No Room on the Blog

Ok. Here is the scoop. The bad news is I can't add any new pictures to the blog because I ran out of picture space. The good news is one year plus into the blog thing, I have used up all my free picture space. So I have to buy, upload, update, renew, gigs or bytes or something. So when I figure out how to configure the updates I will post new pics.

And while I have been asked of late why am I not on Facebook or Pinterest? I don't have time. If I had more time, I would craft more and post more; however, in regards to time and contrary to all my desires, full time jobs that pay do have a priority, but that's not MY rule. : (

And apprently, I am not yet technologically savvy enough or connected with someone who surpasses me in blog knowledge in my circles. Anyway, do I really want to be soooo out there!?! Well, maybe later.

So in the meantime enjoy this picture...

I like to imagine it all lit up in Christmas lights with a sleigh parked on the side ready to carry scarfed and mittened travelers across the snow on a starlit night.... if I blink really hard maybe I can go there?

It's a Block Party!

Welcome to the Friday Night Block Party! I always wanted to live in a neighborhood that had block parties, but I lived in a cul-de-sac where people only made U-turns! But I have decided to make my own Block Party right here on the blog! We'll be here every Friday and you can even be a host if you want. Just shoot me an email . But for now, let's get this party started! I am going to be showcasing some great quilt blocks in this feature with some back stories. This is a good way to become more familiar with the history of quilting and the blocks, read a blurb here . And of course, making samples is a great hands-on experience. Join me won't you? You could share the same block, which would be nice, but a Block Party is a Block Party! So just add your link to feature any block that you are working on whether it's paper or fabric. I am asking however, that you please add n...
