Quilt Friend shout out!

I met Lorry when I first started long-arming but at that time it was just a occasional quilt. I believe it was about 4 years ago.  At that time I was still working in retail business and only quilted part time.  I worked for a fabric store and Lorry came in to get some backing and we being quilters clicked right off and was doing a lot of quilt talk, sharing.  I mentioned my friend Deb allowed me the use of her long-arm (purchased my own machine in 2016) and was starting to quilt for others.  Lorry and I swapped info and later met at Star bucks (enjoyed many visits with her here) where she entrusted me to quilt a top for her, then another and another and SEW it began.    Lorry kept my busy for sure.  This was one of those first quilts I quilted for her.  This was one that she made to donate to the v.f.w. She put her trust in me.  Lorry's quilts are always a pleasure to quilt. Today!  We are still quilt buddy's.  We've...

AND DONE!

Good morning!  I'm enjoying a cup of coffee and sitting by the fire place.  Its a electric one but it gives you warmth and feel of a real one and I love it.  I like to use it as a focal point while I do my morning meditation.  Clearing my mind and thinking about my day and what I hope to accomplish.

I'm very please with how this one turned out.  It took me almost two weeks to complete it, but remember in that two week time period we had two holidays.  So it was two weeks but not really.  I enjoyed some down time over the past two weeks.  But now its time ...

What happens in Kentucky...

don't always stay in Kentucky!  So this is how it all happened. I've always loved having a furry lil baby!  But the way I worked before I became quiltin.t it just wasn't a fair life for one.  I was at work 10 hours or plus at times, or out of town working in other stores.  I missed having one badly and one of my goals when I started working at home was to try and have a new furry baby.   I just love the companionship they give, the unconditional love.  If you give to them they will give it back multiplied!  There is just something relaxing and calming having them curl up next to you on the couch after a long day.  Healing powers to some!   My intention was to wait till late spring to find one.  I knew the breed I was hoping to get because of some friends having them and seeing the bond they have with their human parents, I also did some researching.  I know all furry family members can be sweet and cuddly to their human ...
