Snapshots of My Week

This has been a strange week for me.  I worked on lots of odd projects, spent one day in meetings, and one day at a very tough funeral. I’m knitting.  I finally figured out what the green blob was.  I...

Discipline Is NOT My Middle Name

I’m pretty sure I have the self discipline of a two year old. I had a couple of things I was going to do today. 1. Finish laundry and clean the laundry room. 2. Clean my sewing room. I also promised...

Drive by Fabric Post

Remember the table I painted black with lime green legs? I got such great, helpful advice from blog readers. (No, that wasn’t sarcasm!) Someone posted some links to fabric, and I quickly realized I...

Another holiday, another unfinished quilt. The July 4th one is quilted, minus the binding! Does that count? We’re heading out today to spend Christmas with The Genius. She has that little thing called...

Jobs I Dislike

There’s a reason I’ve put off stitching the binding on this quilt. It’s king size and I hate stitching binding. Happy Friday night. Go back to whatever you were doing. I’m done whining!!!

A Sunny Summer Quilt

I finished a quilt.  Finally.  I quilted it last summer and used a cotton batting so it would be cooler.  I finished the binding last night.  Good Grief. That’s all I have to say about that! Actually,...

The main reason I’m visiting The Genius this week is to play nurse.  (Oz was just a huge added bonus!)  She’s having eye surgery for strabismus.  If you’re really bored, you can read about it here....

I Am NOT a Patient Person!

I learned something about myself today.  Yay!  How exciting….not! I was watching a Craftsy* class and knitting away.  (I’ll tell you about Craftsy in a minute!)  Ironically, the class was a free one...

Ok, So I Can’t Just Sit!

I have a little problem with being able to just sit.  If I’m not knitting, my mind wanders.  The Genius is the same way.  She knit through some of high school and a lot in college. As I said in...

Progress!

Well, I think I have a third of the ginormous quilt finished.  Except that I already have a few more ideas of things to add to it. I tend to fret about every stage of this quilt before I get going on...

It’s Party Time!!!

Not that kind!  The binding kind of party. Both pieces of the ginormous quilt are quilted.  (If you’d like the back story on the quilt, read this post.)  I pulled it off the machine and trimmed it...

Wednesday’s Wanderings

Where have I been since April 3 when I did my last blog post?  I’m not really sure.  All that I know is that in one week we had a band concert, annual meeting, choir concert, and a fundraiser dinner at...

National Coffee Day Quilting!

I really intended to get this posted yesterday, but I got sucked into the unfinished quilt vortex.  It’s a good thing Dreamboy is away at college because there are quilt tops all over his bed.  He...

All Crafting! All the Time!

I’ve been a bit craft crazed lately.  Maybe that’s why when I did laundry last weekend, the piles resembled mountains!  It had been a while. I want to knit everything, spin everything and quilt...

Christmas Quilting

I finished a quilt.  Yes, you read that right.  Well, sort of.  It’s pieced, but not quilted. I started this quilt several years ago and quickly got bored making star blocks.  I’d pack it away and...
