Need some new movie ideas?
Check out Susan Branch's blog,
There's enough suggestions to keep very busy.
Maybe instead of a book club, organize  some friends to
have a Silver Screen Group and watch old movies.



Want to start a new project?
Join Lori at Humble Quilts, and
join in her quilt a-long on a sweet vintage
little quilt done in double pinks, chrome yellows,
with a bit of brown, navy and red.
It should be fun.


Also Sentimental Stitches and Brenda P. of Dear Jane Fame
are starting a mystery quilt,
"It Just Takes 2."
Check out the details.  It looks like it will be
a great way to make that special red and white quilt.
The first set of blocks are done.  Now
I just have to add the red work embroidery that's
in some of the open areas.

There's so many exciting and interesting things to do.
How can I possibly choose?

Easy,
I won't choose.
I'm going to do them all
plus a few more!

Until Next Time-
