This might be long, and take a couple emails to do! First, let's start with Mary (aka MIMI, the Princess of PInk). She sprouted up and is 5 ft 7, still skinny as a rail and almost 18! Her education has been all over the place. 3rd grade was the last one in the elementary school with her brothers,...

Hello folks, I have a baby quilt nearly finished, all pinned and ready to quilt, so wouldn't you know it - someone went and had a baby. These things happen. Mark's sister just had a baby boy, so the red/white/blue quilt will be finished and go to him (James). But James has a 3-year-old brother,...

I've just had a short note from Sandy - not long, because she cant see very well yet. But this is just to let you know that the operation went well and Sandy is optimistic about the outcome. She is in some discomfort, so won't be around here for a little while. It's good news that all is well,...

Can't say 'jet' cause we didn't fly or use any aircraft. Been hit pretty 'hard' with it, thus no typing about our trip, as of yet. It was SSsssssssssoooooooooooooooooo worth it in more ways than one. We did manage to do ALMOST everything we set out to do......didn't get any 'meet-ups' as a coupla...

I have just finished sewing my first French Braid Quilt top. I selected black/white fabrics for the braids and shades of yellow for the accent squares. Now the quilt has started speaking to me, "I want a yellow back!" I really prefer to use 108" wide fabric for the back. The hunt is on! Can...
