So... I'm told "the vaccine" is on the way. And it seems it's just a matter of
time until we can once again have concerts & Quilt shows & hugs
with strangers, at least the strangers we want to hug.The goal now is to
see it through. Remain vigilant, but don't put your entire life on
hold. Be cautious but not afraid.
Stay
tough during the holidays and do whatever you can to find moments of
joy. But keep your head down and work on something to
share with the world in 2021. That's my plan anyway. All of this really will come
to an end so hang in there everyone and let's get started!

How IKEA was invented- So I went to an IKEA for the very 1st time last year at this time in Charlotte & I have to admit I was pretty surprised at how it was set up and run. Oh I enjoyed the experience but was a little surprised at the format. It made me ask..."How in the world did they come up with this idea?" but when I saw this video it all kinda made sense! Just click HERE to see what I mean!

Show Cancellations- And the beat goes on folks! You might recall from last month that we were at least hoping that we'd get to vend at our MAQF in February of 2021 (but not holding our breath!) Well its a good thing we weren't holding out breath after all because now its cancelled also. That means our next show will not be until October of 2021, the International Quilt Market & Festival. Sooooo sad!

Ready for a hair update?- Last month I told you that I was beginning the long process of no longer covering my gray hair, & as you can in the pictures at right, step one is in the books... that is, I got my hair highlighted to eliminate the skunk stripe down my part! It took me about a week to get used to this look but bear in mind this is only step one. Turns out the real color of my hair from my ears forward now is... ALL WHITE and I'm not sure I'm quite ready for THAT just yet. But stay tuned! It's definitely a work in progress!

Don't put your suitcases on the bed, EVER- For years, I had the same packing routine: Pull my hard-shell roller suitcase down from the attic, toss it on my bed, and fill it with clothes. Once I checked into my hotel, unless a luggage rack had been set up somewhere convenient, I’d throw my luggage onto the bed again and pull out the things I needed for the night before chucking it all on the floor. But that all changed last winter. {Click HERE to read more}
