Better late than never.

And we have another winter storm moving in.  The girls (Tori, Falisha, Kelly) weren't able to get here Thursday or Friday and neither was UPS.  So we spent all morning today getting everything together to ship out.  UPS did get here this afternoon so if you ordered things last week, they probably went out today.  Its probable that no one will be able to be here again until maybe Thursday so there will be a mad scramble again then.

I think people have been praying for moisture.  :)



Speaking of praying, Hunny is home safe and sound.  A lot thinner but here.  All of the other dogs have had their booster shots but the doctor said she shouldn't be around them much until Friday.  I took her for a long walk and let her play.


When we came in the house she ran and got in her kennel.  Usually we leave the door open but she spends most of her time in there anyway.  Her kennel is in the room with my computer and next to the chair Spike sleeps in most of the time.  He has sleep apnea and sleeps most of the day sitting up in the chair with his head propped up on the arm so he can breath better.  Pep says he needs a CPap machine.
He'll have his surgery in a month or so.

Now to the really important stuff.......who won what.


The winner of the Fat 1/4 Bundle is Christy Stahnke who said
"Any old comment, hee, hee, hee"


And the winner of the "My Favorite Color is Moda" Bundle is Jane who talks about climbing roses.

Both of you please email Tori at janpatekquilts@yahoo.com and give her your shipping information.  Hope you have fun with them


Here's my 2nd Little House Coaster.
Again, make a comment, any old comment (hee, hee, hee) and we'll have a drawing Friday to see who wins a kit for all 4 coasters.

Meanwhile ........"the hop goes on" (sung to the tune of "the Beat Goes On" - showing my age again)

and you really need to go visit my friends

Awesome designers, every one!

    any old comment, I love your dogs. my hubby uses a cpap and our young kitten thinks it is his. He watches and checkes it out every night. Even let's my hubby put his face in it while it's running. it's so funny. Pet's make the world a better place.

    I really like the house coaster! Coasters, wall hangings, and doll quilts are fun to make. Fast, usually easy and cute! And yes, pets make the world a better place.

    Glad Hunny is doing better. I'm sure the crate is a safe haven for Hunny. Poor Spike, hope the surgery corrects his priblem. Buford (our Basset hound) has been experiencing stomach problems, so I can understand the stress you have been under lately. I think your house coasters are sweet, and would love a chance to try stitching some up!

    I love those little houses! I already have a soft spot for house quilt designs, so I think the coasters would be great fun!! (Just have to convince my sneaky puppy they're not dog toys. He thinks everything is a dog toy!)

    Those coasters would be wonderful in my home. I love applique and making them on the plane to MI to visit my children would help with the long flight. Thanks for your chances to win.

    Looks like we might not get snow this year in Seattle, although it's not too late. I hate to see snow on crocus.
