So many UFOs…

I finished making 12 blocks for the next All Our Quilts block exchange and have now moved that project to my UFO (unfinished objects) pile….

Snap Art 2

I, for one, am frankly tired of looking at my fabric stash on the home page and decided to play with Alien Skin’s latest version of their Snap Art plug-in for Photoshop…this is a snapshot of our house after an abundant season of rain.

Change has arrived!

I actually reorganized “the cave” a couple of months ago and finally got around to taking some pics. It is so much easier to navigate and everything is just a chair roll away. I love having my cutting board and iron in the same room now.

Time for a Change

The last two days of weather have been wonderful as a hint to Spring’s impending arrival. Unfortunately, today and tomorrow we’re doing a back slide into cold weather again with a chance of some more snow. But enough about weather. I only mention it as the last two days have resulted in a killer case of spring fever for me. I spent yesterday cleaning and my brain is still spinning with more cleaning projects…First on my list…the CAVE. Here’s a peak.

More Winter

Arrgh…ground hog was dead on. They’re predicting more snow for Friday. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy snow…that is before the snow plows and vehicles get to it. And here in the midwest, we haven’t gotten anywhere near the volumes the northeast has experienced this year. It’s not the snow itself and certainly not the amount I’m whining about…it’s the ugly brown stuff in stale piles all over town I can do without. We finally got rid the last batch with last weekend’s unbelievably warm weather. Here we go again…

Quilt Block Mania

Haven’t posted much lately as I’ve been so darn busy at the sewing machine. Got 6 more blocks to make for a block  exchange and trying to work two other projects at the same time. Poor Navajo Nation remains a UFO (unfinished object).

Transparency

Wow! So far President Obama is keeping his word on transparency. WhiteHouse.gov is listing all the executive orders signed and memoranda issued by President Obama with links to the documents signed.

White House has a website

I  knew the White House had  a new website the moment Obama took office but I forgot to check into it…there’s so much to look at…plan to spend some more time on it tomorrow and think I’ll be a regular visitor!  Thanks to bittbox for tweeting site link!

Inauguration Day

It’s finally arrived. I’ll be spending the day trying to be productive while glued to the television! For the first time in many years, I feel hopeful about our country despite the current financial and world conditions.
