Calico Dreams Forever: Boston Blocks
http://calicodreamsforever.blogspot.com/p/boston-blocks.html
I have developed several shortcuts using my cut down method. Basically the cut down method means you sew fabric together and then cut out with a template from the center of the joined fabrics. This allows you to do more intricate designs without handling small pieces. It also eliminates some math. My intention is to make it easier and faster to piece beautiful patchwork quilt blocks into projects or quilts. Cut out one strip of light fabric - 2 1/2" x 16". Once you have your strips cut then. Make sure yo...

Friday, September 16, 2011. Today has been a hectic day! I am used to a quiet household and/or when the kids are here they are able to take care of themselves. When I have had baby Colton before he was containable. Now he is crawling and walking around things and refuses to be contained for long! LOL It was a constant making sure he hadn't found something to put in his mouth that he wasn't supposed to have! But he is a love! And I hate to give shots! Anyway here are some pics we took last night and today.

Tuatara's Nest: November 2013
http://tuatarasnest.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, 24 November 2013. Essay on Perspectives on Prayer - November 2013. For many people, prayer is regarded as an unnatural activity. It is an assault on our autonomy, flying in the face of self-reliance and independence, an indictment on our post-modern self-sufficiency. [1]. In this essay I will explore a number of possible reasons as to why many people do not pray, and alternative perspectives on making prayer a more positive experience. Will it work for me? Many people believe God doesn’t he...

Tuesday, 29 October 2013. THE LABOUR WEEKEND TO REMEMBER. 1300ish Friday 25 October. Got back from lunch (sizzling seafood and veges, no onion, no rice) to be told my cellphone had been ringing. A few minutes later, it rang again. Alex was on the phone. “I’m in Burwood Spinal Unit. I’ve fractured my neck. They’re going to operate in about an hour.” WTF! John Morris, my colleague, says: “You’re worried, aren’t you? 8221; “Yes, yes I am.” “So, go! 8221; “Ok.”. Get the phone number for Alex’s dad, Lyn...
