Last Week I started playing with some fabric again with the hope that it would “oil the creative machine”. And it did. I had two pieces of the patched together batiks. I would make two 20″ throw pillows. I decided to try some free hand quilting with the embroidery foot of my Bernina. I guess it’s free […]

Does this saddle make me look fat? Paint ol’ buddy, we need to talk. I’m a little concerned about your weight. Your belly is hanging over your back cinch. I know you’re sensitive and all. It’s been a long winter. I understand where you’re coming from. I do. We are both at the same stage in […]
