Greetings from North Dakota!

I Just re-read my posts from this winter and I want to tell you that I really did get several projects accomplished. I hand quilted a wall hanging/table runner for my sister's new kitchen, a large baby blanket, 2 "dolly" quilts, a cloth story book, and a purse that I made in the class I took at a local quilt store. Everyone was pleased with the quilts etc and I've used my purse almost every day since I finished it. Since I got home I've been concentrating on…

Arizona visit

I'm going to be spending two months in Casa Grande AZ this winter. And I'm planning on doing some quilting while I'm there. Last year I bought a sewing machine and let it with my sister so I have that to use. I'm bringing along some fabric to make baby quilts for gifts and a quilt that I've begun for my daughter. I'm staying in a motel instead of with relatives, so I should have time to make some progress on my projects. I'm also planning on taking a class at… Continue

Back after a long absence!

Dear Friends,

I've not been in contact for quite awhile. I spent two months in Arizona this winter and had a wonderful time connecting in person with Cornwoman/AZ. However, I didn't get to see her a often as I'd hoped to either. However, I have reservations to rent a place to stay for a couple of months next winter and then I'll have my own transportation. That will make it easier to do the activities that I want to do, I will have a sewing machine down there and hopefully… Continue

The end and the beginning

Dear Friends,

This year is ending and the new year is beginning the moment the old year ends. That's the way life is---just when we think something is ending, something new is beginning. I'm with my son in Arizona just where I was last year, but a whole 365 days have come and gone inbetween my visits. Looking out his windows I see catus and sand and palm trees---a much different scene than I would see from my windows in North Dakota. This year my town (Grand Forks) got 24 1/2 inches of… Continue

Finally!

Tonight I finished some sewing projects that I have insisted (to myself) that I must finish before I can do any quilting! Now I can allow myself to actually quilt instead of looking at the pictures of all the beautiful ones all of you have made! I have a baby quilt to make before I have to get busy making flannel pajama bottoms for my three grandchildren for Christmas. They are 21, 19, and 7. All of them love pj bottoms to lounge in. When they were small I made all their jammies, and now… Continue

At 9:38pm on September 8, 2013, June Johnson/Wi said…: Ginger, welcome to my list of friends. My DH and I love the Dakotas. In his childhood DH spent a week many summers on a ranch out of Wall, SD; all of those relatives are now deceased so we just go to visit the attractions that we love. For six months my DSIL drove truck in the oil fields near Minot/Bismark areas; he said 6 months away from family was enough (my DD tho't so also). My DH used to have relatives in Grand Forks so visited there also; their last name was Winkka. So I feel like I have connections with the Dakotas. Happy quilting!
