Sew Sweet Quilt Shop is presenting these quilts as their annual Saturday Sampler Block-of-the-Month, and the first installment happens at tomorrow’s event at […]

Studio Organizing, Week 37

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

My, my, how the time does get away from me! I’m glad I chose an easy task for last week. I got my 4th drawer cleaned out. How did you do? I moved a lot of stuff around in my sewing room this week. Moving things to get them out of my way so I […]

Studio Organizing, Week 36

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

Now that all your finished quilts are in order, don’t you feel much better? I made a feeble start at it. That little pile I showed you last week is the only finished quilts I dealt with, but it’s a start! I was gone for most of the week to my daughter’s wedding, so I […]

August 350 Blocks Report

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

Time to report in on blocks you made in August! August was a busy month for me, so I know it was for a lot of you as well. (September promises to be even busier!) And in spite of myself, I managed to make 15 blocks. I fell one short of the August goal, with […]

Studio Organizing, Week 35

Posted on August 27, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

How’d you do last week? I’m making progress, however slowly. I only have one more shelf of the closet to clean off. I need to decide what I’m going to do with the things that are there, and I didn’t have time to deal with those types of decisions this week. I was running the […]

Studio Organizing, Week 34

Posted on August 20, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Ten things — did you get ’em done? I will readily admit: I did not. I tried, but just couldn’t find time to get to all of these things. I’m working on some very special projects and urgent deadlines this week. Right now, there’s no light at the end of my tunnel until November, and […]

Girlfriends Retreat

Posted on August 17, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Travels

This past weekend I was invited to a retreat with some friends at Sew Sweet Quilt Shop’s fabulous retreat center. You know I’m not one to say NO to a retreat, so Linda stopped by to pick me up, and off we went! There were 14 of us there, and more food than I’ve seen […]

Studio Organizing, Week 33

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

So how did you get along with organizing files on your computer? Did you get those backups made? I cleaned off an amazing amount of files I no longer need. (My downloads folder gets crazy out of control in a short time!) I backed up my most important things. Files I would hate to have […]

Blossom and Pepper

Posted on August 12, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Animals

When spring finally rolled around, and My Cowboy and I got Jasper’s new digs all fixed up, we finally had everything ready so that we could get Jasper a girlfriend. I could tell he was lonely, and he was getting a bit belligerent at times. He can be quite lethal with those horns! I thought […]

Conversations with a Cowboy

Posted on August 7, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Quotes

Being a quilter, it’s quite appropriate that My Cowboy keeps me in stitches, right? He’s a very quick wit, and a really funny guy, so there’s constant laughter going on around here. He says: “I give you so much blog fodder, and you won’t even use it!” To which I have to respond: “Well, over […]
