Disclaimer – I wrote this, well not exactly this, but something close last night…and then the post was deleted, never to be found. So I am writing again this beautiful Saturday morning.  Last week ended and this week began with a Revival meeting at church. Bro Josiah from Nigeria came to preach the Word ofContinue reading “Friday Scraps – from a “not much was accomplished” week”

For that person that has everything…

So Christmas is coming…and with it comes the struggle of what to get for that person that has everything. Don’t settle with just giving money or a generic gift card. Give the gift of memories.

That one day I spent lots at the Quilt shop

Yeah…that was today, but it wasn’t all for me…in fact only 3 yards of the about 30 yards was for me. First, there was some heavy neutral cotton for Sammy’s weighted blanket. Yes it is plain, but then we can make lots of duvets for more excitement. Then this lovely Brown stripe to accompany theContinue reading “That one day I spent lots at the Quilt shop”

One of the First and Regular Quilting Customers

In thinking about my beginnings, my thoughts go back to my first customers. Or one of my first. We started working together in March of 2011.

First T-Shirt Quilt from Eppies Great Race

I have to admit, I haven’t received the response I expected from being a vendor at Eppies Great Race. I thought with all those people, more orders would have happened by now…but maybe these things come in time. There was a lot of positive feedback from those that stopped by and hopefully more orders for Continue reading “First T-Shirt Quilt from Eppies Great Race”

Quilting Brand

A friend of mine was over the other day and I was showing her the studio (garage) and my portfolio. As she was looking through my books she asked if I had a signature or image that I quilt into all of the pieces I do. I don’t…or I should say I didn’t. This hasContinue reading “Quilting Brand”
