Pansy Quilt
I have to stay away from the HGTV channel and website. I found this pansy quilt that I know my mom would love. She loves pansies. It looks like this one is a small wall hanging. It shouldn’t take too long to make. Someone tell me to back away from ordering the kit for this. […]
Home Sale Directory
When I retire, I want to look at Phoenix homes for sale. A home in Arizona would let me live close to my mom. That means I could hit all those yard sales she has been telling me about. It sounds like a dream come true. There are no set times for the yard sales. […]

You will want to […]A Colorful Bag
Hubby made it home from his fishing trip and brought the digital camera home with him. Yay! I can finally show you the bag I made on Saturday. Do you think it is bright enough?
Used Price.com
Ok, I’ll admit that I am so jealous of my sister. In fact, I am jealous of both of my sisters. They have sewing machines that do so much. The panel on their machines that displays the type of stitches available is so vast that you would never run out of pretty designs to make […]
Bright Colors
Woo hoo! I finished another bag! I decided that most of the bags I have been making are, while very pretty, very basic and that I need to make some bags that say wow.
I used very bright material for this bag but had not bought enough of one color. Darn. Mom, Greg and I had […]I Can Do It
I profess to be a crafty and somewhat handy person. I can take a pattern and figure out how to make something come together. That is not to say I don’t give my seam ripper a good workout from time to time. The one thing I have not tried but have admired those who have […]
