And I didn’t bring home anything extra with me. Guild meeting was last night, I flung a bunch of string blocks, crazy blocks and a donation quilt last night. And I didn’t buy any tickets for fabric or books. Nor did I even glance once at the goodies on the free table! WOOHOO!
Last week after visiting Vac and Sew and buying yet another kit, yes I’m addicted to kits, I decided then and there NO MORE BUYING or bringing home fabric. And I haven’t. Saturday, tomorrow, will be one week since I made this decision and I intend to keep it. And, no I do not have my fingers crossed behind my back.
I have now released from 3 bins, the fabric that was sitting there. One I used up what was in the box and the others were given away. Oh what a good feeling that is. And yet, I still have stacks of projects to work on but that is okay. Those are ones that I really want to do. It has taken about 3-4 months since my surgery where I have really wanted to sew and I am!! V
A very happy Donna in California!

Hello and welcome to my website!
My name is Donna. My hubby and I are retired. We have twin daughters and are blessed with 4 grandchildren. We are owned by a cat, Purrl. who loves to supervise and is very nosy.
I have been quilting since 1996. In addition to making quilts for my family and friends, I also make charity quilts for Marjoree Mason Center and Valley Children's Hospital. Marjoree Mason Center is a local organization here that helps and supports battered and abused women and children get out of abusive relationships. Every Christmas I make several baby quilts for the women, with a small stuffed animal or toy.
I also belong to the San Joaquin Valley Quilters' Guild here in Fresno. Since I retired, I have been trying to finish most of my UFOs, but my stash is way out of control! I have lately gotten into designing quilts and enjoy that even more than sewing them! I love colors of all types and consider myself to be a true scrappy quilter and I do love playing with designs.
I am the owner/moderator of Scrappy Quilters on Facebook, where we are very active with many mystery quilts, challenges and swaps. I welcome you to come by and check us out at https://www.facebook.com/groups/ScrappyQuilters.
Thank you for dropping by and I hope to see you again soon.
