Life has been very busy, many quilts have been made and given away! Isn't that what we do. Make quilt for others to enjoy? Yes, we sometimes make quilts for us, but there are just so many spaces to hang. So many others that need our help! I still love some of the quilts hanging in my dwelling that I just can't take down. My bed quilt is an African mismatch of whack and sew blocks that I made 6 years ago and everyday I wake up and love it!<br />
I think the beauty of being able to do what we do is the ability to create for ourselves and some else and pass it along.<br />
I recently made a retirement/ camper quilt for some good friends and when I asked what they liked they said moose, fish, camping and, yes, I did have most of that type of fabric in my stash. <br />
My daughter asked me to make some comfort quilts for her OT's that had life changes and needed comfort, yes to those.<br />
Now it seems to be costume time and can't wait to find out what grandkids want. <br />
I have done many Challenges in my local guild. Summer, Year Long, swaps, petals, Friendships, BOM, Crazy Quilts, 1/2 Square Triangles, Round Robins, Strips Robins, you name it I have done it.<br />
Maybe that is my new direction in creating trunk shows for others. I sure have done a lot those.<br />
Maybe my direction has to be something that someone challenges me to do. I have 70 garments, more, than that in quilts, more than that in ideas and waiting, I think, for the next break through .<br />
Every creative person looks to the next creation, the next quest in fabric hunting, no, I don't need that!!!!!!!!!!<br />
I have many UFO's and this year, may finish some, again. After visiting Italy for 12 days with another quilting friend and going on Esterita Austin's Getaway, and realizing I am not painter, we should all be up to trying new things, maybe failing, but still being you. This should be the year of finding your voice.<br />
I have a voice, garment, loud fabrics, hack and sew techniques, themes of every kind and the willingness to be open to anything.<br />
How about you?<br />
I will try to be a better blogger, not for you, but to keep track of what I have done.<br />

Yes, I have and did. I have made 15 Comfort quilts, finished a Judy Neimeyer I have worked on for 3 years, cried, stitched some more, had more conversations that were ore negative side and can't believe it is on me and it needs to be fixed, somehow? Maybe? I wish it were a complicated quilt but it isn't. It is family and that is the hardest audience!<br />
<br />
So I am going to quilt shows, quilt Shop Hops. enjoying fall soccer games and foliage, not cleaning and looking forward to where life goes.<br />
<br />
Going on a Shop Hop to some stores I have never been too, why not, speaking to a guild in Bridgton, Me next week on my 43rd Anniversary, going on a quilt getaway to York, Me planned by a great friend and I do mean friend. Been allowed by another great friend to use her Sweet Sixteen Handiquilter sit down mid arm machine and whipping through those Comfort Quilt! She is also coming to the getaway that no one will no us! Imagine, if you are a seasoned quilter, usually the resident here to all, and knowing not one soul and they have no idea you could hep them! I may finally get something or not, done! I may be my own demon. <br />
<br />
See where this is going? Friends and quilting can help us get through life's biggest moments, can soothe and wounded soul and help give solace to others. Our emotions get channeled into positive results for others and may help us move forward and accept that life be assorted skipped stitches, broken needles, inaccurate measuring, and sometimes turns out better than expected.<br />
<br />
I will post the last three comfort quilts, T-shirt quilt I made for a friend and the Judy Neimeyer when they are done. Can't wait to move on to a new project!!<div class="blogger-post-footer">Come again!</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563129571571343760noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737744465043482381.post-3632212124650088902016-09-14T21:11:00.001-07:002016-09-14T21:21:33.537-07:00Reconnecting from disconnecting👏🏻All of us lead busy lives with some very organized and some just disconnected and needing to reconnect. Sometimes our choices put us on an unfamiliar path. I need to find my way down the yellow brick road to a path that says "I want to go home". Our family is passionate and sometimes it is hard to say I am sorry for going too far. It is called "Foot in Mouth" disease!<div>So following this notion that we can find our way back home I will try to be better in communicating as that is how paths get disconnected!</div><div>To help on this journey I decided my summer of reconnecting to what is important to me was to quilt for my community, because if we don't all decide to forgive and move forward how can anyone take another step?</div><div>My guild had a comfort workshop to put together kits from hundreds of yards and blocks of donated fabric this summer in anticipation of the next guild year. We made over 125 kits to give our 125 members. I took home orphan blocks made by numerous people that were donated. These members passed them forward like I do when I buy the persons behind me. I have said this before, I always get the people buying for the office but imagine someones surprise when this gift is given to them! I had someone do this nice thing for me and I still feel the glow of this generosity. Try it and see how you feel!</div><div>So to repent for past deeds that I need to reconnect from I created 11 comfort quilts to give to those who may be facing similar issues. Having my son work at the camp and building staging was a perfect quilt rack! Also loons on my lake seem to love my music from "Pink"! And quilts!</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO4UiZ9HI4ARYFZTFggrTibpOx8P8mkivfTV-t1J8APZeNOHzsIh-1bKeNzHfOd7OREfjZhpZj0T3ystnHhyphenhyphenrCCoSxfIl69AV-17U5aNJgOKNthkaR8XeUlBGebY0aAqbO54vk8BVeTEhY/s640/blogger-image-1103850199.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Again I write I am a terrible Blogger. There is so much to say that I can't remember what it was! All I know is that last month, 2 year renovation of new roof, ongoing siding, larger 1/2 bath and closet and major meltdown on Christmas night, about said closet and living like a hoarder, as our closet and laundry room were stacked behind a couch, off and on, for years! Tired and sick of wearing the same 5 outfits, all black, black! from a very colorful quilter? My wonderful husband almost finished the entire inside work but had to fly off for a business trip!<br />
I now have the most awesome closet ever! I appreciate the fact that he worked 12 hour days, hanging sheetrock, rearranging wiring, plastering, painting and putting together 4 Ikea closet systems, a major accomplishment!<br />

So, while the husband worked, I stayed home and quilted, brought 3, 2 sided quilts, for nieces and nephews, trying to purge myself of juvenile fabric, and only one more, sports this time, after a princess quilt, a superheroes quilt and and train one, to make. I did pick up a Skelton/day of the Dead quilt I made and will post all pictures when they are completed. I gave a completed one to a friend who always admired my work.<br />

Even with all these quilts and one more sports theme I have to make tomorrow, no dent in my stash. Maybe a spare inch on some shelves. I think it is growing in there even though I have tried not buy whim buy fabrics.<br />
<div>
The new fabrics, today, are so modern and upbeat it is hard to walk away.<br />
<br />
Why do we quilt?<br />
<br />
because we need to!<br />

<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
I recently did a talk for the Leominster Art Association, in Leominster, Ma. A very different group than my usual quilt guilds. There were more men in the room! Now my guild, that I am president of, has 5 male quilters, very talented and very precise and I am so glad they are with us. Quilting is an art for everyone and the more diverse our group the more people see the beauty of it.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
Art, in any form that we we choose to create takes many techniques. No matter how it is created, it represents our focus and creativity and it was a joy to reach out to a group who really understood what I want people to remember about me. We all want our personality to come through and when people see it and they know who created it, validation!</div>

Leominster Art Association models and their first night in a new facility!</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
My creations are fun!</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
But it only comes to life when someone wears them and prances around the room.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
That validation, is the best, and nothing compares when someone says your art inspired me or they ask me "what kind of dreams do you have?" as I am inspired by everything around me and events in my life that were negative or positive that I am still trying to work through .</div>
Yeah, embarrassed and admitted I was dumb!<br />
<br />

<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
I went to NEQM, New England Quilt Museum, with our Program Chair for their annual Meet the Teachers Day, as I was one of the presenters, and we rode together. I thought I was going home with her so I left my keys in her car, no pockets, an oversight of the major degree!, and she looked so tired, having organized my quilt guild Mystery Tour of 4 Massachusetts shops on the previous Saturday, so I sent her home. I got a ride with someone from Lunenburg back to my car and then realized I left my only set of keys in her car and she lived 40 miles away. Called my husband, Don, who drove me to meet her at the Sole Proprietor in Worcester to get my keys.</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
My life is always an adventure!!!!!! My life is one ongoing nightmare, fun time, quality time or meditative time. I hate to say nightmare time because some of those are more enjoyable than real life!</div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
Last week, my husband and I went to San Francisco to start our trip to Reno, Nevada for his conference, we left our car in the long term budget parking lot in Boston, got on the bus, where he asked for my license to go through customs. The night before a trip I always take all my id's and credit cards and scan them in the computer, front and back, and leave a copy at home in case they are stolen. I printed the cards and then put one copy in my carryon. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
On the bus I realized that I left all cards in my printer!!!!!!!!!!! But one my Docent card from the local museum I volunteer at. Husband not happy but a kindly customs official, trying to ward off husbands anger agreed with me that I did a stupid thing and had me searched but let me get on the plane to SFC and Napa, where I preceded to drink and be merry and send some wine home as well. </div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px;">
There are still good people in the world who forgive stupidity! and believe you. </div>

Many of us do not equate quilter= artist but we truly are. We take fabric and create masterpieces, works of art, comfort quilts, happy grand children smiles, stash reducing space, and group activity quilts that show we are united in our art. <br />
We use the basic logic, form, color, line, perceptive etc although most of us don't realize that is what we are doing!<br />
It is still scary, for a seasoned speaker, to go out of her comfort area, well I am on the fringes of that already!, but it would be nice to see familiar faces out there.<br />
New quilts, many jackets, pranced around, supporting quilts and of course, selvedge art will be presented.<br />
Still scared but so looking forward.<br />
as<br />

Jessica<div class="blogger-post-footer">Come again!</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563129571571343760noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737744465043482381.post-58403287445265615652015-08-24T19:19:00.001-07:002015-08-27T20:11:23.571-07:00Timeout and Boxes!Ok, I took a timeout from everything, friends, quilts, dusting, ..... well just about everything. That is what burn out does to you. I have finally realized that I can't do everything that others want me to do. I have done everything that I want to do and right now that is a timeout! I did make 2 Comfort quilts from old blocks that others had made and somehow I put them together in a way that is comforting, nor beautiful, but representing the energy of others, together in two quilt!<br />
<br />
I made another vertical fabric quilt, #3, in a series of leftover UFO fabric from 2002 and still have more fabric, it appears to be growing on one of my shelves, and generating somewhere in my studio! <br />
<br />
Speaking of my studio I rearranged again so I could actually see things. You try working in a 10' by 10' space with 2 windows, 3 major doorways, main bathroom, living room and the outside, and sew where the fabric is 9' feet high and cavelike! It is beautiful with the Loons visiting 15' away, the fish jumping and the waves lapping against the deck, pure bliss.<br />
<br />
On a funny note, the reason I partly named this blog partly Boxes is my 4 oldest grandchildren, 9 to 6, the other 2 are too young, yet, have been sleeping in boxes for a few weeks. Yes, they seem to be preparing for being displaced and the duct tape industry is flourishing. My son told me, his oldest son can't live without duct tape and recycled materials. He even made a horse that they ride around the house! Kids today are not afraid to experiment and recycle! Such a great world they will be creating.<br />
<br />
It has been a challenging summer! When you choose to opt out of everything. others have issues. All I know is that all of us need a timeout, especially when having to do things that are just too ....<br />
So I will never plan 2 quilt shows in a month, maybe never plan another one, ever, never let others dictate how something is completed and never take time away from my family and my time to create, again. It drains the creative juices that fuel and inspire us. It sends us down the path of a timeout!<br />
<br />
So a new Material Girls year is beginning with many challenges overcome, a new time to regenerate and reconnect with all the disconnect! But.............. time out was unexpected joy!<br />
<br />
Next speaking engagement will be the Leominster Art Association, Ma a varied group working in all mediums but especially photography and paint ing. What to say?!!!! Life always evolves in new paths and our art goes the way of the want and need to create, the need to finish, the need to move on, the need to just do.<br />

<br />
After posting the original blog I received an email saying that I was very misleading in the why the "modern" quilters left this guild and I apologize for any wrong impressions. Unfortunately that comment was made generically. <br />
<br />
I stand corrected that I should not have generalized about any individuals who leave a guild as I belong to three guilds and there are many reasons why they leave.<br />
<br />
I have removed that portion of the blog so not offend anyone as that is not my intention. Quilters should have fun and be about the art of quilting that we are so fortunate to have! I have seen issues of members leaving in my other guilds and as a current President of a guild and past president of another it is always appreciated by us to know why people leave so we can change and be more friendly.<br />
<br />

<br />
I have done many Selvedge Queen shows lately, 4, and the last 2 have been different! One set up their room as a Runway and one had so much enthusiasm, that it took my breath, my voice, away so I got an opportunity to take more pictures and my Daughter- in-law, Nadine, came and took a video of it! Everything seems to be video or UTube today?<br />
<br />
It was a small group, 40 members, with some meeting at night and others on a different day in the morning to accommodate their members schedule. I will send pictures so the members who were not present can see the program. <br />
<br />
Art 101, for those of us who never took art courses uses the principles of: perspective, form, line, shape, texture, color, focal point, pattern, balance and contrast. No matter what or how or why we create an element of these is seen to the viewer! This guild's show and tell really showcased this!<br />
<br />
It was a wonderful show at the Souhegan Valley Quilters Guild speaker night! Join them as they are a wonderful and inspiring guild and also much so fun! I will show you!<br />
<br />
With only 20 members present I was unsure of how many models I was going to have. The Program Chair had 2 lined up. I need four or five to show all 60 garments and quilts and selvedge stuff. So, after I spoke for 15 minutes about why I do this, the first 2 stood up, and then four, and then 9, almost half of those present. They put on all al the garments, pranced around, and were done the runway show in 15 minutes and then I had 40 minutes to talk and talk I did and then some, about the 'Who, What. Why of being a Selvedge Queen" so it was a wonderful night of laughter and a new experience for me to see so many people wearing my garments at the same time.<br />
<br />
I love the unexepected! Don't you!<br />

Marble, columns, velvet yellow drapes, inspiring moldings, trim work and best of all, a red carpet! The Program Chair really got onto the spirit of the Runway Show and literally created one by having the hall seats face each other and a rented red carpet down the ycenter. She, a guild member and I had a great supper and then these 2 ladies hauled, yes, hauled, my heavy trunk show up 3 or 4 granite stairs to get it into the hall, across a granite patio. Each of the bags weight between 20 and 80 pounds so we worked off dinner right away!<br />
<br />
One of my 2 dinner companions, at dinner, mentioned how she labels her quilts. She numbered them from the start and now she knows exactly how many quilts she has made! Great idea as many of us have no idea how many quilts we mad,ne!<br />
<br />
As I sat through their business meeting and Show and Tell I feel comfort in knowing that all guilds face the same issues as the 3 I am involved with, need volunteers, help with the quilt show, Comfort quilts and so many cooperative people working together to solve any issues that arise. We are quilters, a wonderful rare breed!<br />
<br />
The models were feisty, spirited and pranced the night away! I wish I would have taken a video!<br />
<br />
I think a quilt should be made with the universal motifs that decorate this building, they wold also make awesome quilting motifs!<br />
<br />
As always the ride home was eventful with a turkey or pheasant flying into my car and demon eyed fuzzy fox almost getting his tail clipped! This is the third time and have had a fox run in front of me on my ride home! <br />
Can't wait for the warm weather to arrive.....<br />

A beautiful ride and awesome sunset and falling star on my way home. Great idea for the Program Chair to take me out to dinner because most of us come to your towns and don't know where to eat, especially, if you just driven 2 or 3 hours. I usually drive thru McDonald's!<br />
I am always amazed how helpful members are in dragging my heavy suitcases in for my trunk show and always thankful! especially grateful, when they pack it all back up and help lug it out into the car! <br />
I calculated that there is 3000 yards of fabric in my coats and quilts and misc stuff I bring.<br />
The hats were a big hit and many members wore them with different jackets !<br />
I am so thankful to be asked as it allows me, over and over again, of how much I have created but it also puts pressure to create something new!<br />
I made a Creature Comfort vest, yes, a swamp vest, this week because I bought an alligator rhinestone necklace that needed a vest to show it off! I made an alligator soft sculpture scarf to wear too! Just need to sew the teeth and claws on it before I post!<br />
more later........<br />

<div class="blogger-post-footer">Come again!</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563129571571343760noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737744465043482381.post-32095748694047654242015-04-22T05:59:00.003-07:002015-04-23T05:59:02.255-07:00Hitting the wall!Back again<br />
Have you ever had a span of a day or weeks where you are so busy doing multiple things and then, one night, you hit the wall!<br />
In the last 2 weeks; (pictures will follow of these events)<br />
I planned and hung a quilt show at the Fitchburg Art Museum, and volunteered to make a floral interpretation os an African Mask during Art in Bloom<br />
Made colonial era dress for my grand daughter and my daughter-in-law<br />
Did a Selvedge Queen Trunk show in Waterford, CT, far away<br />
Planning a tea for our Museum's Founder for 40 people<br />
Did my President thing at Material Girls Quilt Guild meeting<br />
Brought my oldest sister, finally, for hearing aids, long in coming<br />
I spent 5 long hours in Ikea with 15 month old grandson to buy all the bathroom fixtures for renovation. Imagine pushing a carriage and and cart with all kinds on boxes and asking a 15 month old to hold on to it and he did!<br />
Cleaned out every closet in my small camp and stacked the stuff everywhere in my small camp for Plumber to finally begin our renovation again. No more lone toilet sitting in the middle of the closet. Entire inside of camp incased in plastic dust walls!<br />
Packed for a quilting getaway with another guild. The only thing I sewed for my self were 2 elephant pillow cases and a NICU blanket.<br />
My other sister hit me up to make another arm sleeve, to cover puppeteers arm, for a puppet. This was puppet number 4. I spent 4 hours attaching an arm sleeve to a rubber flower! You can't sew through rubber. I told her no more! Puppets were not my passion!<br />
I was tired, I did not pay attention to another member's request to help machine quilt a "small" lap quilt for the hotel owner's 80th birthday. So flippantly I said that if no one else volunteered I would! Ha! twin sized and it took me 7 hours to quilt on a very small travel Janome with 4.5" space between needle and side of machine. I never quilt even my own!<br />
I need a getaway from the getaway!<br />
<br />
The best part of the week was doing my Selvedge Queen talk to the Clamshell Quilt Guild in Waterford, Ct. I was able to meet some people before as they invited me to dinner, great ides because the speakers travel far and wide and this is not a familiar place so we tend to drive through places to get fast food. Ride was long and I got lost but many people helped wheel my show in and unpacked. When it came to time to pack up again they did it all and actually the bags had extra room in some of! Impressive. They have a male President and, I have had a male model before at A Quilters Gathering 2 years ago, I thought it would be great if he modeled too! He did and he was awesome, such a good sport as his members really laughed oveytime he went around the room.<br />
<br />
The one great thing about doing trunks show is that you meet such wonderful people and I always try to stay for the meeting and show and tell. It makes me realize that you may believe your guild is the only one that needs more volunteers, money, fundraisers, etc. But i see that we have all the same issues and it is always great to see how others resolve theirs.<br />
Enjoy the sunshine<br />

Just don't want it anymore as this winter was brutal. I live on a lake and our Heron returned and I watched him try to find open water, what he did find was some ones ice fishing hole!<br />
<br />
I have been to 3 getaways and worked on the same Judi Niemeyer quilt at each and will bring it to my next one too! I am making my son and his wife a queen size one and even though paper piecing is accurate it takes time.<br />
<br />
This week I am curating a quilt show with the Material Girls Quilt Guild at the annual Art in Bloom weekend at the Fitchburg Art Museum, where I am a docent as well and also interpreting an African Mask with my handwoven basket, using batik wax prints selvedges, of course, and dried material and a lone white orchid. I will send pictures after I finish it and hang the show!<br />
<br />
I have been fixated on the Sci Fi Channel, disaster movies and the Vikings. I guess a long winter will force you to feel better by watching this!<br />
<br />
I will be making my grand daughter a Colonial dress for her class's special week on reliving this historic period. She told her teacher that her "member" would make her a special dress and wants it in purple! I guess you could say that a eggplant could have been used for a dyeing compound! Also she wants to be a lady......... don't even want to think about the reason.... maybe she doesn't want to do house work like me...........<br />
I made 2 quilts for Art in Bloom and have almost finished a raffle quilt for an environmental group, WEST, in my area, that is being saluted for its 25 year of local diligence. To think that they formed, when I was a Selectwoman and I can't believe it was so long ago. Time flies when you are really living it!<br />
<br />
Please check out these websites as they are quilt shows that I am hanging and also showing my work. Of course I have entered a vest that is still wandering around in my head so it can be started. Think alligators! fitchburgartmuseum.org, materialgirlsquiltguild.org and quilters connection.org, for info and dates and times.<br />
<br />
If you are looking to see one of my talks please check out the calendar that I am in the process of revising! (I have to figure out to do that and then it will get posted!"<br />
<br />
I have gotten better with my procrastination complex and have thing done at least 2 weeks before they are due. We should congratulate ourselves when we actually do it! In the middle of closet renovation and went to IKEA today and bought what I need in anticipation of the plummer and electrician and son, the contractor coming soon. Just like the real spring, flowers, raking black flies will be too.<br />
<br />
Enjoy<br />

I know I said I would write more and go to the gym, well....... didn't happen yet. The good thing about making and keeping resolutions is that you can stop and start many times as long as you keep trying. There are 2 songs on the radio about the word Try and one, by Colbie Callait, has to do with accepting and liking yourself, that you "don't have so try so hard" because you should like yourself and the second is about continuing to try, by Pink, no matter what. So I will go to the gym as soon as the snow stops falling a foot at a time and I will try, and see, I am writing! Trying........<br />

Since last I wrote I went on a getaway, 10 miles from my camp and house and I did stay for 3 days. Much better to stay at the getaway as you can sew for 14 hours straight and get a lot finished!<br />
<br />
Made a "Monster" quilt for a new grandson, Reese, who will be arriving in February and I recontinued, a new word,<br />

Meanwhile, the husband has been gone since January 4th and does not return until February 7th, so I have been shoveling 40 some odd steps, uphill, 2 decks and path up the driveway. He bought me an easy small blower to do the decks and lower walkways but the problem is the snow, rushes and twirls like a tornado, across the lake and hits me front and center. The snowblower's vent is tilted toward the lake and, thus, it blows back and I end up looking like the abominable Grinch or elephant depending on which hat I grab!<br />
<br />
I also made 2 more "Minkie" blankets, one for new grandson, Reese, and one extra, in case someone has a baby boy as I do have an extra "girl" one from when everyone seemed to have girls. First time I am ahead of the baby gifts. Quilt and Minkie blankie!<br />
<br />
Decided the Grinch bedding and Grinch and Snow Miser and Heat Miser critters had to go into hibernation and will now make Zebra pillow cases for 8 bed pillows to match the African theme going on in there still. The grass bedskirt needs to go as it is falling apart and will try to figure out how to get the 2 queen size Memory Foam mattresses off the bed to put a new linen bedskirt on I have planned to make, notice the word, planned!<br />
<br />
Patriots won and I held my iPad up to the Tv so my husband, who is in China, could watch the final winning moments, exciting plays for both teams!!!! I did not watch the beginning as I was watching "Best In Show" dog movie and I don't really like dog movie but this one is special! Plus I am not into football!<br />
<br />
Well, now to watch the weather and plan my fashion wardrobe for tomorrows shoveling!<br />

Welcome to my world. I live in a rural area, camp sits in the lake and wind howls across the ice. The road is 1 lane, dirt, mud, ice dams and curvy and all seem to drive fast so you spend time in ditches. The weather is special here, always 10 degrees below normal, define normal?, and no one ever just drops by, the best part of being isolated. My daughter has a fit overytime she has to drag her 3 children down the steep driveway, unplowed, as husband is in Korea or somewhere over there, calling me "woman" how can you live here and my son is always needed here as issues in winter are daily and need his assistance. The best thing is that it is beautiful here and no one expects me to be anywhere in bad weather so I can stay home and create.<br />
<br />
Winter, summer, my shoveling outfit, picture of camp from the water in summer. I have lived here for 12 years and never been on or in the water but now that the ice has finally frozen I plan to snowshoe with the ones I got from Santa and plan to learn to walk with them. New titanium knees are awesome and so glad I did not wait another 10 years to have the 2 surgeries. If I knew how great it would feel I would have had them down 10 years ago. No one should live in pain!<br />

Only outside connection is from husband who uses Facetime and asks why I did not put my makeup on and why I am still in my PJ's. No matter where in the world we are someone can reach out and touch or talk!<br />
<br />
Current projects are the Mystery quilt from the Material Girls Quilt Guild that started in September 2014 and so glad I did not wait until the last week before the deadline to create. Small pieces, lots of them and I just realized I ran out of the accent fabric that I have had for 10 years so need a hint on what to do?????<br />
<br />
Going to a quilting getaway only 10 miles away! Still a retreat as I will at least not be here, no prairie wife routine of dragging wood in for the wood stove to heat and no icy driveway, no cooking packaged noodles and canned veggies and will actually be normal for 3 days, what is normal remind me?! Brinigng monster fused quilt that I am making for new grandson Reece who will be born in February and also his parents new queen bed quilt that is paper pieced, oh please help! and not brining the Mystery quilt pieces as need to find fabric! Why, always an issue, always drama. <br />
<br />
My mother in law's favorite hobby is cleaning every inch in her condo. Well I have always told her that cleaning is hazardous to her her health and I was proven right when she broke her hip this week.<br />
<br />
Stay warm, create, eat, drink and be happy that we have the ability to make wonderful things.<br />

PS; maybe, if I can something done this weekend ,I will post pictures!!!<br />
. <div class="blogger-post-footer">Come again!</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563129571571343760noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737744465043482381.post-44468023660862678022014-12-30T20:33:00.000-08:002014-12-30T22:11:43.615-08:00New Years day before? Give, donate, NOW! MOST IMPORTANT DO SOMETHING PERSONAL FOR SOMEONE OU CARE ABOUTIt is the night before New Years<br />
and I am writing of promising deeds<br />
to diet, to sleep, to donate to others needs?<br />
Yes! to all, and to all a good night<br />
but not the night where we decide our ongoing, always ongoing, fight...<br />
to do for ourselves, to starve and exercise or just do what is right<br />
Give, give give give, just do<br />
But to who<br />
I choose the ones who are close, the ones you see, and you<br />
must decide but just do.<br />
<br />
I went to NYC this weekend and saw many in need, the homeless sleeping in Central Park in the area commemorating John Lennon, my favorite artist, in Strawberry Fields, a quiet zone of contemplation with my son, Lucas, and daughter in law, Nadine, and grand children Elexis, who turned 9 that day and this was her first wish for her birthday and grandson, Nolan, all sat and listened while a homeless person sang, Strawberry Fields" forever...... to the crowd and all were moved. We can't solve the problem but we can add some help to our local area.<br />
<br />
I took my youngest grand daughter shopping for a Christmas dress and as we were leaving the store a Salvation Army Volunteer was ringing the bell. I gave her some money and at 5, she was thrilled to have real cash in her hand, until l I asked her if she had wonderful parents, a great Memere, me! and a nice home and toys to play with? Her big eyes grew larger, pooled with uncertainty and I asked, we should give to others who do not. Scared as she was of the volunteer, she placed the clutched money into the jar. As we were leaving she looked back, as the volunteer kept ringing, and, I realized that donating, and giving, should go on all year.<br />
So I ask all all of us, not just you. but me too, to try to give always, every month, overytime you realize someone just needs the money, the time, our precious time, that is so needed, give the fabric, the tools, the WHAT that is needed.<br />
If we don't help ourselves and our family, those all around us, who will?<br />
So not everyone in need needs money from us. Some just need a nice thought. So sometimes, just sometimes, buy someone a coffee, in line behind you, maybe, maybe, buy someones's purchases behind you, smile at the the person next to you or say have a great day to the next person you meet. If you were that person who receives such a personal gift, would your day be merry, would you smile, would you think, that maybe, maybe, that was the greatest gift of all, the unexpected, the surprise, the one that made you smile and be grateful, the one that said, pass it along, maybe, maybe.......................<br />
Happy New Year<br />

<br />
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU CAN DO AT THIS TIME IS TO GIVE TIME, yourself..... TO SOMEONE, anyone, WHO HAS BEEN WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO GET FINISHED, TO SOMETHING THAT SOMEONE ESLE WANTS BECAUSE, MONEY IS EASY TO GIVE SOMETIMES, BUT TIME = ETERNITY!<br />
Please give the time to someone you love because we have been waiting for "pretty soon now"forever!<div class="blogger-post-footer">Come again!</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563129571571343760noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737744465043482381.post-16622565184738070242014-12-24T20:04:00.003-08:002014-12-29T19:10:03.211-08:00Happy Holiday Eve!Happy Holidays to all and to all a great night and hope all projects have come to an end! I finished all I started and then some at 8:45 PM. An early night compared to other years! I made a Grinch vest out of a recycled flying cupids vest I made 10 years ago because I never wore it, ugly as anything you can imagine. I made this as President of Material Girls Quilt Guild of Central Mass for our Grinch party! Everyone entered the spirit of the Grinch who learns the real meaning of Christmas. One, not found in packages, presents but in your heart! it was a great times!<br>
<br>
Have you been sewing.......<br>
<br>
Twas the night before Christmas and all thrue the sewing room<br>
Not a rodent was stirring, not under the vacant moon<br>
I, in my fuzzy leopard PJ's with thread all attached<br>
wondered, did I finish, is it done, does it match???<br>
When, what does my wandering mind focus on?<br>
I am done, have I finished, please, tell me husband Don?<br>
The 8 stockings, 18 pillowcases, to wrap presents for us and our guild<br>
the 2 ties for Nolan, I am finished until<br>
he asks for another, Aliens, the theme<br>
and I think, can I make it without making a scene?<br>
I do, then the American doll dresses, 3, that to buy cost so much<br>
I decide, how!, can they cost so much?<br>
Until I spend a morning, mourning my time<br>
that it took me to create them, I hear the bells chime!<br>
So I embroidered 4 bags, 12 monogrammed shirts for all ages,<br>
my husband, the Don, wrapped presents for all and now these pages<br>
are about what is done, finished, completed did I complete?<br>
the 2 stockings for grandson Mason and grand god niece Katelyn? I'm beat!<br>the 18 pillowcases to wrap all the presents I made<br>
I want the holidays to be merry and there's still another day!<br>
but the best things I created are 6 awesome Dragons<br>
for 5 and 1.50 grandchildren, I love and well I just love Dragons!<br>
I created a Christening dress out of my sisters 40 year old wedding one<br>
and lo and behold a new Princess has begun<br>
I made 2 bags for folding concert tables for a friend<br>
in the middle of a crisis of how to finish all and then<br>
another friend asked for me to decapitate a dog,<br>
off a holiday stocking, and replace it by by decapitating a stuffed Snoopy, and attaching his head to the stocking, and to my Blog<br>
I must finish, but I used the decapitated head of the dog<br>
for my Grinch deconstructed vest, as his dog Maxxxx, I remade it and I lite up the room<br>
as good cheer and fun times and the spirit of holidays, Boom!!<br>
I realized that Christmas is a wonderful time to get rid of fabric from my fabric room<br>
Sew merry holiday to all<br>
New Years, be great, for all and have a ball!<br>
<br>
I will just be sleeping!<br>
love ya! Jessica<br>

<br />
I like to write and create but lately all I seem to do is organize, not a regular item on my dance card, yet, for some reason I need to finally do some of the things I put off.<br />
I joined the Material Girls Quilt Guild in 2002 and proceeded to do every Strip Robin, Challenge, Friendship blocks, Log Cabin Swap, make a portrait of yourself, work on issues, and petals for years. Some I have actually finished! Some are still UFO's but I made of binder of all the project sheets and or patterns and then spent 3 days and 3 packages of ink to print the pictures. I actually found the sheets for most and the quilts or UFO's for them too!<br />
1st quilt, hand appliquéd and quilted 2003, never again....<br />
Next 3 petal quilts although I have made 5!<br />
Assorted strip and round robins, almost all of them competed but 1!<br />
Oops! 2 more were completed but not on this blog.<br />
Assorted Friendship blocks, BOM, Challenges, special events quilts too.<br />
The only UFO's left are the Friendships blocks of my face and hands! I know I like to have images of myself, like a Egyptain Kings! <br />
The one Strip Robin left is a 5 panel one that is simple to finish, why haven't I done that? <br />
I also have Crazy Quilt swap blocks from 3 years that will go together with some antique ones I bought at an auction. <br />
I have a set of blocks from another Friendship block that look like stain glass windows and are paper pieced. I thought I would make every block in the book to make a large quilt but I am rethinking that!<br />
I started a King size quilt for son and daughter in law that needs to get done sooner than most of the rest of these thing but I also found 4 quilts all sandwiched and ready to quilt, maybe those should just get done. What do you think?<br />
<br />
<br />
You will have to figure out which picture goes with which type of project!<br />
<br />
I thought my UFO's would have been more but I guess I do finish most things.<br />

I was too busy traveling to just stop and really smell the flowers!<br />
<br />
Getting ready for my second Knee replacement surgery and winding up paperwork, packing, again, and getting ready to attend my first 2014-2015 Material Girls Quilt Guild Board meeting as its new President. A job I have done before but we have so many new members it will be a different experience! Love those unexpected, unplanned things that occur in our lives and make us all aware that we need each other to get things accomplished!<br />
<br />
I will be attending the next new England Quilt Museum, meet the Teachers Program day on September 19, 2014, with my dazzle dazzle cane, that my oldest grand daughter and her mom picked out for me! This is one of the best events they started a few years ago because as a past program chair it is very hard to pick a speakers your guild will enjoy without ever seeing or hearing their lecture. Plus you get to see the current exhibit at the museum as well!<br />
<br />
Still have not been very creative but i do have some ideas on my next Selvedge Queen vest and the jewelry to match! Always have to have the accessories in hand!<br />
<br />

It was great to leave as all it did was rain for weeks! My 60th birthday, which was already celebrated at Memorial Day really happened while I was sipping a huge glass of Danish beer in Copenhagen at Tivoli Gardens! Awesome flowers, amusements and perfect weather!! After 3 days we boarded our Azamara cruise for Germany, Poland, Estonia, St. Petersburg, Helsinki and Stockholm where we spent 2 extra days sightseeing!!<br />

We returned and I went to NYC with some of my family for 3 days, where my grandchildren 8 and 6 wanted to go to Central Park to see John Lennon's Strawberry Fields quiet Memorial where we sang, with a crowd, Imagine. Off to see Natural History Museum, our favorite, and then to I went to see the musical, Kinky Boots. Another great awesome vacation.<br />

<br />
Came home and went to Ogunquit, Me with my sisters and family, perfect weather week, beach was invigorating! Water, frigid!<br />
<br />
To Loon Mtns, NH with entire family for a few days and finally relaxing in Boothbay Harbor, Me with friends to chill out from all the fun and get ready for 2nd knee replacement!<br />
<br />
On the quilting side, my motivation has not been there and nothing but dust collecting in my sewing room. I do have some Selvedge Queen talks in the Fall and Spring and I hope that jump starts my creativity. Hard to be diligent and sit down and sew when the water and sun calls out to visit...<div class="blogger-post-footer">Come again!</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07563129571571343760noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2737744465043482381.post-74513956562685615932014-06-10T18:56:00.002-07:002014-06-10T18:56:34.404-07:00Life changesI think everyday is an opportunity for change and while, this can be good, it is mostly stressful! My life is ever-changing and evolving and I love the fact that are unexpected things happening because I never take for granted that my day will be the same as yesterday. It never is.<br />
Today I had 20 Docents and staff from the Fitchburg Art Museum for an end of the year celebration of things accomplished!<br />
Tomorrow I will give my Selvedgequeen talk to the Cheshire Quilt Gulld in Keene , NH and look forward to the visit! Love the JoAnns there and love the Mill Yard Shopping Center where many different stores are. I shop there many times! <br />
I never realized knee surgery would add to my laid back approach I have developed to sewing. I need to get back in the path I always had but never realized how fortunate I was to have a path. I have started the basic Judy Nemeyer Desert Star quilt to make for my son and family, easy but I need to sit down and sew.<br />
grandchildren I staying, all 4, for the weekend. Mason is just to little at over5 months! He loves his mommy, Marisa. I have planned tshirt painting projects and canvas painting projects for their Fathers for Fathers Day. I think most of us have alternative things that our children would love to play with and it is time to use them!<br />
I will post pictures of stuff they actually sit down and make. I find that when they come here they love to trade the Yellow Brock Road ups nd down constantly. Plus they did everywhere, so watch your step! We have no yellow bricks but all know Memere's love of the Wizard of Oz and also love to just play. <br />
Don't you wish you could play like a child. Just decide to do something out of your box, use some of those products you buy, just do something outrageous! YES, I wilL!<br />

My kids had every quest and relative write a story about me! They were truthful and said what happened and I was amazed they did not exaggerate! Mnay do but my kids were surprised at what was written as they thought I had embellished! If they only knew the full truth!……..NEVER<br />

A very busy week, a very busy life, a very busy family and friends! You know, it is hard to be, really be, a family member, especially ours. We love each other, help each other and the most important thing a family is and does, is<strike></strike> be there for each other. It takes time, money to travel and it takes a special person to recognize that a family is a living thing and, a great family, as mine is, knows that, appreciates that we are given a gift of love and family. You are there everyday, every event, you go out of your way to realize that family takes precedence over everything. Personal ills and or conflicts, and trust me there are conflicts! I call our family, the PACK! Wolves run in a pack and we are not wolves but we are strong and aggressive and all of us need time that needs to be spent in the best possible way as we are too busy. They can be wonderful when pushed to the limit! Family must come first! So thank you to everyone who came to my 60th birthday!!! To some of those, who could not make it, I understand. Life interferes. Some did not want to come to celebrate and that we could understand.<br />

Now to the Quilters Connection Quilt Show! I hope some of you have the opportunity to come to our art quilt show as it is awesome! I designed the layout and the design of the show so if you hate it or have issues let me know. If you loved it let me know! It takes a lot of work to put on a quilt show and my part took at least 40 hours of time to determine the amount of quilt racks we need, as this costs your guild money, and also, in this facility, of multiple floors, where is it going and how it all looks in the end. We had 50 extra quilts and 2 less rooms and I think it looks great! Biased of course! Think of all the work the Quilt show Chair did, publicity which is crucial and the quilters themselves, up against a deadline to finish their quilts! My family comes to all my events and I am so glad my grandchildren look forward to the picture puzzles, given at this quilt show, to help them look for items in our quilts that are listed. If quilters want parents with children to come, all should give them a fun activity to do and as a docent in a museum, It helps them look at the pieces and helps all to really see them! <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdii1q9Oetx5JxmGO9G3fyXyBkVxZH9Rj2tjODwX1mG7V8F9oKX4Xsq1i0MwRbewojeHpJ8C7TyXPjA4QbapOI-vl3TzUbUzwAmJB4JRQoiStod0n3CJPXh16PJlargYo7Y-M8Tz730k9o/s1600/IMG_2062.JPG" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdii1q9Oetx5JxmGO9G3fyXyBkVxZH9Rj2tjODwX1mG7V8F9oKX4Xsq1i0MwRbewojeHpJ8C7TyXPjA4QbapOI-vl3TzUbUzwAmJB4JRQoiStod0n3CJPXh16PJlargYo7Y-M8Tz730k9o/s320/IMG_2062.JPG" /></a><br />

I have 1 quilt and 2 garments, already tagged in a previous Blog. I have not sewn much since my knee surgery as this takes more than 3 months to have all back to sewing mode but I did make a Selvedge bunny that may look like something else, so I billed it as a Selvedge Animal for a charity auction to raise funds for numerous textile non profits. You know, we are all luck we have museums, and event like quilt shows, local quilts shops, local markets and store and many events offered in your community but if you do not support them, attend then they will disappear and you will miss them! They need your support to continue as do charities but giving to your community to keep it vibrant is everything!<br />

Like I said a busy week! I must say I did hit the wall after the 60th party, revived by the QC Quilt show and will crash again and then have the Fitchburg Art Museum Docent end of the year party, which every time I host it, it rains and is very cold, in June. No one has ever seen my awesome view!<br />

Quilters husbands are an amazing group and mine is the Macgyver of all! He can plan a quilt show, hang it and take it down! Now, all is not perfect as a lot of negative words can and are directed but he does it again and again and now tells me never again! Boo whoo, we will work on that! <br />
<br />
<br />
We will work on a lot of thing especially getting back to sewing and stuff. Life is not worth value unless you push yourself to do it all, sometimes at your expense, but it is so worth it in the end! I now I live that way and am so blessed!<br />

He had just married my mother and did not know she was pregnant and she was told he was MIA. He landed in a tree, followed a young girl to her home, displayed his Crucifix, praying they were Catholic,so they could help him, which they did. He ended up in the Russian Army and came home in time for my sister Lynda's birth. He wrote about his story and almost had a television program about his time in the war on "Twelve O'Clock High" but he died right before he signed the contract. He was also going to redo his steps with his flight crew in Poland but died.. He died 25 years to the day that he returned to my mothers surprise and birth of my sister. I have his pictures, his story and war momentous but I was too young to ask what he did in the war as he died when I was 13. I go to cemeteries because it proved they lived, not died. I see no death there only life eternal.<br />
<br />
I just watched "Memorial Day" on TV and at the end he says he was thankful that someone forced him to to talk about his war days as the stories live on and can help those moving forward in this strange and changing world we live in.<br />
To all who are serving, have served or who have memorials to their lives, I say thank you!!!!!! Thank you for your service, making my life better and safer, but thanking you because you care enough to do that.<br />
<br />
I was given a 60th birthday party this weekend by my wonderful family. All families should be like mine. We are there for each other, help each other, see each other, go out of our way for each other and celebrate the good and bad times together. Whether they are friends or true blood they will move heaven and earth to be there for you, not talk about it or be selfish about it whatever there lives may hold, they are just there and MINE is and was!<br />
I am so thankful.<br />

<br />
So everyday we are to be there, in person, to help the ones we love. No excuses when it comes to family, ever. No matter what turmoil your life is in there are people out there you can connect and just be there for them. We all have stuff in our lives, whether true or imagined, but family is constant. I miss my father every day and think about him and my mother, who I talk about in my Selvedge Queen speaker program. I thank them daily for the good and negative they may have instilled in me. I wish for one more day with them so I can ask them stories of their lives.<br />
<br />
Be brave, ask your loved ones for some stories……<br />
