YIKES!!!!

Wow, what does one do when their computer is down? It is a funny feeling, it feels as if you have been left out of part of the world, and that world keeps going on without you and your posting.
SO….
Thank Heavens I have a brother who can take a computer, take it apart, put it back together and it works and runs better that before!! He is the best!!! A huge thank you to my little brother!!
BUT…
I did get some things done.
When I sell fabric from my eBay and etsy stores I only have to charge sales tax for my state; for some reason, the state of Illinois wants their money!! It took many hours and many days to prepare the report, get that done and paid.

Glad to have that finished!! At least for another year!!!


Next, my family put me lock-down until I finished Emily’s quilt top. I am delighted to say it is done!! Now, to baste, hand quilt and bind a king size quilt. Now worries!! But my daughter reads my blog so I cannot show you a picture. Sorry…..
But here is a reminder of the fabrics


Since I finished the Wedding quilt top, I decided to treat myself to a new project! I have been thinking of this quilt for some time. I love Japanese fabric and now have collected a nice stash!

At first I was going to border the prints in white, but did not care for the all white look. Then I was going to border them in colors, but I thought it took away from the print; I finally settled on several pretty yellow fabrics.

So, I just started to play!
This is what I have so far….

Oh how I wish I had more of this kerchief fabric!!

Can you read what the saying says? It says,” A was an Apple Pie bit cut dealt, eat!” I love how they interpret our language.


This will be an on-going work in progress.


I have many, many emails and blogs to go through, please to not be insulted if I do not get a chance to reply.
Just know that I missed you and am glad to be back!!
