About Me
I have 2 grown children and 2 grandchildren. I'm a self taught quilter and I've been quilting about 3 years and love it. I've made many quilts for friends and relatives and family. I take pictures of each one and sometimes the back. We like to travel in our motorhome from June to mid Oct. and take our 13 yrs old grandaughter with us for 3-5 weeks. She keeps us young and such a big part of our lives. Our last trip each season is down the WA and OR coast, fishing, crabbing and sightseeing.

My Happy Quilt

I just want to share with you that the 2nd quilt that I made for Project Linus was done in 4 1/2 days. I didn't do anything else, but sew. Yesterday, The Project Linus group had a sewing day doing Xmas stockings for the Armed Servicemen overseas. Wow, was I impressed with all the material that has been donated, plus batting and some made into kits to take home to sew the quilts. Also, made new quilting friends. Tomorrow, DH and I are going to Coeur d'Alene, ID for a few days. Always fun to go ba… Continue

Hi Everyone

I haven't been doing any blogging lately, but have been reading them. Seems that I don't have all that much to say. We left here on Sept. 14th and was gone just over 3 weeks on our last trip of the season. We had beautiful sunny weather most of the time, but also, some very hard wind and pouring down rain a couple of times. We went down I-5 from home to Rochester, WA and stayed at the Lucky Eagle Casino our 1st night out. They have Sr. buffet for only $6.95 every Mon and that's why we stopped. O… Continue

We'll be going down I-5 as far as Grants Pass, OR and then heading west to the CA. and OR border and going north on HY 101. we will be crabbing, sightseeing and lots of exploring in new and old favorite places along the way. The last leg of… Continue

Evergreen State Fair

Last Thurs, was the opening day of the fair and DH and I took our grandaughter,14 yrs old, and her friend with us. They got in free, but we bought bracelets for them at $25.00 each. Then they had to have money for games and food. We had them check in with us by phone every 1 1/2 hours and it worked out great. One of the 1st places we went was the quilt building. DH went in with me and looked around. Then he waited outside until I was finished looking. He said " Your quilts are nicer than some of… Continue

Sharon, hope your Thanksgiving holiday is a wonderful one. Ours is over in October so we have a long stretch between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Your quilts are so bright and colourful and you manage to get so much done...I envy you as I seem to be in the "half done" stage on way too many lately. Only excuse is that the Baltimore Elegance class I am taking from AnnetteJ is so wonderful and I'm trying to keep up with the blocks and I love to hand applique but I am not fast. Oh well, whatever I don't get done for this holiday season can carry over to next year. Have a super Thanksgiving!!!

Hi Sharon, I was reading your response to Catherine's post and I thought about it. You said your cutting mat was warped and you purchased a new one~~Someone, a while back said to use your old mats to cut for purse bottoms to give them stability. I thought that was a neat idea. I have a warped and cracked one somewhere and by the time I locate it Christmas and all the bags I have been making will be gone also. LOL I am so good at putting things up until I need them. Oh well, just a thought while it was with me.

Thank you Sharon - I'm just starting to look at the postings and can see this will be wealth of information for me. Also thank you for the comment on my photo - that was actually taken at Sunset, on Sunset Beach, Oahu Hawaii just two short weeks ago. I was there with my sister celebrating the end of a 3 yr fight (her's) with cancer. Happy to share that she is well and cancer free and we're thinking good thoughts that it will stay that way. Our sunsets are beautiful to you are right.

Sharon: I would love to meet you Tuesday but won't be in town. I have to make a trip to Wenatchee for my dental cleaning appt. I'm thinking I may try to get a while I'm there. Not at the dentist but at the Wenatchee Valley Clinic. I think I'm overdo. Drive carefull as I heard it snow like cats and dogs on Snoqualmie yesterday. Do you know about DOT.WA on line and you can see the camera views of the pass? If not let me know and I'll get you the exact web address.

Sharon: God IS great to create such a wonderful place. Your photos are amazing. I hope you had a great and restful time there. It's one of my favorite places on the planet. Even when its cold and the wind is blowing I love it. I've have been so busy this past week that I haven't had a single minute to email or read any blogs. I want' here on Thurs as I had a PEO meeting and then it was off to spokane to pickup my brother. He's here to take my dad to NC. He going into a facility there. I left the house at 9am and got home at 10:30 that night. Anyway, thank for the photos. They're going on my wall with BJ's yellow chair photo. Hope your trip to CDA was nice and how WAS the pass anway. We are going over to Olympia for turkey day. My first time not to cook in over 15 yrs. Yeah! Well, really want to catch up so will go for now. Thanks for the pictures. They are awesome.
