http://craftingmamalibrarian.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Creative Endeavors in a Busy Life. Sunday, March 18, 2012. Did you think I could resist these? We had the Winter That Wasn't and now are having some lovely, warm days. The sun is strong, no leaves on the trees, so when you are outside it can feel very tiring this time of year. Notice the careful, wide-legged stance! Also, some friends visited (baby feet, pictured above) and we caught up and played games and made yummy food (dehydrated kale chips were delicious, even Jonas admits it! A Sew Groovy Chick.

A little peak at the lovely Rockport Harbor on a gray wintery day. Snow: Please come here now. Lots of inside, windowsill shots because it has been cold and unappealing outside lately.

Sunday, January 26, 2014. Based on my number of posts last year, I lost my voice in 2013. I wonder if you've ever felt like me?

http://craftingmamalibrarian.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Creative Endeavors in a Busy Life. Monday, August 27, 2012. Last night of summer vacay. Am I ready to go back to school? Well I love being on vacation as much as the next librarian, but I've just had so. Summer, it's been so rich, we've been so lucky, had so much time together as a family and with a lot of people we love. It would be greedy of me to say no. The answer is yes, I'm ready to head into my new adventure. I'm full of summer. It's been enough; perfect, really. And I have one more Artist Profile.

Creative Endeavors in a Busy Life. Monday, May 28, 2012. These two boys, getting bigger (one of them is bigger than me! And more independent every day. I know lots of moms who manage the great juggling act of family and kids and full-time work and I am in awe of them. I could not have been either the mom or employee that I wish to be had I gone back to work full-time, even a moment sooner than this year when my boys are 13 and 9. Sylvan in mid-air, as per usual. Sometimes we are crazy and silly and annoy...

My Feed Dogs Are Down: Backings revisited
http://myfeeddogsaredown.blogspot.com/2014/12/backings-revisited.html
My Feed Dogs Are Down. Wednesday, December 3, 2014. So remember in the last post. Where I said I'd talk about other backing topics? So here are some of my thoughts that aren't related to just figuring out the math. I'm talking about backings that have two pieces of fabric running in one direction and another running perpendicular. Thusly:. I can tell you that longarmers hate. So all of the things above that I mentioned that longarmers aren't fans of? A note about using minky: please don't use the yucky s...

My Feed Dogs Are Down. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. How to Bind a Quilt with Minky Fabric (and how to join binding ends). It can be done! Oh, and though I quilt my quilts on a straight stitch machine, for this part I used my trusty Kenmore. It only has 12 stitches! I lowered my presser foot pressure down to zero and I lengthened the stitch length to about 3. I like to join my binding ends, so here's a little bonus tutorial! Pin in both directions and make a diagonal line from the corner of the top bindi...
