My Goals for December 2024
Winter is my favourite time of the year. Itâs time to plan and sort things; time to settle in with the snow falling and kids tobogganing on the course. I have set myself some goals to complete before the end of the month. Iâve given up recording my UFOs and WIPs on my trackers. IContinueContinue reading “My Goals for December 2024”
Merry Christmas to one and All! đ€¶đ»
‘Twas the night before Christmas,And the quilts were not made.The threads were all tangled, the cookies delayed.The stocking weren’t hung, the pantry was bare.The poor weary Quilter, was tearing her hair.Stacks of fat quarters, tipped over in streams.Visions of Log Cabins, had turned into dreams. When what to her wondering eyes should appear,But a busContinueContinue reading “Merry Christmas to one and All! đ€¶đ»”

Should I or Shouldnât I?
I have a dilemma! I have an agreement to buy an item that Iâve dreamed of owning forever: My problem is that it doesnât have a case.
