I've been a quilter for about 9 years. I'm not one of those rabid quilters (yes, you know who you are, and there's nothing wrong with being a rabid quilter!), but more of an off-and-on, occassional quilter. I've only completed 2 quilts....hmmmmm, maybe I'm more of an "off" quilter! I've got 3 quilts in progress - #1 is the Africa Quilt, which I've been working on since I was posted in Africa as a Foreign Service Officer (Diplomat). They've got some of the greatest fabrics in Africa....really wonderful. I bought a bunch while I was there, and it's now sitting on a shelf, waiting for the next project. Oh, yeah, I've been working on the Africa Quilt since....2004. Only 5 years. As you can tell, I'm in no rush. I'm also working on quilts for my two step-sons. Those two have been in progress for only 2 years. I'll keep you updated on the progress!
Welcome to My World
The rantings, philosophies, and memories of a retired military, ex-diplomat, tattooed biker chick, quilting o'lady, pagan college student step-mom.
No guilt trip here - I refuse to to cave into that trap - about anything. Everything happens for a reason (Karma? Fate? Destiny? Dumb Luck? or Free Will...) and it is what it is. I've come to a point in my life where I can accept that.
Eveyone always told me to write a book, because I have so many funny stories, life experiences, unique view points...but, a book? What a pain in the ass. Blogging seemed like the next best thing, so, if you're ready (and there's room enough for everyone!) fire up the bikes and lets ride....
