P.S.A for the day

Dearest friends, do not attempt to adjust your in-ear headphones whilst holding a seam ripper in one hand. Love, Mandy   p.s. this goes along with the P.S.A. “never put your seam ripper in your back pocket.”

Inspiration from a dear friend

A good friend of ours from college, Jeff, sent me a cryptic note on facebook the other day, that he’d found something for me, and merry-early-Christmas.  I had *no* idea what he was talking about, but kept an eye on the mail, as requested.  Jeff and I had been talking about how I look to […]

pictures this week

Lake George in the Adirondacks has been called the “Queen of Lakes”.  We went out on it for the first time this week on a friend’s boat, and it was… an amazing 2 hours.  Beautiful clear water (we could see down to about 25 feet), perfect skies and mountains, and campsites all along the lake […]

Valances to be made… pondering color options

Unfortunately, the grey flowers from the line didn’t work at all with the blue, and the sapphire didn’t, either.  What do you think?  Similar, yet… not.

My class on Saturday

I had a great time with my first class this weekend!  I came prepared to talk about a variety of techniques used to take a traditional block and transform it into something more modern, but the ladies really wanted to make my “Modern Spin” pattern.  We had a great time talking about Log Cabin construction […]

tiny pieces

Well, not *too* tiny.  The green strips will finish up at a half-inch wide, and I confess that this will be something like mumblefivemumble quilts that I’ve made with these tiny strips.  Posted two examples here and here. I can’t get enough of them; because I just love how crisp they look. I can’t help […]
