UPDATE Another prayer request for our prayer warriors. Tuesday, I took my Mom to ER because she had uncontrollable nausea and vomiting so was also dehydrated. She is doing better in that aspect and will probably be discharged tomorrow. But, one of th
Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! My hints paid off because I got a renewal to Cute for a present! Have a blessed day.
What a difference a week made. Sunday we were able to have Sophie's birthday cookout with burgers and hotdogs on the grill. As long as we were in the sun we were comfortable (all except the great grandparents. One still had her winter coat and gloves
This is from my bedroom window today April 16. Not snow this time, but sleet and ice. Everything is shut down because the roads are so treacherous. Even church was canceled this morning. Not once has it been closed all winter. But now when spring is

I want to thank everyone for their kind words and prayers on the lose of my sweet Abbie. It seems pretty minor compared to all the trials others are going through right now. But I have made it back into my sewing room today - I haven't accomplished muc
My heart is breaking. Little did I know when I read about Gracie yesterday, that I would be doing that very thing this morning. My faithful companion of 16 years Abbie (my dog) woke me up this morning crying in pain and unable to walk.......
This question is for those who have a multi-needle machine. My husband surprised me today and asked me to get all the information I could about multi-needle embroidery machines- Pros-cons. What can they do that is an improvement over my Husq Ruby? I hav
Back to wonderful cuties for more suggestions. The local artisan market that I belong to helps support families that are dealing with Alzheimer's. They are holding an auction to help fund their program and are asking vendors for donations. I have been
Question/advice. I have a client that is making this quote into tabletop banners. In making this one, I used three layers of lightweight tear away stabilizer. It came out with just a little puckering but took forever to take the stabilizer out. I thou
