I visited my sewing machine today. It’s been a bit lonely lately, I’m sure. There it sits on that lovely custom sewing table day after day, and it can’t even enjoy the view from the window because it’s turned toward the opposite wall. I’ve been doing some quilt related things recently as I hinted here, [...]

An Interesting Place
May 13, 2011
By way of a little “touching base/checking in” type post, I find myself in an interesting place at the moment, both literally and figuratively: Augusta is an interesting place. So far, we really like it here, high pollen counts and high temperatures notwithstanding. We’re not actually in Augusta, but in a smaller town just outside [...]
No Complaints Here…Well, Maybe Just One
January 27, 2011
As some of you may know, I’ve wanted to move back to the US for a number of years. Honestly, fear was probably what kept us here. Fear of the unknown, fear of the little hell that is moving your entire life from one continent to another (it wasn’t fun the first time, it isn’t [...]
Getting in Touch
March 2, 2010

Motivational Difficulties
November 7, 2009
I’ve been trying to get back into the swing of things here, with very little success. Ever since I got off the plane on Tuesday morning, I’ve been trying to “get it together” and “get back to normal” and I can’t figure out why I’m not getting there. I just don’t feel like doing anything. [...]
Quilting Habits and Instincts
August 18, 2009
I’ve come to the conclusion that spiders may not be the dumb creatures of evil and malicious intent that I’ve always thought them to be; maybe they’re just creatures of habit and instinct. Now I say “may not be” because I’m really not quite ready to consign them to the ranks of the innocent just [...]
