Quilting to a "T"

Good morning!  I love mornings like this, sitting out in the 4 season room with the window open I listening to my new fountain flowing and the sound of the humming birds flying around fussing.  I'm enjoying a cup of coffee and I have a lavender incense burning.  I usually burn one a day and I like to burn my sage stick a lil as well to reduce negative energy before heading down to my studio for the day.  Its a great start to me. I recently had the pleasure to quilt a quilt top for a local quilt shop   The Stitching Nook .  This is a great shop and offers it all, sewing/embroidery machines, fabrics, battings, threads, patterns and some great classes for all phases of sewing.  The quilt I quilted for them is for a upcoming quilt class they are offering soon.  Better sign up fast if your interested.  If I had the time I'd love to take it my self the quilt is beautiful and would look great on my bed.  Time is the issue I am working hard tr...

Good morning my quilty friends! I hope you all had a great weekend. I took a much needed break from the studio Saturday and spent time with my lil grand girls. Sometimes ya just gotta take that break, especially when you are watching them grow up so fast in front of your very eyes. We worked on designing their own t-shirts. They each picked out a design and we added a little flair to the design.  Aunt Teresa came over to join in with us. Ta-Da! After our fashion show we settled down for a relaxing evening by the fire, cooked hotdogs and marshmallows.  We played a game of telephone that had us laughing hard.  I enjoyed the time spent with them, to me it was time well spent in building memories with them while they are still lil. Sitting by a fire is so relaxing to me, helps me to recharge. LESSONS WE LEARN ALONG THE WAY: One of my challenges with starting my quilt business is learning my timeline.  When I was first begi...

Good morning! I'm enjoying my coffee while listening to rain and I can occasionally hear the wind chime that hangs in a small tree in my back yard.  This is a new blog spot for me but you can get to my web page and back from it.  Figuring out how to accomplish that was a lil challenging for me but I took my time and eventually figured it out.  My web builder offers a blog but I just wasn't happy with it and decided to come back to what I like, Blogger.   Please subscribe to my blog for updates and cig you could share it for me. The sun is coming up and I'm going to be heading to the studio soon.  I am working on a stunning quilt for my customer, Nancy.  Once I figured out the border I was ready to hit it.  I'm learning new techniques all the time, each quilt I do brings on a adventure for me.  I am so loving what I do and happy that I get to do what I love.
