got started blogging.  It began about 5 years ago, and I've been mainly blogging ever since.  A very special friend helped me set it up and get started.  I am not savvy at this sort of thing, but new I wanted to share my love of quilting with other quilters.  I also felt I wanted to send good things out into the world......thus my thought for each day that I write.  These thoughts are first and for most for me to consider for myself for daily living.  I have continues writing because of all of the encouragement and appreciation I receive from my readers.  I've received emails and phone calls from those who say my blog has helped them get through difficult times.  I feel a real connection and kinship to many of you.  I have received back more than I have ever given.

Coming up in May, I will be travelling to Grand Rapids, Michigan to share my love of quilting with the guild there.  I love these times when I connect with like minded quilters from around the country.  If you are reading this and you are in the area, I'd love to meet with you.  I will be doing a trunk show and teaching a couple of classes.


This new little quilt is growing.  I just have the bottom border to complete.  I just love this ideal of having peace and an awareness that I also have plenty.  And because I do, I'd like to be generous in sharing what I have.


Another exceptional quilt from the museum.


Isn't the hand quilting just phenomenal?


Kaye is a very talented local designer and quilter.


When we stood back and viewed this quilt, it seemed to us that there was a subtle design......especially in the center of the quilt.  Do you see it?


I part with this thought....Kindness is FREE!  Sprinkle that stuff everywhere.  This is something I saw on Pinterest and couldn't pass it up. Have a perfectly enjoyable week end.

  4. The one patch --the last photo -- almost looks like a 9-patch in some places. Absolutely, yes, I can see the design in the center with the green 9-patch block. It looks very purposeful to me, though not obvious at first viewing.
