Hello Friends – Well, I’m traveling these two weeks and here I am away from my family, and my sewing machine … what to do? I’ve borrowed a friend’s machine, brought some pre-cut blocks to sew up and can’t wait to post them for you to see how I spent my weekend! Sending out love [...]

OK, I absolutely know that it is 6 days after Easter and that MDFA is out of town right now. But that won’t stop me from dropping it off at her house to surprise her when she gets back, along with a NEW COPY of Mix and Match Quilt Blocks. It’s the rockin’ book that MDFA [...]

My dear Friend A** (MDFA) has totally hooked me on quilting. Yes, I love fabric, sewing, knitting, weaving and stitchery of all kinds. So it was a natural leap. However, I had previously thought, “what’s the big deal here?” Now I’m thinking, “wow, I could get totally obsessed with this!” So MDFA has been nudging me [...]
