Good Morning on You! Did a little mindless sewing yesterday… that’s what I do as I plan {or procrastinate} bigger projects. This is an overdue gift for an anonymous recipient. A Rug. A Mug Rug. Everyone needs one! Every quilter probably has one… except me. I want to keep this but alas I will be [...]
I was good… well at least I was better than Pam! She makes me proud! Such a great idea too… here I’ve been wasting my time by obediently entering all the online AccuQuilt GO! contests. Here is my proof of the sweet, kind, honest person I am {no patterns, I just sew as I go}: [...]
Okay… queue the song… It was going through my head all day yesterday … and dang, it still is!… While I was sewing. Not sure yet what I’m making. I’m not a great plan ahead type. I tend to fly by the seat of my pants. Here’s a glimpse… of my sewing… not the seat [...]
Happy Monday on You! The weather here is soooo nice! It actually was in the 50ºs this morning. I have a whirlwind of sewing planned. It HAS to get done. When I am in that mode I MUST have a music playlist {at bottom of post. Click on it to make it big and then [...]

Yes I was out of town… but I was out of it blog-wise prior to leaving. The end of July beginning of August were…uh…let’s just say they were eventful, stressful and joyful. Our dearest, sweetest friend fell 18 ft off a roof {he is an insurance adjuster like my Mr. Coffee}. He broke a LOT [...]
I see some of “us” are cycling {ha! get it? cycling??} right along for the Quilt Le Tour de France. I see new photos up in our Quilt Le Tour Flickr group Me? Well…uh…I have done these! Not my quilt blocks but they ARE cycling related. I gave them yesterday to the All Ladies Alley [...]
Sew, Mama, Sew! Wants to know about our Thread Stash. My thread stash is dwindling…especially in the quilting and general sewing threads selection. I have used up so much. I haven’t shown pictures of all my threads. Many cones of serger thread are stored in a plastic bin. My excess machine embroidery thread is also [...]
I’m sewing sun hats for some special little munchkins. This is the first one. I used some old fabric from my stash. . . O L D . . . this fabric was used when my now 20yr old daughter was a munchkin! {so I’ve had this fabric about 15yrs??} I still need to steam [...]
Literally. These babies leave on their journey tomorrow to a Cyclist in the Midwest. Made from a recycled wool suit and some stretch cotton knit. Done. Now I can sew something QuiltYish. {Hats ©2010 Kongko Design}
