A Late Start

It's been since last December that I last wrote.
In that time my step mother had hospice come and on February 7 passed away. She lived a long and blessed 84 years. Had a memorial for her this week with family coming here for the past couple of weeks. 
It was so good to have family come and give Dad support. They had been married 58 years and even though we knew the cancer would take her, it stills doesn't lessen the lost.
Now it will be a change for both of us, no more doctor visits and 24 hour care. And life will return to more normal.

Which means I can get back to a way of life comparable to 3 years before mom found out she had cancer.

I'm going to just share this for now and tomorrow will be a 
"new start"  just a little late.

For Mom

    Big hugs for you and the entire family. While you’re at peace she’s no longer in pain, the loss you feel is immeasurable. My heart goes out to you all.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

I have a lot of bird related patterns, especially ones that are chickens This quilt I made last year from a pattern in Quiltmania. Then here are a few more patterns I had and thought about doing. But time wasn't on my side for a big project.  You see I'm going to see "the little dudes" next week, it's their first birthday. Blake and Ben, my "little dudes" Can't believe it's been a year already. OK back to topic here.  A couple of years ago while at the Dallas Quilt show I purchased this pincushion.   I thought it was interesting but what I really wanted was the pattern. It came from a shop in Texas,...
