A Change of Direction

June 30, 2016

We’re moving back into the house this week so I am writing this early for posting.

Post New Car Buying Stress Syndrome-It’s Real People!

June 23, 2016

Chicago Quilt Festival 2016 and a Hometown Visit

April 14, 2016

Teaching at the Chicago International Quilt Festival was a first-time-through for me. I was excited to be able to teach and to be able to visit with friends and relatives after the show closed.
