Busy

Summer is here. This is my favorite time to quilt. I am getting ready for the hot days spent indoors near the air conditioning, the quilt shows, and getting ready to quilt for the Sept-December Birthdays and Holidays. I am working on a few projects that were started and never got finished. Now is the time. Have a good summer and I will keep you posted on the projects ahead.

New Marriage. New life.

I got married for the last time on February 22, 2010. I am starting my new life. Which gives me an excuse to start a new quilt for our new life. But really, who needs an excuse, quilting is my lifetime passion, sorry honey. I will be dragging my new husband through quilt shops, quilts shows, but sorry my new love, retreats are my time without you. I love you lots.

 

New Quilt

It has been a while since I have blogged. I am working on a new baby quilt for a friend and working on some of my UFO's that I promised myself that I would finish this year. Pictures of the new quilt will be posted in my upcoming posts.

Love of Lavender

I bought some dried Lavender. It smells so good and relaxes the senses. I am making Lavender sachets for my closet, dresser drawers and my pillow cases. I plan on making a few more for friends and relatives. I love the smell of fresh and dried herbs. Quilting calms the senses too. Time to make a pink and white baby quilt for a friend and a purple friendship star for a friend that I promised two months ago. Work gets in the way of quilting, but I have 2 days

2 Days off to Quilt

Finally two days off. Wish I had the money to go to the Reno quilt show, but no such luck. I have to stay home and work on some of my unfinished quilts (UFOs). Not to bad. Maybe next weekend, there will be a quilt show that I can afford to go to. Keep searching. Drop me a comment, if you know of a quilt show in California next weekend. The picture is one that I made for my friend's mother with breast cancer.

No time for quilts

I admit that I have not had a lot of time to quilt as I have been working a lot of hours at my night job. Quilting is my passion, but this year I have not had a lot of time to make any. The baby quilt for my grandson and the quilt for my friend's mother who has breast cancer, those are the ones I have completed. The quilt show in Sisters Oregon is this weekend, but I could not get the time off. Maybe next year as the Sisters quilt show is one of the best. The picture is one of the quilts from last years show that is one of my favorites
