Crescent Dogs and Patriotic Tables
Memorial Day weekend is here, a great time for some finger food to watch the auto races on Sunday, or to take to the park for a picnic, or pack in a warmer to go hiking. Even if you are staying home, the weather looks nice here for a meal on the veranda. This tablescape …
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.

A Card for Mother’s Day
Normally I would show the card I made for my MIL before Mother's Day, but she reads my blog and I didn't want her to see it until she got it in the mail. The idea here can be modified for any holiday or occasion, just change the sentiment. I decided on yellow when I …
Quick Trip to Chattanooga
Last week another opportunity came up to take a really fast trip with DH. He had a small job to do in Chattanooga, driving over one day and back the next. It was too good to pass up, so again I packed a bag and tagged along. We drove over in the morning, and there …
Spring Chicken Tablescape and some recipe ideas
I promised a chicken inspired tablescape using the neat chicken planter I got in Myrtle Beach, and here it is! I did seriously look for some chicken plates, LOL, but not to be. Still, the spring green placemats look good with the green on the planter. I do have some chicken napkin rings, so they …
