My mother-in-law has promised to help me learn, though, so I'm looking forward to that.Jen (emsun.org)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15262746716973961624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-58950304543435641222010-01-08T13:42:30.945-06:002010-01-08T13:42:30.945-06:00Twice a year a dozen or so girlfriends and I escap...Twice a year a dozen or so girlfriends and I escape to the local Holiday Inn Express for the weekend. I take care of all the arrangements, food, etc, so my room is paid for. I don't make any profit on the deal, but it is SOO worth it. I mentioned it today to a friend whose sister travels 3+hours to spend it here with us...and she said "I can't wait. I am so ready right now!!" It is a good weekend to spread things out (mostly we can all have our own table) and not pick it up for the weekend and not really have anything else to do. March will be our 14th get together. You can just bring a new project or something that needs finished.Karen Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18189370281390432351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-38683189608008783932010-01-05T11:32:23.218-06:002010-01-05T11:32:23.218-06:00I like the "garden porn" saying :-)

We've not gotten near 0*F yet, but the wind is brutal.<br />Quilting seems to fit nicely into the cold weather - a quilt can bring the positive thoughts of increased warmth when its done, right? I did a quilt made from crocheted blocks a couple years ago, and it is great to snuggle under during the coldest days. I hope the basement area comes together quickly for you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-57756397833987251662010-01-05T06:11:02.649-06:002010-01-05T06:11:02.649-06:00Good idea on the thermometer, get one of those rem...Good idea on the thermometer, get one of those remote jobbies, I can tell in the kitchen whether or not I want to go outside, lol!

I have a big round thermometer on my porch that I love, you need one you can poke a head out and see easily. Good luck with the new years goals, I am still mulling mine around in my head.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04027961595371601398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-62110637820746528002010-01-04T22:07:03.440-06:002010-01-04T22:07:03.440-06:00Quilting is something I have been wanting to do si...Quilting is something I have been wanting to do since 2004, but still haven't done anything about it. Guess I'm just not ready yet. I have material from all my dad's shirts. I want to make a quilt from them. Maybe some day...debbieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
