On the road again...


I'm heading to Wilmington to spend my birthday weekend with my son and his family.   Actually, I celebrate my birthday the entire month of August.   This year, I gave myself a nice little present... perfect, imho, for a nerd/geek who sews...


Yes, BlockBase is back "in print" and if you click on the BB icon on Barbara Brackman's blog, you can get free shipping!

I haven't had a chance to load it on to my computer since it was in yesterday's mail and I didn't get home til dinner time.... but next weekend, definitely!

I'll leave with a little funny....



 ...and a happy birthday to Sheila of Sew, Cook, and Travel, who is an entire day older than I am!

  5. Happy Birthday, lady! So smart to gift yourself. I told myself years ago as a young mother with so many demands on me, that if I wanted a happy birthday I needed to make sure it happened. I have tried to follow my advice ever since. My birthday falls on or near Thanksgiving, and I often have to spend it cooking or hosting or cleaning, so I am sure to set aside a day for what I want to do to celebrate. Hope you have a grand time--yes, all month long, as Doniene mentioned. I have a good friend who always says, "It's my birthday month," and spends all month celebrating.
