Martinique For Real
I picked this pattern up recently, both because I liked the look of it, and because it is jelly roll friendly. Then I realized that the designer had featured the new fabric collection Martinique by 3 Sisters for Moda! Every season 3 Sisters reliably comes out with a great new collection. Martinique is their Spring…

Martinique and Chicken Korma
Good morning everyone! I am a bit off my blogging schedule this week, due to the holiday weekend and recovering from my little sinus procedure. Hope to get back to my earlybird hours tomorrow. I visited my doctor yesterday for my post op checkup. He seemed very pleased with his work, and told me that I…

Perfect Spring Weekend
I hope you all had a lovely long weekend! Wow, both Valentine's Day and Presidents' Day–will riches never cease? Thank you all so much for your good wishes on my speedy recovery from sinus surgery. I was pretty miserable the first two days, but after that I was on the mend. My husband kept referring…

Thanks For All the Good Wishes
Thanks so much for all the good wishes on my surgery yesterday. I feel very blessed to have such wonderful friends in Blogland! The doctor says the surgery went very well. A great success. I say maybe so, but my gosh, my entire face, including my teeth hurt. Good thing for vicodin. This should just…

Deer Valley, Joel Dewberry, Chinese Plates and Thelma
Did you all see Thelma's blog earlier this week? She showed some photos of a gorgeous Oriental Plate quilt that she had made. It was only her third quilt, and she used her imagination and math skills to figure out a wonderful border and a different setting than the pattern had dictated. When I saw…

Hippy Dippy Camping Trip
The term "hippy dippy" has a derogatory sound to it, but I have to disagree with the popular slang definition. To me, Hippy Dippy implies something that is idealistic, naive and loving. Peace, Flower Power. Volkswagen camper vans with daisies painted on the sides. All good things. I remember being a teenager in the 60's…

Ridiculously Cute
At the risk of sounding like I am from California, these blocks are seriously cute. Totally adorable. Dude. I mean rullly. I started making these blocks mid-day on Sunday, and am not sure I am able to stop. Forget about dinner, forget about watching tv, or finishing that good book. All I want to do…

Simple Abundance
Well, I am certainly late to the party in collecting this fabric line. What happened to me was an excess of part time jobs that interfered with my awareness of all the wonderful collections out there. I am making an effort to get caught up. In the nick of time. The beautiful fabrics pictured…

Sometimes Good is Good Enough
First of all, let me tell you that I love this alternate block. I experimented this weekend and tried a couple of the suggestions that were offered by some of you dear readers. This block came out dead on at 12 1/2 inches unfinished. And I like the look of it. But then I started…

Les Triplettes de Toulouse Reveal~
How happy am I with this Toulouse quilt top? VERY happy. In the words of Ma Ramatswe "I am veddy happy Rrraa". What does the Botswanan detective have to do with anything? Nothing, I just like the way she talks. And, you gotta admit, she seems very happy. Ra. Or Ma. Thelma, Lisa and I found…
