Saturday, the Fiber Fair was held at Beginnings Quilt Shop and we set up a large booth space with quilts, quilted table toppers and runners, embroidered towels, and small items. The spectacular quilt from Pam B was on display with a placard stating that proceeds would be sent to Interfaith Assistance Ministry. Unfortunately, it did …

Safelight – Celebrate Your Freedom
This week I wanted to use the rest of the surplus of money collected for the Spa Bag project to do something fun for the Safelight Domestic Violence Shelter. I set aside what will be needed for the October delivery of the last spa bags, and found I had just enough to do a special …
Sample Sale
From time to time, I have to decrease the amount of quilted and crafted items in the house or I would be covered up in them. So, time for a sample sale, to move some things into other hands. I have some cards left as well that were not appropriate for Safelight but still fun, …
Sunday Chat – Cards, Dragons, and Mexican Food
As I mentioned on Friday, I have not been sewing in the past month. Instead, I've been spending all my free time (which has been precious little) doing crafting projects. I needed to finish making the cards I wanted to do for the guild show. I didn't do as many as I had planned, but …

Sunday Chat – Stamping and Serging
This past week, I managed to eek out a bit of time for some creative fun, and stamped a few more cards for the boutique. I think I'll stop at 30 to have for sale. The great thing is if they don't sell, I'll have them to use myself. I love this sentiment! Two more …

It has been a slow start to this year's Safelight Project, but we have begun to see some progress this week. I am delighted to report that we have exceeded our revised financial goal in order to deliver 50 spa bags and we will be able to do 60. Any additional funds received over the …
Making Thanksgiving Cards
I got my Thanksgiving cards done on time this year, whoopee! In a fit of stamping frenzy, I made a bunch one morning. Sometimes the inspiration is just there, and with the pretty new papers I got from IOStamps, and a score at a private sale, I had plenty. I got out some leafy prints, …
Spring Projects
With the warming weather, I think many of us get a bit of cabin fever, wanting to do some outdoor activities and spring projects. I thought it was time to hang a Spring Wreath. I made this one a few years ago, and it is still looking good. Spring is a nice time to send …
Safelight Project Update, Something Amazing and Winners!
This past week has been like Christmas with every trip to the post office. More and more cases and cards have come in, so much that the project has way more than it can use for this delivery! So, once again, I'll be doing more bags in a couple of months with the items left …
