Deer Quilt Complete
This quilt was for my dad’s neighbor who helped build the screened-in porch. When I started it (about 5 months ago) I didn’t realize how Christmasy it was! Now I wish I had made the deer’s nose red. I hope he liked it! It’s made from a pattern in Dare to Be Square Quilting by… Read More

It’s the last month of my virtual bee, Bee Happy. Well, the last month for me, anyway. I’m still 4 months behind in my sewing! Talk about guilt! So I’m opting out of next year’s festivities. Kind of a bummer. But who knew I’d go full time at my job, move across the country, buy… Read More
TGIF!
I think Friday is my favorite day of the week. The feeling of joy I get at about 6 pm on a Friday is unmatched by anything else these days. That was a little bleak. So anyway, it’s blood donor month. Did you know that? One donation can help up to 3 people! I’ve got… Read More
