My Seahawks won the Superbowl!! I AM SO EXCITED by this!! I can't even begin to tell you how hard it's been to be a Seahawks fan some years...like all thru the 80's when they were really up and down...and the 90's when they were really up and down...and 2005 when they got skunked in the Superbowl the last time...
So, anyway, my husband and I, as lifelong fans (and we really are lifelong -- I mean, I was just a little kid watching with my dad every Sunday) REALLY wanted a celebratory t-shirt that said Superbowl Champs -- but do you think we could find any???? Every store in our area has sold out. We keep seeing people wearing them, so the t-shirts exist, just not when we go to stores. So, instead of posting a pic of us in our new tees, we're ordering them online, and we'll just have to be patient for awhile...
But what will I do on Sundays now that football season is over? I need something to watch while I sew and quilt. Luckily the Olympics (another lifelong sports passion of mine) starts today...
I've been a quilter for over 25 years. Sometimes I look at a piece of fabric in my stash and think, "Who the hell bought this?? Oh, yeah, 16 year old me..." Here, I explore how to use the fabric in my stash that may not be my style anymore in a more up-to-date way. I try to make it modern!

Holiday break, how I miss you...
Oh, Holiday Break, how I miss you. January 3, my last post, was so long ago, and I was coming off such a great time of sewing. Then, the quarter started, after the change in the GED test, and all of a sudden I have no time for sewing. All of my time is being spent writing new curriculum for my class that has to be new because of the test's change...
To keep myself from TOTALLY being in a "woe-is-me" mood, I've been taking pictures of projects I have hanging around my house...you know, so I remember that I can sew, even if I'm not actually doing it...
Here is the wall-hanging I made for my laundry room...I mean, doesn't every laundry room need a quilt on the wall??
Hopefully this weekend, while my hubs is out of town, I can get in some sewing time...
If I do, I'll be sure to take pictures...
