Cupid was very good to me! These are the flowers that Tim gave me for Valentine's Day. He also got me 2 GIANT DARK CHOCOLATE BARS and a very sweet card! I don't know what I did to get so lucky!!!

On the road Again!
Well, I will be traveling to Austin, Texas next week. I am going with friends (A & Q) who are attending a conference. While they are at that I am going to relax and do some sight seeing.
I will definitely be looking for some quilt shops!
We are going to try to find time to go visit the Alamo while we are there........although it's about an hour away from where we'll be staying.

Hello Again!
It has been so long since my last post I am ashamed. I was recently told I was "googled" by someone who found my page, so I decided to update it.
Things have been very busy. To date I have made 42 bears for hospice. I am only going to add one more photo-----this is one that came out really well. The man had worked for UPS for serveral years, and I was given his shirt to make the bear. I thought it turned out well, and the daughter loved it. Here's the picture.
I haven't done alot of quilting lately.....I should have some more time for that now that I am not teaching the accounting class for Fairmont State University. I have however finished up a baby quilt for a dear friend. She had a beautiful baby boy named Lincoln. Here's some pictures of that.

Something Pink........
You all know that I am passionate about Breast Cancer Awareness because of my mom's battle with this disease. After mom's diagnosis, I purchased a breast cancer awareness braclet and wore it every day, day and night. I decided that I wanted something more permanent, so I searched and searched for the right design and finally found it! So, on June 14th, I got a tattoo! It's on my right leg, just above the ankle.
The pink ribbon is of course for Breast Cancer Awareness, and if you look closely, you will see a black ribbon behind the pink one.......that is in memory of my mom. The scroll work signifies the need to keep spreading awareness, and additionally, for me, the fact that life continues even after the loss of a loved one.
Thanks to Jerry at Atomic Tattoo in Wintersville, Ohio for his wonderful work. And thanks to Mike, for recommending Jerry!

Hello Again!
Sorry it has been so long since my last post. Things are busy with work-----we have a June 30th year end----and home. I had some damage to my home just after Thanksgiving last year and it is now completely fixed.......new roof and new plaster inside! Yeah! So I was not getting much quilting done----but now I have regained my bedroom and turned the spare bedroom into my sewing room. I still need to do some organizing.....but will do that as I get back into quilting and arrange as I go.
I have been going to alot of my cousin's Babe Ruth Baseball games.......he just won the 14-year old regional division on Sunday and is going to the State Championships in two weeks. The first picture is of my cousin, Mike playing 1st base.......

On Saturday, I got the two quilts back that I sent to the quilter in May! They are beautiful. I only have a few photos of the block of the month quilt taken-------I attached the binding and it is ready to hand sew down-----that's why all of the clips are there! I will put up a picture of the other quilt soon!
