you know I seldom
look at names or dates...
just the beauty

look for Miyuki
(I think )
on Pinterest
great little quilts
from Cheri and Jan Patek patterns






the old fabrics are still my faves too

I treasure my pink stripe fabric


ordered a new couch last week...
unfortunately not this one though


Today Mom said for sure she is stitching
tomorrow...
not holding my breath
as long as she is having a good day
she can do whatever...

after we visit Dad
(some days she needs encouragement)
that means laundry
the dishes
talking to the cats
looking through quilt books

    I am lucky enough to be able to call the very talented Miyuki a fond friend of mine, have know her since Calico Station, my quilt shop, days......I would send her home with fabrics & pattern for a shop sample and she would be back the very next with it hand pieced & quilted!!!!
    even named one of my quilt shop cats after her!!!
    very sweet and incredibly creative.......

    The quilts are always so breathtaking!!!!!! Gosh, I wish I had the patience and the talent.
    I took a look at that couch and my eyes nearly bugged out!!!! I thought "YOU GO KELLEY"!!!!!! Then I read this is not the one you ordered. This is the one you should have ordered. LOL. You only live once.

    I think that couch is lovely, but wouldn't be good for a nap.

    Hope the one you get is perfect!
