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.

Hello From Texas

Good morning all ! We are in Weatherford Texas for a week visiting friends in the area. Yes I am quilting, finishing a new quilt that needs its binding done. Half way around,  it by hand. I usually do this on the machine. My on the road machine just bounced around one time to many. I will be adding another machine when I get home.


My sweet little Hank will graduate LSU 15th in premed. Scored high enough to apply to med school. He is now 21 years old, can't believe. Nicolas is 11 and Naomi is 10.  They are the nicest kiddo's, well behaved and great manners. I get them a week at a time when they come  because of Michael's job.


I am getting ready to schedule Retreat in March next year. Let me know if you are interested. Would you like to go to Louisiana? I can get us a really sweet deal at a new state park. Cost would be about 1/4 of the hotel cost. Let me know.


Hugs ,

Still Freezing

This is a heads up for those who check on my Blog from time to time, we will probably go on Retreat next year. looking for a new place or will return to the Comfort Inn depending on the deal I can get. I will try to get it as cheaply priced as possible.
  • We have had a good winter, just celebrated our 50th wedding anniversity last Friday. Andre called to say my warranity ran out so now for the next 27 tears we are on extended. She is so funny her husband has  the big A and is not easy to deal with. She calls about 4 time a week.  everything else is good. I have a quilt sale this weekend. could have gone today but really 27 degrees and outdoors with a 24 mile per hour wind. This little chunky monkey is staying near the wood stove.
Have a great weekend. Live you guys.

Welcome Back

Where have I been? At the sewing machine finishing Marilyn's two custom twin quilts and shams., completing the 3 quilt tops I made at Steph's in Sisters Oregon with the posse, making a new interior for the bus(quilt pillow cases, pillows for the sofa, new bluebird quilt for the computer table over the steering wheel, and designed and pieced 5 more quilts, and took 3 trips in the bus. That's my story and I am sticking with it.


We are parked on the Mississippi River RV park in Vidalia La. for a week celebrating Mardi Gras with 20 of our old and new friends. Pictures on Instagram and Facebook. Yes that is me with the puffed limegreen vest and purple hat with big rhinestone pin on the front with wild hair sticking out. You have the picture correct?


Hope you guys are staying warm and sewing a lot this winter. Let me hear from you when you take a break from sewing.


Hugs Patticake.


PS Little Hank is graduating from LSU May 15th and scored high enough to qualify to medical school. WHOOHOO
