eliott’s quilt – Done
Eliott’s quilt is DONE! I guess… As you can see, I have doubts about it. I love the small miminalist blocks with the hand stitching. I love the stencilled stars and moons on the border. I always like to have stars and moons on my quilts, and those in the border are not the only …
etsy
Looking at etsy is so sad. Everything is so inexpensive and so well done. I wonder how I would ever sell anything with my chaotic work. I’ve begun to realize that I am really working on are journals. Here’s a list of journals, some complete some in progress: Wardrobe (always in flux) Price book (newest) …
there she is again
I got so much accomplished this weekend. I got the whole quilt basted, and much of it quilted. I had some pleating in the back due to the polar fleece stretching. With a lot of stitch picking, I almost have all the pleats gone. It looks good, and I’m proud I got so much done …

I feel so blessed and loved. I’ve been working on my clothing journal more than anything the past few …

long time very little work
Many’s the time I’ve been mistaken And many times confused Yes, and I’ve often felt forsaken And certainly misused Oh, but I’m all right, I’m all right I’m just weary to my bones Still, you don’t expect to be Bright and bon vivant So far away from home, so far away from home – American …
