Nothing about sewing or crafting

This Monday brings good and bad and this is life.  The bad it is summer and the ice maker is out.  So out to Sonic and get a bag of ice and life is good.  Repair man comes today to replace it. Hubby make beautiful wood work, plays beautiful music, but mechanically inclined he missed

Row by Row stated

I have been patiently waiting for the Row By Row Experience started.  This year’s theme is music.  I don’t necessarily make the traditional Row by Row quilts but I like the designs as table runners and so on.  I am making a list of where I need to go around me to get the easy
