The Pit
I have my favorite quilt shops. There are a few quilt shops that I connect with. They have many quilts hanging on their walls and they seem to be “my style”. One of those shops is The Cherry Pit in Sevierville, Tennessee. This is my sister, Lynne and me in front of The Cherry Pit […]
Healthy Coffee Perks Me Up
Today has been one of those crazy days already. I have done laundry, marked floor tile samples with new prices, ate breakfast and cleaned the dog’s bed. None of those things were what I had planned except eating breakfast. I find myself gagging in the morning because I wake up so hungry. It is imperative […]
They Go Like Children
Have you ever made things to sell and cried when they sold? I spend almost a day making just one bag. Each one has a special memory attached to it. I am happy when someone wants to spend money and buy one of my bags because I know they must really like it.

I am so excited to have found an online site that fits me. Having all the tech stuff is nice but I have been looking for something similar to a woman’s magazine. I like to thumb through the pages of a current issue of a magazine and now I can do it online. MyLifetime.com is […]

You can have this experience through XperienceDays.com. There are different degrees of experiences and each come with a different price tag. […]
Hancock
I almost forgot to post about our visit to the movies a few weeks ago. We saw Hancock. I enjoyed it. I had heard mixed reviews and so I wasn’t sure if I would be bored. The movie was over before I knew it! LOL In fact, it is one of those movies you need […]
The Best Chocolate
I ate so many donuts last week that I was on a sugar high most of the time. We don’t have a donut shop near us so when that light came on to tell us they were fresh, we got in line to take part in the feast. Another thing I have trouble resisting is […]
Miles of Machines
What do quilters do when they go on vacation? They sew! You should have seen the cabin where we stayed. We had 4 sewing machines sitting on the kitchen table. There was not a spot to sit down and eat a meal. That is how it is at home so why not have it that […]
Special Gifts
One of the most memorable gifts I have ever given was one with a photo involved. Now, you can give photo blankets to those special people in your life. Photo blankets make wonderful gifts for those who are celebrating a special event in their lives. These special blankets are even washable so they are something […]
