About Me

I've decided that I need to win the lottery so that I can stay at home and stitch all the time! (Of course I think that's probably a dream I share with all of my stitching friends!) Like most stitchers, I have a stash that I could never possibly deplete in 3 lifetimes and I love to go stash diving at least once a month! I have 3 kitty companions that I've had since kitten-hood. One is now 16 and the other 2 are 14. They are a constant source of enjoyment! My family and friends are very important to my life. They help keep me grounded and sane and I'm very grateful to have them with me thru life's journey.

Saying Goodbye!

...to my Febuary stitching goals, that is! I was doing quite well on my stitching goals this month until I started working on L&L's The Quiltmaker. I really didn't have a lot to do to finish this beauty, but I figured I would stay the course and work the planned 15 hours this month and finish her next month. Welllll - forget that! LOL After 16 plus hours, the little girl's skirt is nearly finished and all I have left are the half-circle of quilt blocks over the quilter's head. I just can't stop now! That finish is calling to me, heck, it's YELLING at me and I don't want to ignore it. So the remaining uncompleted goals are being tossed out the window and I'm on to a long-awaited finish on this piece for my Mom. Be watching for the completed piece - I should be posting it this weekend!

Mary, I'm so looking forward to seeing your finished Quiltmaker! I love this design especially the colors in it. I have it in my stash and may just have to stitch it someday. I hate all MLI's color changes though. Kudos to you for doing it.
