Happy 2013 and Continued Blessings

Happy New Year,

May you find this year filled with all the fabric, thread, and yummy goodness that your heart desires.

I am sitting here listening to my church service via internet...love technology...and I am always thankful for the last few days of the year...as it  provides a moment of reflection and stillness.  I find that i am most happy and most thankful when i am in my house leading into the new season.  The only other place that rivals that is church service...but with technology...thats not a problem.

I look forward to a year filled with lots of quilty goodness and loads of creative energy.  I also pray that i am able to find the time to complete the multitude of projects that are flying through my imagination.

So i look forward to a year of health, continued blessings, and the continued expression of the god given talents that I have been so lovingly blessed with.

How to Shed weight in just 15 minutes a day

Hi blog world,

It has been a while since I have posted anything about play here. During my absence I have managed to get a bit hefty around the fabric area. I know, I know with all of the holiday fabric goodies, I guess it was bound to happen.

Fortunately, a friend told me about this new fabric slimming diet, a great stash buster to get rid of all that excess fabric weight. So I decidedTo go at it again after fallin off yet another fabric diet wagon.

So I pulled out my ingredients and in just 15 minutes this morning I was well on my way to losing fabric. This is so awesome, I can do this in the morning in just 15 minutes.

Thanks Victoria...and for those of you that have not gotten your diet plan together, pick up the how to ..."15 Minutes of Play" by Victoria Findlay Wolfe.

Giving Warms the Heart

I love when people dig deep into their spirit to give to those in need. I often wish it could be a year of sustained giving. Today was charity day at the Empire Guilds meeting.

With hurricane sandy and all the displaced families, this guild has been busy making and giving quilts. So today was no different, as it was the day to stuff the stockings that we deliver to homeless shelters. Toys and fun for the children and toiletries for the adults, complete with gloves, socks, and gloves.

Giving truly warms the heart. Happy giving season.
