About Me
I have worked at Connecting Threads since August of 1995 - I started when I was really young :). Over the years I've had many jobs and many titles, my current title is Director of Connecting Threads (unoffically I'm known as the Fabric Diva and I'm not sure if it's because I'm in charge of fabric or if it's because I'm really bossy). Outside of work I like to of course quilt, knit, read, and do wool applique. My husband and I have a little boy named Tyler and a cat named Barkley.
Hobbies and Interests
quilting, applique, embroidery, knitting, gardening
My pets are awesome!
One big furry beautiful cat named Barkley

My little helper!

Posted on October 26, 2012 at 6:30am 4 Comments

Boy, I sure don’t know how I got anything done before my son came along. At three he is in the “helping” stage and wants to help with EVERYTHING. God forbid any one flushes the toilet or throws anything in the trash themselves because apparently those are his jobs. Quilting, it seems, is not exempt from his help. I was trying to get my Autumn Berries Table Runner, from the book My…

Spring Cleaning in Fall

Posted on October 19, 2012 at 6:00am 6 Comments

I have been meaning to “spring clean” my sewing room all year but kept putting it off. I thought maybe if I just bit the bullet and did it then it might jump start my holiday sewing. So I dug everything out of the walk-in closet --man can you cram a LOT of things in a small walk in closet! It was like a magician’s hat, stuff just kept coming out. Pretty soon I had enough stuff strewn haphazardly over the bed that I could have probably opened a quilt store.  Then I was in a cleaning frenzy -…

It’s October and Halloween is fast approaching. I just pulled out and dusted off my Halloween decorations and found my Through the Seasons Autumn Table Runner. I had forgotten how cute that pattern is! I did my to test the pattern so I don’t have it in our cute …

Stick em up Snowman

Have I mentioned that I LOVE snowmen? Well I did indeed once again prove that fact. I was flipping through the book Stash Happy Patchwork and I came across this picture of sheets and pillowcases that had decorative hexagons paper pieced to them (see below) and from that I ended up with the idea to make a…

Hi Teri!

Did you see my post?  I got a new computer today and I can post everywhere!  It's still a mystery why F & F was my only problem before but I'm back in business!  Thanks!

Thanks, Teri!

Help Teri!  I've been a member of Fast and Furious forever but the last few weeks I can't leave a comment.  All other groups are fine but on F & F, I can type in the comment box but the Add Comment button doesn't work.  I even tried to leave the group and rejoin but no luck.  Can you check with someone who can help.  Thanks a bunch!

Teri,  I guess we went different ways this last year but I did want to wish you and your family a wonderful  Christmas.  Your little guy is very young anymore or little for that matter.  He will be so cute this year.  Have a great New Years.  Ada

not sure if it is just me....but how is this Harry Burnett guy allowed to advertise on CT? I can understand one post mentioning his business as others do but these repeated ones are annoying and clearly commercial.Thanks for listening!

Oh he is getting so big, he looks like a big boy.  I agree kids do say the darnest things.  I wish I would have written down some of the things my kids said, because you do forget them.  Enjoy him, they grow way to fast.  My baby will be 18 on the 29th.
