I made a new friend this week, she thinks she\’s all that and a bag of chips. I mean she is beautiful and has some crazy talents so I pretty much agree with her. I\’ve been hanging out with her and even though she\’s a bad a**, I think I\’m going to keep her around.Continue reading “I\’ve Been a Bad Girl.”

I was originally going to do a log cabin with pink, blue, white, and green,Continue reading “James\’ Baby Quilt”

My Quilting Theory
I always keep many different projects going on at the same time, at every stage of the process of quilting. I do this so that when I start getting bored with one, I have another one right there to keep me busy and excited about my projects. I\’m a hand quilter by nature, trying toContinue reading “My Quilting Theory”
