It’s done! I’m so excited and exhausted. I’ll keep this one short.
Anna Banana is a collection of 4 designs for the table. A table runner in two different sizes, place mats, and place cards. It includes several fun techniques that I think you’ll enjoy.
The pattern is available in the shop, located on my much meddled [...]

Bat-in-the-Box
Whew, it worked. It was touch and go there for awhile. Especially when my entire family gave the one-eyed balloon a thumbs down (“not scary enough Mom”). A trip to Rite-Aid, several more trips to the hardware store and a few strokes of day-glo paint and I was back in business.
I’m totally beating myself up [...]
Printmaking with Girl Scouts
Susan of Art Espirit wrote her first Whip Up post about print making with children. It was an idea I fell in love with and filed away in my memory banks for future use. Two weeks ago Leil and I carried the idea to her Girl Scout troop for work on the Printing and Graphics [...]
Halloween Happenings
A jack-in-the-box work in progress. I’ve got my fingers crossed that this thing works by Saturday at 12:00 noon when it’s set to appear at the annual Haunted House & Halloween Carnival at Leil’s school. And I wonder where all my time goes…
Threading a Bead on a Ribbon

I’m planning to move all my tutorials to PDF format. I’ve always struggled with [...]
Do Not Enter!!! Spooky Mansion!
That’s what the little toothpicks ‘nailed’ across the door say. The girls were 4 and 7 when we created this very spooky house. We all smile when it makes its yearly appearance on our table. The project began as one of those plain paper houses you can purchase at hobby stores. I’ve always used a [...]
Quilting Gloves
Greg takes the girls out shopping every Christmas to pick up stocking stuffers for Mom. Last year they did good, real good. These Fons & Porter quilting gloves are my absolute favorite. I have very large hands and these fit me like a ‘glove’ (hee, hee). You gals with big hands know EXACTLY what [...]
Busy Bee
Oh, hi there. Yes, Mom, I’m fine. My mom tends to worry the most when I don’t post. The calendar pages are flying off around here, whizzing by my head as I attempt to sit and write.
The closest I came to writing about my Moo cards that I’ve been putting into my pattern orders:
