Gal Time






This house at Bodega Bay is so big and quilting friendly! I think the owner's might faint if they saw how we transformed the lovely entry into a staging area, the beautiful dining room into a classroom and the walls into design walls, oh yeah, 5 quilters on holiday. The drive over was Mr. Toad's wild ride with a storm like a bucket drop and a upset stomach to boot. It's all good now and we have had sun glorious sun while Chico and Paradise have a typhoon. Much laughter and thread. A much needed rest from the Chico remodel and such fun to be with good gals full of talent and spice! Woohoo!

Craft Hope for Haiti


Yes that is what we need to do. Please go read this blog http://crafthope.com/ and do what you can to donate to the Etsy program for donations to Doctors Without Border. I couldn't get the html to work to add the gadget, but thought it was worth posting to spread the word.

Almost A Post


Hello gals. Well, each day I think of a good story to tell you and then poof...the day shoots by and I don't post...so now that I am back on a decent schedule of work and home (no the remodel is not done yet and I am getting crazed with the contractor and not in a good way :) I am getting ready to go to a great getaway vacay to the northern California coast at Bodega Bay (you know, where they filmed the classic Alfred Hitchcock The Birds) with 4 friends to sew, sew, sew!! I am sorting projects and dreaming up all the finishes I will attempt while there. Almost a week of sewing in a beautiful home near the ocean...who cares if they say it might rain. We are sewing. Hooray! And steering clear of large groups of birds.
