A Drop In Trunk Show!


Amazing things happen in the most unusual ways!

I met Debbie (on the left) several years ago when she was still living in New Jersey.  She came down to Bedford, Pennsylvania when I was teaching my summer workshop series with Mary Koval.

Little did I know that she would pull up stakes and fund herself living in Garden Valley, Idaho - right where my mom lives!

I received a text message the night that I arrived letting me know that their guild meeting was happening the next morning at 10am.

Home And Moving Slowly!


As much as I'm worn out after travel to Idaho and back to visit my mom and stepdad -

Let's triple that with the addition of my mom's two sisters (My aunties!) and a visit from son Jason in the mix!

The weather could not have been more perfect - Spring in Garden Valley/Crouch Idaho is scenic and wonderful and everything is still green yet - for a couple more months or so.

A Week with the Bonniacs!


Hi Everyone!

I knew I said there would not be blogging while at my mom's but I have time to get at least these photos out to you - 

Mom's out in the garden watering and we are leaving soon to go pick up her two sister's at the airport and things are about to get crazy here, but for now I have some calm and quiet.

And these quilts deserve to be shared!

A Weekend At Play!


Is there any better way to start a Monday than with a gorgeous array of Moonflower blocks from our retreat workshop?  Just look at these beauties!

Everyone just did the BEST job and I love how they have taken their colors and shadings into their own direction for what are likely to be some fantabulous Moonflower quilts!

My hope is that they will bring them as assembled tops (if not quilted and placed on their beds!) for next year's retreat.

Wouldn't it be gorgeous to see them all over the porch rail?
