    You Could Have Heard A Pin Drop…

    Quilts, Photos, and Empty Nests

    Happy February! It’s a time for candy, hearts, flowers, and for me…turning 50! It’s a weird number and it’s just a number. I won’t be too bothered by it. It’s my turn for a quarantine birthday on the 22nd. I share the day with a few celebs like Drew Barrymore, Steve Irwin, Ted Kennedy, and […]

    Been Awhile!

    I just saw that my last blog post was in February! Time flies when you’re quarantined…Our state (MA) is beginning phase 2 of our reopening.

  • What Do You Call An Immature Goat?

    A silly Billy, of course! Lol, did I entice you to open the blog post? I spent last week in close contact with a goat but his name wasn’t Billy. I named my goat friend, Felipe! And he’s all finished! My little Felipe went from a photo I took a few years ago to a […]

    What To Put In An EPP Travel Kit and Studio Happenings

    Do you EPP? English paper piecing or EPP as it is affectionately known to quilters, is a fabulous way to to make fun appliques using scrap fabric and small templates.

    Best Turkey Chili and Quilty Stuff!

    Best Turkey Chili?  I live in Massachusetts so you know I’m going to say, “They did it again!” It is hard to believe that another Super Bowl is in the books. We had our friends over for a fun night of football, food, and a little bit of crocheting! I’ve been trying to stick to […]

  • A New Episode, A Challenge, And A Brewery

    This past week was a busy one with the hustle and bustle of Thanksgiving. I so enjoyed having all my girls home in one place!               On Sunday, Greg and I drove Lindsey back to the University of Vermont and we stopped at the Lawson’s Brewery on the way […]

  • Is There Such A Thing As Too Much Fun?

    Nope! I don’t think so, especially when it comes to quilting! Last Saturday I met up with my mom and her quilty friends at a local quilt show. We had a great time going through the show and then out to lunch afterwards. Though the show was small, there were some real works of art […]
