Karen's Chronicles: April 2010
http://karenschronicles.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Random posts about my quilting, gardening and other interests. Sunday, April 11, 2010. April 11, 2010 - Rough Draft. I got a small start on my Nash Schnibbles quilt. I'm using Looking Back. By Brannock and Patek. I don't like that the red from the 4 patch touches another red. So I plan to have all the 4 patches be composed of 2 blue and 2 brown fabrics. I am using layer cakes and a bit of yardage, so I have enough fabric to not have to rip out this block. Stay tuned for more progress. No finishes to post...

http://karenschronicles.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Random posts about my quilting, gardening and other interests. Monday, June 29, 2009. Irish Chain and Rail Fence quilts. Sorry for the fuzziness, these were taken with my cell phone. Sunday, June 28, 2009. June 28, 2009 - A finish! I am on a dial up connection, so no photo for now. I have finished the navy and ecru Irish Chain quilt. I used Judy Laquidara's technique of sewing the binding completely by machine. It worked great and saved lots of time! Tuesday, June 2, 2009. June 2, 2009 - Bleep. Plan C - ...

Karen's Chronicles: April 4, 2010 - UFO problem
http://karenschronicles.blogspot.com/2010/04/ufo-problem.html
Random posts about my quilting, gardening and other interests. Sunday, April 4, 2010. April 4, 2010 - UFO problem. No finishes to post. I seem to have a problem with attention span. I have started at least 5 projects in the past 6 months or so. Then I get bored with the project, or an urgent need arises for a gift or a new project. Or a new collection is released that I need.

Karen's Chronicles: April 4, 2010 - Pin Cushions
http://karenschronicles.blogspot.com/2010/04/april-4-2010-pin-cusions.html
Random posts about my quilting, gardening and other interests. Sunday, April 4, 2010. April 4, 2010 - Pin Cushions. I have been sewing since I was 10 years old. That's a long time. : ). I have always kept my straight pins in a plastic or tin box and I just grab the pins as I pin a garment or quilting project. So I bought a large tomato pin cushion from Joann Fabrics and I am going to give it a try. Do you use a pin cushion or box of pins? Photo from Joann fabrics. April 4, 2010 at 11:49 AM. I do the same.

Random posts about my quilting, gardening and other interests. Saturday, April 25, 2009. April 25, 2009 - Watching the flowers bloom. Watching the flowers bloom. That's about how much energy I have had this week, still not up to speed after battling the crud. I look longingly at the sewing machine and my quilting projects and say, "Maybe tomorrow.". We're having a downpour this morning so I am sure the plants and grass will have quite a growth spurt in the next week. That's the news from here for now!

Stadel Mountain: January 2013
http://stadelmountain.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
We all have a mountain to climb, you'll find some of my journey here. Monday, January 28, 2013. Cover a cover and you're ok? I ran across an interesting story about how a relatively obscure artist, Jonathan Coulton, did a non-rap style "cover" of a 90's rap song and how his arrangement was used by the TV show Glee with no acknowledgement or compensation. What I read is here. From the Wired article. I will take it on face value that Coulton's lawyers are best to interpret the law, but in listening to the ...

We all have a mountain to climb, you'll find some of my journey here. Wednesday, January 5, 2011. This New Year's Eve, Hannah used Hurdy. S one of her words during our family game of Hangman. Since half the family didn't know what it meant and the other half thought it was some sort of slang I thought I'd share this video. It's a a nice introduction to the Hurdy. Links to this post.

Stadel Mountain: December 2010
http://stadelmountain.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
We all have a mountain to climb, you'll find some of my journey here. Friday, December 24, 2010. Phone calls from a computer. The idea is not new.but this was easy. Google is so smart. I'm pretty sure they'll take over the world. While checking email I saw an interesting page from Google, something about teaching your parents how to do techie things. I watched this quick video http:/ www.teachparentstech.org/make-calls. Thanks Google for creating something that's easy to use. Again. Links to this post.
