Update. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers for our traveling to pick up my daughter in New York. We missed the snow the entire trip. We saw lots of cars, trucks and semi-trucks in the ditches but we had good weather. We picked up Anna an
Asking for prayers. As some of you know, my youngest daughter ran off to New York and married a guy she met online. We have been trying to reconcile but things haven't been going well. Today, out of the blue, she called and wants to come home along wi
I am so excited. Feel like a kid at Christmas. I am of Swedish and Dutch heritage. Since I live in a community where most everyone has at least a little bit of Swedish ancestry, the Swedish part of me usually wins out. My Dad was a very talented carpe
I want to give a big thank you to Vicki at Basketkase for all her help with a project of mine. I needed an enlarged logo for a customer and Vicki did a wonderful job on enlarging it. Her logo actually stitched out better than the original. The customer

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.

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
Opening day of our local baseball team last evening. We must be crazy. Or loyal fans. Two days ago they had to clear all of the snow off the field and seats. Even dressed warm and wrapped in blankets, my toes were frozen. Despite it only being 32F we
This is what I woke up to this morning. If you look at the trees in the distance that look blurry, it's because it is still snowing! Very unusual for this time of year. I remember as a child asking my Dad if there was ever snow on his birthday(6 April
The first big multicolor design I tackled with my new 6 needle Babylock Intrepid. This is the machine I finally decided to go with after considering everyone's advise. I am excited to learn all about it. I actually learned a lot with this Cute design.
One of the items I made for the Alzheimer's fund raiser next month. I also put a couple of books with it. Thank you to whomever suggested the reading pillow!
