Secrets from Louisiana

So glad you have stopped by for a visit. We have many secrets here in Louisiana. We are a quilters haven because of all the interesting things we have in our environment to see, smell,taste and feel. Our flowers are like perfume in the evening and the colors explode in your eyes. Our seafood is the best in the world and is bountiful from the Gulf.

The palette is non stopping.

Ready for Retreat

We are going to Branson MO. tomorrow for a 7 day retreat. WHOHOO We have 18 ladies coming to the Comfort Inn of the Hills. We have been doing this for a lot of years and pretty much have the same 18 to 23 attending. Some of us are getting older but are still plugging along, that's what quilting will do for you.
Andre and I will be flying to Sisters Oregon in July to join Steph and Kathy for a week of sewing and the super quilt show. We will be flying on the 10th and returning on the 17th of July. I haven't been in several years so am really looking forward to the trip.
Steve's Birthday is this week so I took him to lunch today , big 72 man is he old are what???

Sorry for the Leave of Absence

Good afternoon a lot has happened since my last post. More ice and more ice and freezing weather. Today we will be back in the 30's and it is the middle of March. I am getting ready for the retreat in Branson Mo. 9 more days. I am packed and will finish up a few things here at home.


Andre and myself will fly to Sisters Or in July to join Steph and Kathy for a week of quilting and of course the quilt show. We are looking for flights now. Steve and I will be in Marble Falls in April and then on To Colorado Springs towing Hank's car for repairs. Don't ask I know isn't there anything closer?????


Have been really quilting and reading what to do in cold weather and putting logs in the wood stove.


Our health is good and we celebrated our 49 wedding Anni. on FEb 27th. whowho


We laugh a lot about getting older ( I am fighting it tooth and nail) As Steve says we sometimes wobble but we try not to fall down.
