I have no pictures to share this week. It was a really crazy week, with an unexpected family emergency in the middle of it. I still managed to give the house a deep cleaning and, on Saturday night, after cleaning the kitchen and baking and cleaning up again (repeat two more times in that same… Continue reading To-Do Tuesday 5-24-16 | Last Week of School

To Do Tuesday 7-7-15 | Finished Quilt top and a Tutorial
This last week has been a very productive week for me! I finished the Aurifil 2013 Designer of the month quilt top.

To-Do Tuesday 6-16-15 | Sugar Block Club

To-Do Tuesday 1-19-15 |Back in Business
My Precious is feeling much better after getting her new thread take up/check spring installed. I was very fortunate in that Mister put the tension knob assembly back together exactly as it was before. Which means that I had no tension adjustments to make! My settings are all the same as before, and what a… Continue reading To-Do Tuesday 1-19-15 |Back in Business
TUTORIAL: Convert Your Ironing Board to a Pressing Board
Last week I decided that I had enough of struggling with ironing my quilt top or my quilt backing or my quilt batting on my ironing board. That pointy end that is great for ironing clothes? Not. Designed. For. A. Quilter. The soft, squishy top of the ironing board? Not. Designed. For. A. Quilter. So,… Continue reading TUTORIAL: Convert Your Ironing Board to a Pressing Board
