Kindle


Should I buy Kindle or do you think is ridiculous how much they want for that stuff. Plus the books... and the cover for that thing. Maybe in a way we are saving tree from being cut down to make paper? People still going to buy books and paperbacks eventhought maybe in 10 years we all going to have Kindles and it would be as normal as carrying a cell phone. Ah my long wishlist keeps getting longer.

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.

Publishing pattern

I am working on publishing my first quilt pattern.
Hint: its blue and blue and some more blue and a smidge of yellow...Its base on Marti Michell kaleidoscope technique. And very easily done using paper piecing techniques. I am working with the famous Rebecca Ruth Design. Hope she can guide me in the right direction. I am very excited and enthusiastic with this particular journey. Hope you will see my pattern in your favorite quilt stores soon. I don't know how long it takes from the process of writing and testing the pattern to actually sending to the printer and then to the quilt stores. I will keep you posted.

Pebble


The name I chosed for my site is actually my dog's name. She is a miniatuare black schnauzer. She is 6 years old and goes to work with me.

Quilt nine patch and dots


This is my latest un-finished quilt. Bought the kit from Sisters in Centralia, WA. Love the look so much that I actually took the picture of the quilt sample in the store to make sure I got the right arrangement of the blocks. Not quiet done yet. Still waiting for me to finish.

Adrenal fatigue

Simple test to check your adrenal status. First thing in the morning, drink a 4 oz of water with a pinch of salt. If you feel energized, you need adrenal support.
