Quilt Wannabuts

I'm presently bidding on three different quilts at the thrift auction; I want to use these for my home office and the pups' crates -- but only if I can get them for the price I'm willing to pay, aka wannabuts. :)

I liked this green quilt from the moment I saw it, but I may not win it due to another bidder taking interest.

This is a very skillfully made quilt, and I like the unusual colors. If I can get it for the minimum bid I'd be quite happy to own it.

The colors of this vivid quilt just jumped off my computer screen. It's really neat -- as long as the price is right.

Stay tuned to the blog to find out if I win any of these quilts.

I like to make hanging pomanders , which smell heavenly and are biodegradable after the holidays. Mug Rugs: If you sew, making up a set of mug rugs is simple and easy; I add these every year to my ...

Journal Find

This is a page from my 2010 poetry journal. My handwriting isn't the best, so I'll transcribe it: If my heart survives to tell all the secrets kept inside it will be an abalone shell in which the beauty did reside. But I think I will always be lost to the tides that rage in me . . . humbling and polishing . . . I don't write many self-portrait poems, but this one isn't too embarrassing. A bit overly dramatic, but the girl I was eleven years ago went through some tough times. I'm in a much more peaceful place today.
