Life’s been busy! Wait, I think it’s not been calm since I had my son 5 years ago. We’re still house hunting. I’m still quilting. I’m still gaming. I’m still podcasting. I’m still twittering....

Current Projects: April Week 1
It’s kind of depressing how little progress I made in March. Mostly because of PAX and being sick. I finished Kiddo’s lap quilt finally. Sadly he doesn’t seem too crazy about it. Honeybun’s quilt is...

Finish Up Friday – April 19
I have a lot to cover this week and I thought it would be best to just do one big post. Finished Honeybun’s quilt first. I mixed hand quilting, freemotion, and tying to get this one together. Instead...
