Kitchens & Baby Steps

It�s all in the little things.

Shelf and drawer liner is a heinous job, but it put things RIGHT in the kitchen at Quiltville Inn yesterday.

If I can get the kitchen cupboards, cabinets and drawers lined, then I can begin the washing up and placing in of all of the kitchen gadgets that will make this kitchen a happy place for all those who come to stay here.

Heck, if I get the kitchen set up so it is fully operational, I just may move in myself and give it a trial run. Coffee makers, crock pots, pots and pans, baking pans, casserole dishes, and everything anyone could want have been gathered over the past 6 months or so � all new.

The orange handled cooking utensils I purchased with Mona on our trip to Asheville in the spring. I always wanted some like this � they have a bend in the handle that will rest on the edge of the pot without the ladle or spoon sliding into the stew so you have to go swimming for it.

The gifted towel reads: �Here in the SOUTH we don�t hide CRAZY � we parade it on the front porch and give it a cocktail!� LOL! Oh, I love this!

Yesterday was a busy travel day for me, on the way to the Indianapolis airport by 7am, making my connection in Atlanta and home by early afternoon. It didn�t give me much chance to write a veteran�s memorial post the way I wanted to, so like the federal agencies mentioned above, I�m observing TODAY and keeping these folks in my thoughts. While not a typical veteran herself, my grandmother was raising small children while her husband, my grandfather was in the US Navy. This picture was taken in 1943 when grandpa was serving as a Naval Officer in the South Pacific. She occasionally earned m...

As seen in Houston!! An On Ringo Lake Mini! Made by Inna Rohrberg from Germany. This has me so blown away, and I want to thank those who have sent photos from Houston while I was in Indiana! It�s one thing to take the time to make a big quilt, but the painstaking business of redrafting that big quilt down to mini and piecing it? WOW! Inna, I love your quilt � it is perfect in every way!

A Box Kite Retreat Day to Play!

Image
So many Box Kite Blocks! The quilters started arriving early! By 7:30 am they were pulling in, anxious to set up their work stations and getting ready for our Box Kite workshop from the Addicted to Scraps book that would fill our afternoon with abundant scrappy fun! And if they happened to find there was not quite enough variety in the stash they brought, they could easily dive into this and come up with something interesting to add to their mix: Did You Click to Read the Whole Story?
