I have been busy attending an embroidery trunk show at AVS on Tuesday and then a DIME presentation this morning on zoom, both focusing on embroidery designs, patterns and classes. I may be a little poorer as I bought the software download for my machine, but I believe it will improve my edge-to-edge quilting skills. I don’t usually buy big ticket items but I think it is worthwhile and helpful. I also get 4 free tutorials on how to use it, so that will be good.
Last night I finished all 63 blocks for Grandma’s Victory Quilt and now have to finish squaring them up and get them laid out. I don’t think it will take too long and hopefully I can get it to the quilter next week. The past 2 weeks have been hectic with being hacked on FB, but not my email, and that was recovered, with going through and cleaning up and changing passwords. Now that that is behind me I can start focusing on the important stuff, quilting!! Having coffee with a friend tomorrow and then a vet appt for little Miss Purrl (our kitten) and then on Sunday, my sister will be coming to Fresno for a very short visit. I think that is enough for one week! I will decide what to work on once I get the quilt laid out, that’s foremost on my mind right now.
Gotta run and will chat later!

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.
