I often forget to take pictures of the people I get to meet. Often thinking that time will allow for picture taking later. Oddly enough it doesn't happen. So that I have these is something of a miracle. Linzi is a blogger (The Quilt Quine) I've been following for years, and a BERNINA Ambassador. Linzi… Continue reading QuiltCon

2017 Word of the Year
well I guess I never decided on a 2016 word, or just kept the one from 2015: Journey.

A Tale of two Quilt Shops
This might sound a little overly dramatic and it's intended to be because drama can be so very much fun. I shopped on Small Business Saturday #smallbusinesssaturday for the fun of it. I don't need fabric, but I love it so what the heck. Shop 2: Colchester Mill Fabrics - Colchester, CT for my local… Continue reading A Tale of two Quilt Shops

Leading up to Market there are things going on behind the scenes that have us all arriving tired, wanting to make sure all the eyes are dotted… Continue reading Renewed

Well, it looks like there is a little bit of a problem here. One might say it's twisted. Just so you know, this isn't my machine. I do know who it belongs to, however I will protect identity to protect the innocent. These things happen, not often mind you, but they do happen. I sent… Continue reading Fixed
