New Kids on the Quiltville Block!

Things in your Organizing World are about to get more QUILTY!

There are a couple of things we have had going on behind the scenes that I haven’t talked about, because I didn’t know when they would finally show up on my door step after many months of waiting!

These two little spiral bound babies may be small in size at only 5’’ x 7’’ but they will make your life SO MUCH BETTER!

Why would you need a hand written password keeper?  Because not all things in life are safe in digital.

Take for instance the password keeper -

Dresden! I’m trying to take photos here!

Do you mind?

When my father-in-law’s health got to such that his 3 sons came together to stay with him and to care for him at the end of his life in the comfort of his own home along with hospice care, it was by necessity that family needed his passwords.

Passwords can be many – no longer is it safe to keep them all the same in case of hacking.  But neither is it safe to have them all on your phone, tablet or computer.

If the phone goes dead and broken (or you do) or it becomes lost - no one can access them without knowing the password for the phone and then a different password to access the password app, and so forth.

While I was in Arizona, one daunting but necessary task at hand was sitting down with my 80 year old dad and updating his living will with me, my sister in law, nieces and nephews in attendance.  

And along with that, we need to know where to find his passwords so we can take care of things for him.

If something were to happen to me, my kids and my husband need to know where to go for my passwords.

They will be found in my password keeper, locked in the safe. (They all have the safe combination.)

What about all of those changing passwords?  I giggled with the quilters on retreat at Quiltville Inn yesterday – here’s a place where those frixxion pens may come in handy!  Just iron the page you don’t want anymore and poof!

Or what about keeping one of your Quiltville Quilty Pencils in the spiral for ready pencil use that is easily erasable?

As for the “This book belongs to” and it has all of your passwords?  Just don’t leave it on the bus! LOL!

You will find my new Password Keeper both in the New and  Gifty Items section of the Quiltville Store priced at only $9.50! 

It also makes a great gift item, so pick one up for yourself – and one for a friend!

This is more than just a coupon keeper!

You can label these pockets however you desire!

There are 16 pockets – and this small 5’’ x 7’’ volume would be great for holding different sizes of needles, fabric swatches, applique pieces, embroidery flosses,  English paper piecing papers, quilting templates and a variety of other needful things.

Each page has one of my favorite quotes – destined to make you smile.

Inside front cover.

Inside back cover – suggestions for categories.

What would you put in these pockets?

You will also find my Quilty Coupon Keeper also in the New and Gifty Items categories in the Quiltville Store, also priced at just $9.50.

The fun has begun at Quiltville Inn with the Pieceful Hearts girls!

They got busy right at the get go – and there is no stopping them!

Paula getting a binding on in the Hen Den!

I came back last evening after dinner to check on things, and settled myself into a comfy chair by the warmth of the wood stove and enjoyed some chat along with my stitching – I was working on a binding myself!  

I love passing the time it takes to hand stitch a binding while in the company of other quilters doing the same.

And I stayed for dessert!

Oh, I wish you could have smelled these apples baking -

The house smelled deliciously wonderful!

Catching Pat a bit animated from where I was sitting!

Lights were on at 6:30am when I arrived!

Quilters were up already!

Check out that moon!

And how often do you see a navy blue sky?

It was almost better than a sunrise.

It may be cold outside -

Temps are dropping and it is supposed to be a brisk 16 degrees overnight tonight.

But the quilters are warm and happy inside!

And as soon as I get my work done at the QPO -

I can go play!

Quiltville Quote of the Day -

For looking past my faults and flaws, for all the time you spend

For all the kind things that you do, thank you my Quilty Friends!

Have a wonderful Valentines Day!

May you find for yourself the gift of time with fabric and thread.
