Oi!

Why are some bad movies like horrible crashes? We want to look away, we want to go on with our day and our lives, but some kind of morbid curiosity compels us to keep staring. I am watching Motherhood on the movie network and it is so very very FAKE! There are some redeeming performances in the movie, but for the most part the interaction is completely unrealistic. I have spent the last hour or so being more irritated than entertained......and yet I just can't bring myself to flip the channel or better yet, turn off the idiot box completely! Oi!

I have spent a lovely, lazy Saturday surfing the net and finding some inspired organizational ideas. The spring cleaning bug is biting, I have the urge to purge the stuff not being used and chase those dust bunnies out of town. Look out winter dirt, there's a new sheriff in town. Maybe. Perhaps I'll get a cup of tea and sit down until the urge passes!

Every Journey........

They do say that every journey begins with a single step. I don't know my destination, but I look forward to sharing the trip!


I'm a crafty kind of gal. I have dabbled in many different craft forms from macaroni wreaths to counted cross-stitch, scrap booking to card making, scrunchies to quilts. I can never seem to stick to just one, although I always come back to quilting. I thought I could use the blog format to share my ideas and hopefully gain some insight and/or inspiration from other crafters when I am stuck. 


I have a lot of ideas of what I would like to do, unfortunately I am the teeniest bit technologically challenged. With your patience and the help of my tech savvy sweetie we'll whip 'Odds and Ends' into shape.


I'm currently working on a doll quilt made from leftover scraps. I shall post some pictures when I figure out how it's done!
