Cowboy Follies

Posted on December 13, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Prairie Moon Ranch

A trip to the emergency room is not supposed to be funny — unless you’re with My Cowboy, and then it’s downright hilarious! After a couple sleepless nights, a bad day yesterday, and his inability to get up this morning, I made My Cowboy let me take him in to get checked out. He’d been […]

Unseasonably Warm

Posted on December 12, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Prairie Moon Ranch

We’ve been having some crazy warm weather for December around here. I really like it, but it’s gonna make me hate it even worse when it does finally get cold. When my Cowboy said he was fixin’ to ride out and check the cattle, I unplugged the longarm and said, “I wanna go, too.” It’s […]

Studio Organizing, Week 50

Posted on December 10, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

How’d you do last week on a UFO? I did great! I decided to call my quilt top finished the way it is — I’m not gonna add another border. My Cowboy says I try to make things harder than they otta be anyway, so this is one I’m making easier. I’m calling it done […]

Studio Organizing, Week 49

Posted on December 3, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Did you find a messy drawer to clean out and organize? I got mine looking good! I took everything out of the drawer, and found another home for most of what was in there. All that’s left is about 5 pieces of fabric that are earmarked for certain upcoming projects. I’m still thinking about putting […]

November 350 Blocks Report

Posted on December 1, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in 350 Blocks Project

Was there lots of sewing going on last month? Did you get lots of blocks made? I had a much busier month than I wanted to have, but I sure got a lot done. And oddly, the to-do list seems longer now than it did a month ago. I hit the goal right on the […]

Studio Organizing, Week 48

Posted on November 28, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

It’s Saturday! I took a couple days off for Thanksgiving, and I hope you did, too — that way no one minds that this week’s task is a couple days late. We were busy with other things, right? How did you do with putting away fabric? I must confess right now that I completely failed […]

Studio Organizing, Week 47

Posted on November 19, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Wow! Did I ever make the lists last week! I think I filled up half a notebook! Now to get all the ideas sorted and DONE — methinks that part will take awhile . . . Did you make any more lists? Or just work on a list you already had? Truthfully, working on a […]

Studio Organizing, Week 46

Posted on November 13, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

When My Cowboy reminded me this morning that today is trash day, and I didn’t have the trash put out yet, it also made me realize that yesterday was Thursday, and I didn’t post our organizing task! I’m having a bit of trouble keeping track of the days right now. Does your sewing area feel […]

Studio Organizing, Week 45

Posted on November 5, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Did you find three things that needed attention last week? I found more than three, but chose to ignore them in favor of the more urgent ones that were screaming for attention. I didn’t get any filing done, but I did get my desk cleared off . . . again. I didn’t get all the […]

October 350 Blocks Report

Posted on October 31, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in 350 Blocks Project

I blinked, and October is over. Today is Halloween. For my own blocks this month, I get a big fat ZERO! I hope all of you did better than I did. I need 104 more blocks to reach 350 this year. Guess I’ll be doing lots of sewing the next couple months! I do have […]
