I am living in something of a challenging moment. Challenging moments are part of the Journey, they are moments where slow and steady navigation is required. As I logged on to write this morning a couple of memories cropped up. (And competing ear worms more on that later) Our youth group would take a trip … Continue reading Review

A Quilters Heart
I've been thinking a lot about the teaching/learning process. I've been thinking about how I learn and how I teach. I've been thinking about how I think, what I know, the vast amount of stuff I don't know, the things I want to learn so that I can be a better teacher, and a better … Continue reading A Quilters Heart
"If I'd only known" this or that I may have responded differently to, name situation here _________________________.

In a recent email I wrote, "make … Continue reading Liberated Quilting
Good and perfect gifts
God has a sense of humor. I'm sitting in my living room, watching the Yankee game, minding my own business when, "every good and perfect gift" floats through my mind. I know this verse from somewhere, memorized it a long time a go, but for the life of me can't remember chapter & verse. So, … Continue reading Good and perfect gifts
Object-ive
I object. I'm an object. Actually I object to being viewed as an object. I am a person. I am a woman. With thoughts and feelings. With a heart and mind and soul. The thing is, that other person is too. You know the one. The one that was defined as Ugly Strong-willed Stinky Pushy … Continue reading Object-ive
Celebrating Life
This was a first, a wedding and a funeral all in one day. Both celebrations of moments in life that happen. The continuation of life, a new journey together, a life let go.
