As we come into fall, it seems like it will be easier to have projects finished and fabric out. Do you have more time to sew in the fall? It seems like I do, or maybe it is only because it is my favorite season and I am more inspired. With Fall Fortnight coming, I'll …

Stashbusters December
Time again for our Stashbuster reporting. It is the last one of the year, but the final year end report will be in January, so your sewing in December counts for this year. Then we will start over again. As the challenge is to complete things for gifts, or to use, this is a great …
Stashbusters November
Believe it or not, it is time again for Stashbusters! How'd you do last month? There is only one rule, report as ‘out’ only what is completely finished, quilted and bound.

Stashbusters March Check In
It's check in day for Stashbusters! How did you do this month? Was there progress on your projects? Did the sale table call to you? I was pretty good, purchasing a new ruler at my local quilt shop, and resisting the pretty new fabrics. At least for now, LOL!! For new readers, every month we …
Piddling
My sewing recently has been sporadic, with a couple of projects in the works. This one I began before last Autumn Jubilee, and put aside as I just couldn't come up with a good idea. The bird panels are not that big, so they will need some kind of alternate block to fill out the …
