Happy New Year and best wishes for 2010. The New Year has started and with it a new decade. My start was quite different this time around. I spent New Year’s Eve on my own,. Woke up at 12:01 when the neighbors lighted some fireworks. Went back to bed, and woke up really early to…
Merry Christmas from Calgary! This is the view from my window on Christmas Day, early in the morning. We had a wonderful time. The three kids were home on Christmas Eve, they came early to help cook and prepare for the evening. I picked Sabrina up at her friend’s at 10:00 a.m. and we went…
OK, let’s see if this works better. I have uploaded the images first, and will type in between! I have been working on the yellow tulips that are painted on the quilted background I showed you on the last blog. Once that was done and prepared, I marked the tulips on the background using a…

I am very happy to report that I have been confirmed to once again teach at Quilting in the Trees in Victoria, in June 2010. This year was my first year teaching there, and I loved it. The setting is perfect, at Pearson College, rustic but very comfortable. The food was very nice (and they…
Good evening, I need to let you know that I am still getting used to this “blogging” and it seemed to me the other day that my blog was acting temperamental. I couldn’t really do what I wanted to, so … that’s why the first blog looks the way it does. I have since found…

I have been clearing my studio in preparation for the move, and decided I need to get rid of some of the older fabric (still 100% cotton, high quality) to make room for the new.
