Sometime after Jen Fulwiler posted this video on Instagram I downloaded the Hallow app. Hang with me here friends this will have the Teri Lucas quilting winding thing happening. I'm still working my way through St. Francis de Sales Introduction to the Devout Life, sometimes I pause the reading because I need to think and … Continue reading A different look

Of Lavender Skies
Before I dig into that which is on my heart this morning I bring you Jen Fulwiler talking about the Hallow App. She is hilarious and this is, by far, one of the best promotions for product I've seen in a long time. The app itself is cool too. https://www.instagram.com/p/CW3flHVJFEW/ The Front Porch. Of all … Continue reading Of Lavender Skies
Getting Unstuck
If you read TerifiCreations I shared a lot about Get Unstuck with Jen Fulwiler. The thing that was hardest for me but proved the most beautiful was accepting and asking for help. Even before Get Unstuck I'd made the decision to make a class this last week even knowing that I'd be taking two days … Continue reading Getting Unstuck
It’s Not All About Me
Like so many others who quilt or create there is a strange dichotomy lived wherein I want to both hide under the table and never have my work seen until I am a posthumous hit; but also have my work seen as though I'm dancing through a torrential storm with great glee, face up, pelleted … Continue reading It’s Not All About Me

The temps and humidity level are simply delightful, and the coffee tastes so much better As usual I'm flitting between three books, and am about to … Continue reading Retreat Coming Soon
An Oddly Titled Faith in Quilting Post
Good morning friends, it's been a while. Whew. My head is overfull of ideas and sometimes that makes it hard to get anything done. Seriously. I'd like to share with you an interview with Quilter on Fire. Brandy is a wonderful interviewer. I'm a quilter. Quilting, creativity is as much a part of my being … Continue reading An Oddly Titled Faith in Quilting Post
A Different Perspective
Intertwined A long time ago, in a far away place we went on prayer days once a month as a general rule. These were, at first, part of our agreement with the ministry we were serving with. When we left that ministry and entered into service with another we kept that as part of our … Continue reading A Different Perspective
The Deep End and Defining Terms
As a long time quilter I'm generally comfortable within the quilting language itself, and within said language a lot of the dialects exist. 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
Changing Prayer
If there is one person in Catholic circles I'd love to interview right now Elizabeth Scalia would be that person. Lest this seem a total fangirl post it is and it's not for when someone writes about themselves presenting the dumbass things they do it would be her. I can be a bit of a … Continue reading Changing Prayer
