I have been working on this recipe for quite some time trying to get it just right. I usually make a recipe at least three times before I share it with you. DH doesn't really mind being the taste tester. I have made this one now several times, each time tweaking this or that, …

Driving the Devil’s Whip
Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day, warm and clear, the best time to take a car club drive. This time the drive leader had us meet in Swannanoa for an event that was supposed to be two weeks ago, but was postponed. We drove as a group from Swannanoa to Old Fort, and then formed …
Angel Quilt
Recently, a friend of mine gave me this sweet fabric. It isn't a panel, but it has squares with angels playing in their gardens. The soft greens and yellows with the printed purple sashing is just a charming color palette. There are three angel designs in the fabric. Initially, I thought it would be a …
Garden Jubilee 2017
Memorial Day weekend is the annual Garden Jubilee in Hendersonville, the largest annual plant show and sale in the western North Carolina area. We go most years, and this year I was on the hunt for more perennials, and I really want a clematis for the lattice in the front garden bed. Local nurseries and …
Reflections on an Early Morning
Sometimes I am up really early in the morning, and have the wonderful opportunity to witness the sunrise over the mountain to the east.

Applique Quilt Repair
Repairing a well loved quilt is one of the things I really enjoy doing. Sometimes a quilt is just used to the point of falling apart, and really, what better tribute to a wonderful quilt than for the owner to wear it out? I'd much rather see that than a beautiful quilt wrapped in tissue …

Eagle Panel Quilt of Valor
Continuing on with the Quilts of Valor for the Grand Strand Quilters, the next one is a panel with an eagle in the center surrounded with borders. The backing provided was a dark blue. Once again, the borders are a bit full, and I suspect that they were not measured. The cornerstone blocks are not …
