How are you today Quilter!,

I've been thinking about Creativity lately. It takes so many forms for people like us. We look at life through a very creative lens.

We want to surround ourselves with things that make up smile, that are happy, that are beautiful, that are FUN!

This FUN factor extends to just about everything I do... like my phone case.. I can't stand a boring case! My current case is sporting this Hello Kitty cover... Meow-zer she is sweet!

phone we had

I believe I come by this honestly..

The best phone my dad ever bought looked like this one

.and it chirped!!

What does YOUR phone look like?

I'm so excited the last fews days when I get an email or a Facebook note saying you are joining me in Jan of 2015 on the Moda Quilt Cruise! I LOVE teaching on cruises... you will have your own space the entire trip to sew three fantastic quilt projects!

Be sure to Contact the travel agency for all the details and to set up a payment plan. By the time the cruise arrives it has been paid for .. THAT my friends is awesome-slaw!

The last time I taught on a cruise it filled up quick, so be sure you get in on this one quick, I would love to spend a week in the sun with you next January!
