My Day on Show Your Stripes Blog Hop

I had the greatest time deciding on a project for this hop. There were just so many choices. Practicality set in and I chose to make a new bag for my knitting or crocheting.

Wonderful Wednesday

Had some fun today playing with scraps. 😄 I’ve been busy doing some organizing and redrafting patterns. I even drew out a quilting design on a quilt top.

Sunday Sewing

The weather is starting to warm up and our forecast for the upcoming week is for snow almost every day which means more time with myContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sewing”

Scrappy Saturday

We are still suffering from nasty, cold weather here but you wouldn’t know it by the state of my sewing table! This month’s RSC is yellow.

Project Quilting 12.3

I don’t know about you, but I’m having trouble imagining vacations and being able to travel again. I thought of going to visit kids, grands and great grands and that sounded busy and fun.
