Luckily he helps and I have someone come in every two weeks. I'd rather spend my time quilting than cleaning!<BR/><BR/>I also get a lot of inspiration from all the quilts I see on the internet and books and magazines. My quilts usually turn out somewhat different than my inspiration quilt which is usually a good thing.Mary Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07801947879882584734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1162249857107473122006-10-30T17:10:00.000-06:002006-10-30T17:10:00.000-06:00I'm an early bird too.

At least They are dressing up!<BR/>I understand about not wanting to make the same thing as everyone else. The point of making something yourself is that you can customize it. That is why I rarely buy a kit - I gather my own fabrics so there is at least a chance that they will look different from everyone elses.Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1162133151183765592006-10-29T08:45:00.000-06:002006-10-29T08:45:00.000-06:00sounds like life is settling down for your family ...sounds like life is settling down for your family - I know I see a lot of thimbleberries in a few shops around here but there are many, many art quilters in Seattle so that is what I see the most - what I long for is a great shop that sells lots of folk, primitive, and plaid stuff<BR/>juliannJuliann in WAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15895551530087690102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1162112560325021342006-10-29T03:02:00.000-06:002006-10-29T03:02:00.000-06:00Love yours jobs!!!

My favourite at the moment is the florals from Moda.<BR/>I always enjoy seeing how you decorate your home.

I never seem to get enough sleep during the work week these days, so my husband entertained the dog and kept him out of the bedroom this morning. I slept in until almost 9:00 a.m. - unheard of!<BR/><BR/>I like Thimbleberries fabrics - but not by themselves. There is too much of a "sameness" to them. I mix mine with lots of other fabrics and like them much better that way.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07125491177774966237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1162075794928179352006-10-28T17:49:00.000-05:002006-10-28T17:49:00.000-05:00I love the white picket fence all round that pumpk...I love the white picket fence all round that pumpkin quilt :o)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352283065863856112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1162068954176793742006-10-28T15:55:00.000-05:002006-10-28T15:55:00.000-05:00Love your bunnies and your Thimbleberries quilt--l...Love your bunnies and your Thimbleberries quilt--looks like Halloween has arrived at your house.

They really make lots of nice "compatables" that go great with many fabric lines.

I've always been drawn to brights and I do still love them. But lately I've wanted to work with civil war colors or thimbleberryish stuff, or pastels or florals.

We're in the midst of a 2 day rain/wind storm here.<BR/>On Thimbleberries-they've been so big around here for years, but one shop I work with did the Harvest Spice for their BOM this year. One quilter I know calls them "Thimble-uglies", because she got so tired of seeing them come through the door. <BR/>I still like them, but I've also fallen in love with CW repros and some batiks. Pretty eclectic, huh?<BR/>So, when your son came home, did you just look at him for several minutes, checking for any changes? I do that with Keri and she's home every other weekend.<BR/>Have fun with the "cool" kids tonight.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791592886458322904noreply@blogger.com
