I’m a simple woman…at least that what my DH (Dear Husband) used to say about me…I was a wife, I am now a widow, mother, step-mother & step-grandmother, quilter, and have a full time job in criminal justice. I lost my DH on May 22nd, 2011. I live in a small town in Texas. I love piecing quilts, I love quilting quilts. I have a serious addiction to fabric. I’ve been quilting since 1998, and purchased my first longarm, a Gammill Premier, in 2004. I upgraded to an A-1 Elite, named Corky, in March, 2007. I am in the process of rebuilding my life after losing my spouse.

I hope you enjoy visiting my blog and would love to hear your comments. Thanks for stopping by!

I finished one today!

I got the binding finished on this little baby quilt today.  Yea!  One down, one to go before Monday.  This is the first time I tried a wavy border, and I am pleased with the results.

I’m especially tickled with how well it matches up when folded (it really doesn’t take much to excite me).

I came home from work today, and got my garden plants all watered, and then I fried some fresh zucchini squash, and sliced some home grown tomatoes for dinner.  Yum!  Now to get that blue & yellow log cabin bound….

Hello world!

Well, I’m stepping out of my comfort zone and starting a new blog.  I’ll start with a pic of my latest baby quilt, to see if I can get the hang of this new space.  I just need to get the binding on.  This quilt will be offered for sale in my friend’s salon/boutique. I used my Quilt EZ Contemporary BF templates, and I must say, I loved them.  Very fun to use and I really like the way the quilting looks.

Well, that’s all for my first post.  Hope you will come back!
