This last weekend I had a couple of hours to work in my sewing room. I was almost at a loss for what project to work on, then I remembered that last time I straightened up the room I put many unfinished projects (UFO's) into one location. I hurried over and opened it up. This… Continue reading Workbasket – Layette Done!
Workbasket – Layette & Succulent Wall Hanging
The layette project is almost at an end. Being that I had started this project as a gift for someone else, but it was no longer needed, I hadn't initially had a hard "finish by" date. When DC had mentioned that she'd like it for a baby shower gift, I had to speed things up… Continue reading Workbasket – Layette & Succulent Wall Hanging
A Nice Long Weekend with Lady Friends
Recently I spent a nice long weekend with some of my lady friends. It was especially wonderful because I hadn't seen any of these friends for a very long time. We were all coming together for some special occasion dress shopping. I stayed with my friend LB and her fiancé, in the cutest little house… Continue reading A Nice Long Weekend with Lady Friends

After finishing the Carlton Wine Country 5K on… Continue reading A Wonderfully Long Holiday Weekend

While on summer motorcycle trip, I snuck in a… Continue reading Workbasket – Layette progress and a new project
DW’s Birthday Quilt – Many years, and three homes, in the making of…
This project has only been in the works for approximately 5 years. It might be longer, but that is all I am willing to admit to. By "in the works" I mean that I actually cut out the t-shirts, Freychecked the edges, order the how-to book and the templates for making the quilt. Until now,… Continue reading DW’s Birthday Quilt – Many years, and three homes, in the making of…
Work Basket – 2 weeks of progress on Layette project
It seems like work has been extra busy. We have been busy at home, for sure, with the push on the basement remodel. We also were blessed with Auntie E coming to stay for the weekend. I think that I have mentioned that I have been unable to work much on the knitting at home, so it has been… Continue reading Work Basket – 2 weeks of progress on Layette project
