when we were moving my Sweetie asked me what I would do for friends. He is astute that one, and after thirty-one plus years of married life, he knows me well. I need people, quilters, people. Our two moves happened when the world shut down, my heart yearning and needing friendship had to wait, and … Continue reading Life’s Short, I had dessert first

Sheep and Quilting and a Good Book Quote
When I say I nearly spit eggs on my keyboard when I read, As we were walking down the road, I saw a cloud of white moving off to the side and wondered aloud what it could be. As we got closer, the cloud came into focus, and soon I could see that it was … Continue reading Sheep and Quilting and a Good Book Quote
Connection round 2
It is often during the month of May wherein the memories of the struggle begin to bubble up to the surface serving as gentle reminders of another time. This morning while reading about the Apostle Thomas telling the other Apostles and Disciples gathered once again in the Upper Room, "Unless I see the mark of … Continue reading Connection round 2
Savor the Graces
Luke 17: 11-19 "Get up and go on your way; your faith has made you well." Jesus said this to me as I knelt before Him. Thanking him. Praising Him for healing me of leprosy.

Good God, it’s Friday!

On the door handle is a package of Pirates Booty popcorn hanging … Continue reading Good God, it’s Friday!

I'd like to share with you an interview with Quilter on Fire. Brandy is a wonderful interviewer. I'm a quilter.

While my fluency seems to be in free-motion quilting I'm comfortable enough in art, patchwork, traditional, modern to converse. If I'm uncertain of a term or phrase used I'll ask, because the … Continue reading The Deep End and Defining Terms
Reorganizing, Reading, Reflecting, wRiting
I can't help but realize that Lent starts in on February 17th. Last night while getting ready for dinner and my Faith Sharing group I took my Memento Mori Lenten Devotional from my bedside table and placed it on the dining room table.
