Well I have come to mark time, not in minutes but in small vignettes..The small hour before I leave for work to just breath, The 8 hours of work, my after work time..home doing what I can as far as sewing and my Farmville2..yes Im a gamer from way back starting with my atari !! :) If I were to consider time in small increments I think I might be a bit crazy (however I am but that's another story!!). I find with age comes wisdom, and only through aging can we become wise. The wisdom I have to impart today is just be!! Rushing through this or that only puts you in a rush and how can you enjoy the little things if your always rushing.
Today I received a prize I won on http://evapaigequiltdesigns.blogspot.com/2013/07/a-midsummer-nights-giveaway.html It's her Quilting Hottie Haven Blog! Opening my mailbox and finding my package made my day and it's these small moments I speak of. I revel in the feel of fabric..the smell of spray starch, and the push from my cat as I sit in my chair as he head butts me when he jumps on the arm of my chair!!
You know the old saying "Stop and smell the Roses" well you just might find something amazing if you do.. and even if you don't find anything in particular at least you have stopped to take a breath and just be!!

My first Post!
So this is my first blog! I have been a quilter, sewer, cook,reader and lover of all things fabric for many moons. I decided to do this blog since I love the ability it gives me to connect with others like me!! I know there isn't much here yet, but bear with me as I research and add info along the way!
I find the most gratifying thing in life is to piece together a quilt and have something tangible in the end!! Most of my quilting efforts have gone to others..for new arrivals (babies), weddings etc. I am presently in a group of awesome ladies doing a QAL called Aiming for Accuracy and believe me it has been a learning experience. If you wish to join in this awesome endeavor the link will be put up as soon as I figure how to do so LOL!! This is a new medium for me and I am looking forward to learning from you and passing on info and fun facts to you as I go along!! Now on a lighter note I will Thank the spell check Goddess!! :)
