Fireweed Gift-Away!


Good morning!

Guess who is back from Iceland?

We had such a marvelous time and I'm looking forward to sharing many of our photo memories with you.  Hopefully you were able to keep up a bit while I was gone through Facebook/Instagram.  

While I wasn't able to blog while I was away, I did my best to keep up with some postings through other social media outlets.

I returned late Monday night - so this morning I'm still recovering from a bit of jet lag by kicking off the release of my Fireweed PDF quilt pattern, along with a Gift-Away!

Iceland In Reverse!


Hey friends!

I'm home from our wonderful Iceland adventures with Craftours!

We had 21 wonderful quilters - No hubbies this time! (I've never had this happen before) plus myself and our Craftours tour manager Tommy.

This was the most relaxing, wonderful trip.

We stayed at the fabulous Foss Hotel in Reykjavik the whole time - and our day trips to different parts of Iceland were geared toward showing us the beautiful nature, as well as focusing on things like the wool industry.

It was a fun and fact-filled adventure, one I'm sure those of us who experienced it will be talking about for a long, long time to come.

Almost Tomorrow!


When I was little I used to count things in the number of "sleeps" left to get to any particular date.

12 sleeps until Christmas.

5 sleeps until vacation.

3 more sleeps until grandma comes.

I have ONE MORE SLEEP until I start my Icelandic adventure!

And no, I am not packed!

Laying Low, Moving Slow -


Hi guys - I'm here to say that I'm moving a bit easier today.

I've done all of the things for my healing back before my upcoming trip to Iceland.

I've taken long hot tub soaks followed by ice packs.

I've rested. LOTS.

I've sat little, I've reclined some.  I've laid flat more than I like.
