Welcome to my blogs, where I work to inspire and motivate others. I love sharing the art of quilting with others. I also love living a meaningful, healthy life, and teaching my children to do the same. Join me here to find out what works for me, and how you can use it in your own life!

Ge Designs and Comforts of Home Update

The Comforts of Home block of the month is sitting in my dining room/quilting room. Each section is completed, and it is ready for the wool, which I am patiently (OK, not so patiently) awaiting to arrive so I can add the appliques. Pictures will be added as soon as I get it! This block of the month will begin as soon as the sample is completed.

A few weeks ago, Gudrun of GE Quilt Designs so nicely talked about me in her blog. You can read her blog at:

Here you will find her upcoming patterns, design process, and more. I love her patterns, so it is great to get a sneak peak at what is coming next!

New Charms Idea - Neptune Necklace



I've posted before about the new site, Moda Bake Shop, that gives great ideas for using all of Moda's precut fabrics. Here is one we tried at the shop that I love!


This fashionable necklace features charms from a Neptune charm pack. Of course, you can make it from any charm pack for a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelery. This is a great kid's project, and one charm pack will make several. Or, make a bracelet to match! You can find the directions for this project here: http://www.modabakeshop.com/2009/03/neptune-necklace.html


The colors and prints in this charm pack are great. Makes me wish I had ordered the line in, but I just can't get them all! Believe me, I would if I could!
