My Trip to the Studio
It was so wonderful to finally be able to take a trip to the studio. My ferry was running and the wait was short. It was so nice to take the ferry instead of having to drive the long way around. Still smoky but no raging flames. 😄 It was a good day to travel,ContinueContinue reading “My Trip to the Studio”
Happy Mail
When I was leaving home to come to the studio (yes, I’m still here 😄) I stopped at the post office to check our mail. I was thrilled to get not one, but two parcels. The first was a box of special goodies from Mad About Patchwork. I had won a gift certificate from thisContinueContinue reading “Happy Mail”
Friday Fabric Fun
Today I was organizing things to get read6 to go to the studio to play with my longarm. Looks like I’ll be on the road on Monday unless something unexpected comes up. The plan is to spend 3 or 4 days there to get some of the quilts finished to go to the distributor forContinueContinue reading “Friday Fabric Fun”

Wednesday’s News
We are off Evacuation Alert! The crews have done an incredible job of building fire breaks and containment lines. It helped that we had a drizzle of rain again last night. It was enough to wash the cinder and ash off the car and somewhat clear the air. I can even see the mountain ridgesContinueContinue reading “Wednesday’s News”

Another Day and A Finish
We are still on evacuation alert, but I don’t have any updated maps. The smoke is still too thick for them to get good photos to map it out. It was another day of watching helicopters and timing their runs, taking photos of these amazing pilots. Their job is hindered by the people rafting andContinueContinue reading “Another Day and A Finish”
Friday Spent Playing with Fabric
First of all to all my online friends that have commented or emailed, I’m still at home under an Evacuation Alert. Words can not express how much your well wishes and prayers mean to me. I can’t update you on the fire situation as the Government has not yet updated the website. I’m guessing theyContinueContinue reading “Friday Spent Playing with Fabric”

Felicia’s World Batik Scrappy Fun
It has been an interesting month in my part of the world. A couple of weeks ago I found myself able to spend time at the studio where I decided I needed to try working with pantos for the first time. In the week I was there I managed to finish 5 quilts on theContinueContinue reading “Felicia’s World Batik Scrappy Fun”
Quilts for Wildfire Victims
I’ve received several messages requesting more info on the quilts that are needed. The first note is that any sized quilts are needed. Whole families have been displaced from the Lytton Fire. The largest wildfires are now burning outside of Kamloops and many hundreds more households have been evacuated. They were going to evacuation sheltersContinueContinue reading “Quilts for Wildfire Victims”
Quilts for Lytton
The lives of our friends and neighbours in Lytton B.C. were irreparably changed on Wednesday, June 30, 2021 when 90% of their town was destroyed by fire. As quilters we comfort with the gift of quilts. Let’s let Lytton residents know how much we care❣️ I decided that since our province is suffering from overContinueContinue reading “Quilts for Lytton”

Yvonne from Quilting Jetgirl has a yearly resolution linky party to set new goals for the year. Then mid year she has a checkin for us to see how we are doing with keeping our goals.
