I didn’t realize that Flickr has a wonderful slideshow feature. Now that I have used it, I really like how it displays my various quilts and other works. The black background really sets off the pictures. Here are the slideshow links to my various work:

Wow, where has this week gone? I’ve been working in the quilt studio this week, and today is no exception. I decided to change up my border design on my current quilt to give my friend, Candy, more options for trimming. I liked the previous design, but the new one is more in balance with [...]

Joe and I spent all day on Saturday and Sunday on the water sailing. After dozens of tacks, jibes, man overboard drills, docking and mooring practice, I am happy to say that both Joe [...]

I remember this place from my last visit. We docked, washed the boat, then walked from the marina into town to grab a bite. The same terrific little Italian food place was still there, and the food did not disappoint.

The time we spent at Carolina Beach (see Marina above) was short indeed! Yvette and Dave’s longtime friend, David, came down to where the boat was tied up with his 2 adorable kids. We all piled into his car and headed over to his restaurant, Ocean Grill and Tiki Bar Restaurant in Carolina Beach, NC. [...]

Wow, time sure flies- it is Saturday already!
Last night, I didn’t feel like cooking, so I could feel a date night was needed. Joe, my DH, had the same idea and we were even thinking of the same restaurant to visit. We both picked an Indian Food restaurant and so off we went.
Only in rural [...]

Time to share my works in progress. I’m making progress on the double wedding ring quilt for my friend, Nancy, who lives in North Carolina. I also mailed off 3 blocks for a group quilt project for a quilter battling a major illness. Today was the cut off date, so I made it under the [...]
