What a Day
I haven't had quite as much time to sew as I had expected, due to my poor grand dog Remy's anxiety issues. Since we are taking care of him for a few days while his family is on vacation, we have witnessed how severe his anxiety issues are. He will go to the veterinarian on…

Doggie Dementia
Have any of you heard of canine dementia? I am curious. I know a bit about dementia in humans, having had friends and relatives succumb to it. There is a symptom that is particularly interesting that is called "Sundowner Syndrome" which apparently affects not only us humans with dementia, but dogs as well. This little…

Mushroom Leek Tart
Hope you all had a lovely weekend. Mine started last Thursday and lasted through Sunday. It was my birthday yesterday and I seemed to have started the celebration early. My daughter and her husband came over yesterday for a barbeque and I rounded out the meal with a mushroom leek tart. It was so easy…

Red Sampler Blocks Underway
New Project! Woo hoo! I am so excited to show you my first two weeks of Lori Holt's Red Sampler Sew Along. Each week it seems we will make one 12 inch block and two 6 inch blocks. The block patterns come from three or four of her published books, so it sure helps if…

Sewcialites- Almost Done
Well. Sewcialites is just about a finish for me. There are a couple more weeks in the sew-along, but I really want to put a cap on this project and finish it up. I made a couple of extra 6-inch blocks to fill in the blanks and figured out my setting. The setting I chose…

Simple Folded Corner Ruler
My big news is that I have only two more vertical rows to sew for my Moda BlockHeads 3 quilt! That quilt is just humongous. King-sized for sure. As I was sewing a row together over the weekend, I noticed one of my twelve-inch blocks was just a mess. I do not know what happened,…

Red Sampler Sew Along
Uh oh, you know what that means. I have been going through cans of starch like nobody's business lately. These yummy fabrics are mostly from Riley Blake, getting prepped for a sew-along Lori Holt is hosting, called the Red Sampler Sew Along. As I said, the fabrics are Lori's from various collections she has done…

Making Progress
I'm about halfway finished with sewing the blocks together in my Moda BlockHeads 3 quilt. Woo Hoo! I love this little quartet above. Did you know that when a bee returns to the hive she can tell the other bees where the good flowers are by doing a little dance? She explains it all by…

Sewcialites Block #33, Not.
Last week was the release of the Sewcialites Sew Along Block #33, which was a sewing machine. It was cute I suppose, but to me, it didn't fit in very well with the other blocks. So I decided to substitute in something else that I felt was more in keeping with the style of the…

Light At the End of the Tunnel (in more ways than one!)
I have been sewing! I wasn't completely sure what I was going to share with you today, because there are choices! My number one priority right now is to get the rows of Moda BlockHeads 3 together and get this monster off my design wall. Naturally, I had forgotten all the details of what size…
