May seem small to others, but when it takes 15 mins to load a 1 min video, it gets very frustrating after a while! Being I am a visual learner, I use YouTube for my "how to's." We got faster internet installed yesterday, so now it just PLAYS when I click… YEAH! With this being said, I have been looking at how to hand appliqué. I see various techniques so I am trying to determine which will work best for me. I see some use freezer paper, some use fusible web, some use ...

Then, there are the mystery pieces that take time and contemplation and, perhaps, invite the thoughts and expertise of others who are interested in your journey. Yet the Creator of ...
Can you anyone lead me to a person or place to advise me how to easily copyright a quilting pattern? I have created several patterns and would love to share them with all of you but have been advised to copyright them 1st. Big thanks! annemarcellisquiltdesigns@yahoo.com
Have had a long but exciting couple of days in Minneapolis. One of the things I do when I'm not sewing is act as a parliamentarian for Lutheran congregations and groups. Yesterday and today I was the parliamentarian for the Minneapolis Area Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). Those 700+ lay people and clergy did several things, but one thing they did was very exciting, to me. For the first time, ever, they elected a woman as their new Bishop! ...

This morning when getting ready to spend the day out of town with an old friend, those pants were nowhere to be found. I already had on a bright red sweater so I needed dark pants. I found a pair of very dark green ones a size smaller. ...
Well my hubby knows that nothing will stop me from my sewing and quilting so he designed a tattoo just for me. Last night I went and got it done. It's a bit on the red side as this was taken only 2 hrs after I had it done. It is on my left shoulder backside LOL. I also have already picked out the next one for my right side. I want to get them before we start riding this summer.
