MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

A day of mumblings

Alas, I have no pictures for you today.  The work on the Quilt-zzzzz continues along with two borders remaining to sew and the king-size top will be done.  There's a grand shovel-out happening in the studio at Chez Magpie as well in order to make room for an overnight visit from #1 son, daughter-in-love and grandson.  Sharing my creative space with the spare bedroom means something's gotta give so there's room for them to sleep!



Today I will give you a quote from Thomas Campbell.... "To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die"

  2. Good luck with your grand shovel out, but you will have lots of fun with your family visiting.
    I'm doing a little organizing too, if that helps.
    Happy Friday!

  4. Have fun with your little grandson! I adore all my grandchildren, but there's just something special about little boys! I love visiting in their world of trucks, dinosaurs, dirt and monsters!

  5. I love that quote - it's so true.
    I wish you good luck with the clear-out, and a wonderful visit - I did the very same thing for the same reasons last weekend myself!

  7. Leslie Erhlich was a close friend of mine. Thank you for mentioning her on your blog. I am heartbroken, that I will no longer hear her voice on the phone, or be able to share my crazy quilt projects with her, and have her help in pointing me in the right direction when I might be stumped, or need inspiration. She will be missed for evermore, and is a great loss to me and the rest of the crazy quilting world.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
