Review of 2012
Here’s my review of 2012 (DD#2’s idea), but I’m going to start a few months earlier because I especially like those events. 🙂 So, in addition to speaking and teaching at fifteen quilt guilds in less than two years, writing twelve articles for Quilting Arts during that same time, and making three trips to California…

Shh! Don’t tell Janome
On Monday I told you about the new light I installed on my Janome. What I never noticed until then is what a big shadow is cast by the lever for the needle threader. See that big square shadow to the left of the needle? That big square was there the whole time, even before…

A quilter lives here
My son-in-law was bored today so he came over to our house looking for something to do. No problem! Sweet hubby was already more than half way through installing a new sink in our kitchen, and SIL jumped in to help. My previous sink was an inexpensive fiberglass one that had become very badly scratched,…

Poor RV
Poor sweet hubby! The wind gusts that came through our town about 6 PM tonight blew the roof off his RV. It pulled up the roof for the entire length of the RV on the driver’s side, and it was standing up when we came out of the house. It also tore in half crosswise…

Happy father’s day and thank you
This is one of my favorite pictures of my sweet hubby with our girls when they were little. It was one of their favorite games. Thank you, sweet husband, for being such a good father. Thank you for purposefully being a different father than yours was. Thank you for loving Jesus and for being soft…

Today I must work
Today I must finish this. I’m telling everyone so I’m held accountable! It must be done before I go to bed tonight. This is a small resist experiment I started working on last month. Thankfully I started so early, because I’ve been very distracted these last ten days and it’s due, along with a short…

Relief and grief
It is with much relief that I was finally able to bring my sweet hubby home today after having suffered from a stroke on March 7. He has experienced amazing recovery. Physically, he is able to move his limbs as completely as before. He is able to speak normally and does not seem to have…

New wrinkle
There’s been a new wrinkle, maybe a new fold, in the patchwork of my life. On Wednesday, my sweet hubby had a stroke. He was at a neighbor’s house when, for a minute or two, he lost complete use of his right arm and right leg, and then it went away and he felt fine.…

I’m proud of my sweet hubby
I’m so very proud of my sweet hubby, I just had to brag about his amazing achievement! He has always enjoyed making up and telling fantasy stories to our two girls as they grew up. Several years ago, he felt inspired to write a fantasy adventure story based on the Bible verse, 1 Corinthians 6:3,…

Exile and giveaway
Exile. How sweet the word! Sweet hubby and I decided to exile ourselves this week. Away we flew in Dad’s RV, away to a nearby, not-to-be-disclosed location, away from phones, away from email, away from the rest of the world. We got to our destination, plugged in, and hunkered down. Yes, there was snow on…
