Spent the day yesterday doing some of my computer stuff and finally got some notes on the road trip and calendar done. Double checked this morning and noticed I had the wrong date for Fabulous Flowers in Prescott- it’s the 26th not the 19th! Everything else looks good and I will be adding more as […]
I finally have a chance to sit down and breathe after a few whirlwind weeks. I was fortunate to be invited to an amazing shop in Orillia, Ontario called Thimbles&Things and owned by an awesome lady named Sue! Her shop is a gorgeous, buzzing place filled with lovely quilts, lots of fabric and notions, super […]
I know I have certainly fallen behind in my colouring, but I have to say that it isn’t as much fun to just colour blocks that have been machine embroidered already. I enjoy the stitching as much as the colouring. Hmmm, debating whether to start a new project and do this one all by hand! […]

The next few months will be an interesting excursion into the world of fish….Should be a nice diversion over the summer months. An interesting note, apparently the “ruler” from Block 4 takes two and a half “Nascar” races to embroider (my timing was two hockey games). Thank you Diane for sharing! Here are my tips […]

After the insanity of May here comes the busy-ness of June! I went to a wonderful little show in Renfrew, saw lots of old friends and made lots of new ones. I made up some kits of the more popular projects and still have a few left so I have added them to the web […]
It’s been a little crazy around here designing for the Ontario Row By Row Experience, Northcott Fabrics and some new ideas coming soon. Add to that it’s show season and I have my trunk show at the Arnprior Guild, The Ottawa and Renfrew and Quilt Market shows and a week in Orillia teaching and presenting! […]
Just finished another Stained Glass Quilting Class at The Quilting Quarters with a fabulous group-we had way too much fun and I would love to hang out with them again soon! Great fabric selection made for a new crop of colours! They always look so different. […]
