About Me

Midway, NC, United States
I retired from Bali Bras, Sara Lee Intimates. Married in Oct 1976. I love meeting new people so hope to hear from you. Drop me a line. I've been doing crafts of all kinds since I was a kid. I loved making things and especially things that are recycled. I had never stamped until 2001 when I went to a stamp class while on vacation. We went to a local store to buy the stamps we had used. OUCH. When we got home I saw a Stampin Up catalog and realized how much money I could save with their stamps and best part as they are sets that go together which makes for easy card making. After doing some thinking I decided I should sign up as a demo and see what happens. I didn't know the first thing about stamping and still learning. Retired from Sara Lee Intimates in Feb 2001. I was in sales after many years, since age 18, as an office person, secretary, office assistant, etc. I am out of Stamping Up since Spring 2017 but still have lots of supplies!!!! These days I'm back to quilting and having a great time.

Just catching up on sewing

Started this 11/27/2018.   Releasing now.  8/30/2019

I have been doing some sewing- quilting since we last met.  Rather than boring everyone with multiple new posts, thought I'd try to list them all.

Grab something to drink while you look at what I've been up to.  Hope you'll take a moment to leave some comments.

It's  been a busy time and I seem much slower at everything.   I'm  caregiver for Mama, 96, 9/21/22.   She is doing great.

I have so been enjoying quilting again.   You know whats funny.  The plan was to start downsizing and use up the fabric I have.   Ha ha.  Of course I needed a little of this and that meaning my stash has multiplied. 

Well I've  made things for me, mama, nap blankets for Pre K classes, Preemie blankets for hospital, lap blankets for seniors, etc.  You guessed it, I haven't made a dent and dents keep filling up with new fabrics too hard to resist.  

That's  the way 2018 has gone....

Here we go.....

I made this quilt I think in 2017.  Recently entered it in our quilt show for the strip side.  It won Honorable  Mention.

My Blog

May, 2009 when I started the blog and it's still a learning experience even in 2017.

If you are ever looking for a retired stamp set, ask me, I might have it and let it go.

As a follower you'll get emails when I post things which I tend to do in batches, once or twice a month once I get back on schedule.

Thanks for stopping by and I appreciate all comments.
