Some of my "buddies".

The big siamese looking cat
is my cat, Dusty - he is
16lbs. and if you look in
the hole below him to the
right is little Missy - she is
only 6 lbs., but "rules the roost"!

A finish!

This is a close up of a quilt I started in a class taught by my friend Diane. It is a "Fun and Done" quilt pattern which is a variation on "quilt as you go". It was a lot of fun in class, but then I got bored and I am glad it is finally done.

I really loved the colors, which is one of the reasons it is not still in the UFO pile and - "bonus" - all the fabric came from stash!!

A year has gone by!!

I finished quilting a quilt for a friend of mine today. She did such a great job piecing it, I wanted to do some special quilting for her. Here is a closeup of what I did in the border. I used one of the new rulers I bought at the International Quilt Festival in Chicago.


Brooke is almost 6 months old already - unbelievable but true! It sure is different being a grandma vs. mom. Here is the latest photo of the cutie patootie! That is her mom (my daughter) Stefani at her High School graduation. I sure am proud of both of them!



I am going to TRY and update this on at least a weekly basis with a photo or 2 of what I am working on, finishing, or just dreaming about. Wish me luck!
