Brother The Third – PQ1500s

So if you’re keeping count this is really the 4th, but I hot handed off that Viking to get the Horizon and never looked back.  It wasn’t a bad little machine, but we just didn’t bond.

I sat down and sewed on Faygo Kitty Machine… which my Mother has insisted we call them… these may [...]

RIP Faygo 1-8-2012

Ascension And if I go, while you’re still here… Know that I live on, vibrating to a different measure –behind a thin veil you cannot see through. You will not see me, so you must have faith. I wait for the time when we can soar together [...]

The Lily Bath Chronicles

Poor girl needed yet another bath.  She is having issues and isn’t feeling very well right now, so not just a bath, but a dose of icky banana flavored medicine (2x a day for a week…little does she know right now).

Really? I can't believe you went and got the camera.

I'm ignoring [...]

Happy 2012!

Let’s hope it’s a good one…

I decided I only have one goal this year.  Yes, while I have a zillion things on the to-do list and many more waiting in the wings, the only thing that is an absolute must do in 2012 is to finish the Famer’s Wife top.  I’m determined to get [...]

Finishing Up 2011

So last day of the year… just a small wrap up, as I’ve been busy as ever working on projects and trying to check things off the list.

I finished two bags for friends for Christmas prezzies.

Here’s the insides… one in beige and one in gray.

I also managed to finished the [...]

Farmer’s Wife

I signed up at one of my LQS to do a Farmer’s Wife quilt along.  I had a chance to pop over to the store today to pick up supplies.  I want to do this in reproduction fabric, but alas I had none in my stash.  Poor me… it required stash enhancement.  I wanted to [...]

Updating

So I took last week off and decided to do some house upkeep.  One of the things I wanted to do was to re-paint and fix up the front.  Since we got the new white windows I found the beige to be… well… beige.

Here’s the before…

Here’s the after with some lovely red.  [...]

Library Finds

So after donating 4 bags of books last week for the library sale, I couldn’t help myself and went to the library book sale.  I had a good purge. It was time to browse. I sometimes find really useful books and for $5 for a paper grocery bag full – it’s hard to resist.

Here [...]

Hiatus

Happy Whisker’s on Wednesday!

Sorry for the long hiatus. Right after the windows were replaced – Coco needed knee surgery. It’s been quite a recovery period – 4 weeks so far tomorrow and then another 8 weeks of restrictions. Between taking care of her and everything else going on it’s been a challenge, but I’m [...]

Happy Happy

Happy Holidays. We just managed to suck down some delicious ham. DH cooked in the Le Cruset and wow… it was falling off the bone and super juicy. And while I don’t have a picture of it yet, I have finished quilting a flannel quilt.

What was I thinking? That thing was impossible to move [...]
