I’ll Be Back
Hubby and I took a few days off and headed to Lake Tahoe. I hope to return rejuvinated and relaxed. Til next week….
Still Writing…And Piecing
Yes, I’m still writing-it seems like forever now. I am excited about what I am writing but this is a lot of work. Lucky me though, I got to take an afternoon off to go to the Bay Area and see my son and DIL! Isn’t that lovely? She planned for an afternoon of cruising […]
Still Writing…
As I thought about what to write about this week I realized that much of what I’ve been doing is making samples for my book and writing. I thought I’d share a short post on what it feels like to write a book. I’ll bet what I am experiencing is almost predictable-the ups and the […]
California State Fair-2017
I get excited about the California State Fair! I love state fairs and think I’ve been to Fairs in 6 states. It’s perhaps a cheesy, expensive and dying event, but how can you resist fried food, blazing heat and every type of person in one place? It is almost always unbearably hot since it’s held […]
Meet the Teachers
I’m still writing my book which makes for a dull girl! I did get out to the Northern California Quilting Council‘s Meet the Teachers event in Pleasant Hill, Ca last Saturday. We are very fortunate in California to have 2 major organizations that bring teachers together with the shops and guilds that might be interested […]
Tough Week
I am blessed with exuberant health, something I do all I can to maintain. I am just now recovering from 10 days of itchy, oozy, outrageously strong allergies. It was allergies, trust me. And I’ll spare you the details, but I couldn’t talk, think or sleep for many days. But, I am back and it […]
Yes, I’m Late!
I have so little to show! I’m working on my book, so spending lots of time on that, none of it photo-worthy. And the projects for the book, well they can’t be published. I’ve got a short post here as a result. I have some great teaser photos…and a new computer, hence the delay. A […]
Focus on Fiber 2017
“Focus on Fiber” is a national juried open fiber arts show that accepts all fiber techniques and is housed at the Sacramento Fine Arts Center. It is showing in conjunction with the Korean Fiber exhibit that I wrote about last week. It was an interesting show given its variety in technique, form and fiber. I […]
Korean Voices in Fiber at the Sacramento Fine Arts Center
I completely forgot it was Thursday-sorry for the late post! I am running as fast as I can… Today I am writing about the Korean fiber exhibit, but please note that there is a fabulous and concurrent annual exhibit “Voices in Fiber”. I am simply unable to cover both in this post, so look for […]
Markers, Chemicals and Our Quilts
Almost two years ago I wrote my most popular post-a comprehensive explanation of Frixion pens, the heat erasable pens. For some reason there has been a huge flurry of repostings lately along with comments from readers about their experiences. You can read the post here if you’d like. I contacted the manufacturer when I wrote […]
