I recently entered two quilts in the local quilt show in Henderson, Nevada.  I wasn’t sure how I would do because it was a big show with lots of amazing entries.  Why did I torture myself and enter a show to be judged by others?  I want to share my quilts and inspire others.  I also want to learn how …
Today is my turn for the Glorious Autumn Block Party hosted by Michele at Quilting Gallery! If you haven’t been following along you are missing out on some great blocks! A big warm welcome to any folks dropping by for the first time today. I’ve put together a little mosaic of some of my favorite …
Welcome to hump day! I hope you all are enjoying a fabulous Wednesday. I’m rather enjoying the slightly cooler temps here in Texas and I’m anxiously awaiting the official arrival of fall. Maybe that will happen in the next week or two. Today’s post is a bit different than usual. By now, some of you …
Wow! I never would have thought my last post would get so many comments in favor of Mr. Fugly. I guess he might not be so fugly after all! By the way, my new favorite word is forgeous {forever gorgeous} thanks to Crickets Corner! That’s a superb word and I plan on using it, a …

The last couple of days have been quite a challenge for me. I’ve been battling a monster headache which makes sewing pretty interesting. I have managed to get another top almost ready for Roscoe. Please excuse the terrible picture. I had to take it indoors because we’ve been having hurricane force winds here in Texas. …
I haven’t been a very consistent blogger lately. I seem to have fallen back into my lazy blogger pants. I’m going to make myself get back to business and start blogging regularly again. After all, I do have a lot of information and quilty goodness that I want to share. Let’s start with some pictures …
Good evening everyone! I thought I would take a moment and share a very special quilt with all of you. But before we get to that I want to remind everyone of the current giveaway we are sponsoring at World of Charity Stitching. You could win a great Jelly Roll just in time for Christmas. …
It’s been another busy day around here. I didn’t feel like working on the binding for either of my quilts that need it…so I didn’t. But here’s a look at the Sunkissed Quilt without the binding. The soft pink and grey colors are so beautiful. Today I started working on 1 of 5 quilts that …
