Rough Week !!!

This has been a rough week for me. I know it is pale in comparsion to what some folks are going through. Our little special kitten Maggie was almost a month old. Her eyes were open, she could follow and recognize our voice, was starting to walk a steady line and trying sit up in big kitty fashion. Maggie is now our kitty angel. She passed away on Wednesday.
Last night I bought fabric! Yippeeeeee......Wally World actually had some new items in. The store in Lake City is slowly doing away with fabrics. After that is gone, there will only be two quilt shops for fabric. I can always find used, but clean clothing to repurpose. Walmart thinks people do not sew anymore and electronics bring in more cash flow. So sad!
Have an awesome weekend! Thank you for reading. Blessings CJ

Sunday Mornings!

I just love the peace and quiet of a Sunday morning. What about you? The morning gives a person time to think, plan, and reflect on what is really important these days. Family, friends, love, trust, values, all things from the heart. Think I will go make a list. Blessings

For the LOVE of CATS!!!!!!!

Okay how many of you on the are cat lovers? Raise your hand please. I would love to hear from you. We are currently raising a little one that is being bottle feed......remember those days when your human babies were just born? Maggie is just 2 weeks old , already has a catatutide and growing like a weed. She is a gift to us from one of our other female cats......she gave her life .....we get to raise her. Juggling sewing is going to be fun. I hope everyone is ready for the down hill side of this week. Blessings to all CJ and Jim

For the LOVE of Fabric!

Fabric, no matter what it is made of holds us and the parts of life we hold close together. Although it seems with alot of fabric shops going bye, bye due to the economy our life's would do the same. However this is not true. For the most part I have seen families grow even closer! Everyone should know how to sew on a button and turn under a hem.
Fabric is my main passion. I am an artist by God's gift. Fabric can change a mood, take your breathe away, and be mixed with so many different mediums. I love to draw and design my own patterns. Having been a public school teacher for many moons (retired now) my knowledge and skill at free handing items for the classroom was ever so helpful. Please remember your child's teacher when school starts. This economy has caused many cutbacks and teachers will dig into their own pockets to help their students even when their family might go without. Just a thought! Blessings! Until next time CJ

Starting a blog!

Good Day to the lucky and awesome person you are for finding my blog! This is my first attempt at blogging, so please go easy on me. I have a passion for fabric and sewing! My sweetheart Jim and decided to start our business, even though we have a down economy. We vend at local festivals, but decided that was not enough. So we brought the business to the web.
