So, how’s your week going so far?
I can tell you that I’ve been fighting this nasty cold/sinus infection/virus thing for 8 long days now. Kent is sick, too (much worse than I am.) We finally cried “uncle” and went to the doctor yesterday afternoon for some antibiotics. Hopefully, the medication will knock this thing out, [...]

The 2009 Quilters’ Heritage Celebration Show has officially begun in Lancaster, PA!
I arrived on Sunday evening and spent Monday and Tuesday judging the various categories of the quilt contest. It was a phenominal experience, and although we worked hard and the decisions were very difficult, I thoroughly enjoyed every moment! The quilts entered into this [...]
