A touch of Holland

Yesterday at our quilt meeting at the show and tell, we do this after every business meeting, I let them peek at my quilt. I was exciting to see how many ooh and ahh I got. That was very nice of them. Very sweet group of ladies and the applause too, twice. I guess the verdict is in, I need to publish the pattern for this quilt. I name it " A Touch of Holland", for my grandparents who are dutch.

Twilight

Is there anything out there to replace my addiction to the Twilight series? I notice that I seem to keep going back to read some of my favorite lines over and over again.
Maybe I should get busy and go back to sewing again and make a quilt base on the twilight drama! . Have not done any major project since I start reading the books. Not enough waking hours to sew, read, hike, keep the house clean, time with the girls (movies, lunch, talk etc) , shopping, work..... you know what I mean? And the poor dog... I don't pay enough attention to her, my precious baby.

Twilight saga

Been having fun reading the twilight saga. I am on my 4Th and last book. What a blast. I turn from a silly Evanovich book to another kind of saga. I like it much better but soon it will end. I delay picking up this series because I thought only young adults with get the story until more and more people were telling me to READ IT..... My 4Th book is more then half read. I am slowing down a bit since I don't wanted to end. Good writing by Stephenie Meyer and I have her new book "the Host" waiting in my bookshelf for me to sink my teeth into it. The sad part and difficult part, I have not visit my sewing room or a quilt shop since I start reading.... maybe I do need to slow down in the reading department. You should see my yard.... very sad looking too. All because a vampire felt in love with a human..... go figure.

New Janet Evanovich Stephanie Plum Series

Just finished reading the 15th book of Janet Evanovich. It was disappointing and blah to say the least. The story line has no real focus, nothing scary or dramatic. And the romance, where is the romance between Stephanie and who 's turn is it? Very disappointing. I am not so sure if I am going to continue anticipating the next one. So now going to focus back on quilting. Just purchased a huge table with organizing drawer from IKEA. Actually is in the kitchen department, an small island with 12 drawers, and when I re-visit Bonnie Hunter website, she have one too. I know smart people when I see one....thanks for the site Bonnie. And I am actually try her quilt block behind her by the machine ready to be quilt. Mine is only a block, just wanted to test the colors, orange, rose pink, blue, and dark brown.... came out really nice, very civil war kind of look.
