  I did a little something different with my Electric Quilt play time this week. I am really intrigued by 2 block quilts. I like the secondary patterns that you get when blocks meet and I love it when you get that perfect combination that makes it hard to see the original blocks. This week I started playing around with ...

  This has been the worst season so far for the nest boxes. Not one Tree Swallow nest has taken. Thank goodness for the Bluebirds!   Four babies have hatched. Hopefully they will make it to fledge. It also looks like the Eastern Pheobe is nesting again outside our bathroom window.

  Well, Mom did it. She finished all 7 quilts in 3 days! This is the last one and another one that was done with a bunch of large scale fat quarters that I sent to them from my stash.

• Time Management

  
  Field Trips in Fiber - Adventures in quilting, hand dyed fabric and fiber art. — Authority: 419
  In my newlsetter this week I talked about managing time and making time for the things that I want to do. For me, that almost always involves "making". Theres so much that I want to do every day that I am much more cognizant of how I spend my time than how I spend my money. I think about it constantly and am always ...

  Im going to be honest with you. Mom has exhausted me! I have my EQ post for today but I just didnt have the time I wanted to play with the colorings.

Our rotary cutting skills have really helped me with my glass cutting. Im not perfect at it but I do think I got a jump start with ...
