Holy Smokes! I forgot all about answering some questions over at “5 Minutes for Mom.” They have published my answers in the form of an interview. Golly!

Mom and I decided it was too nice of a day to sit inside and sew. She had heard about a fabric store in Noblesville that we needed to find. All I did was venture into the fabric store. I didn’t know they sold sewing machines. I didn’t know they would have the Janome 6600 [...]

In this age of communicating with our computers, iPods and cell phones, it is easy to forget the art of letter writing. I love to write a note using beautiful stationery. Elizabeth over at Table for Five is giving away a beautiful box of stationery. This beautiful stationery is from Paperlicious and has a retail [...]

Times have certainly changed in our business. When the previous owners told us the incentives they used to receive, we were blown away.

I have been working on a baby quilt that I started in a class. We learned a new way to make flying geese quilt blocks. It requires a special ruler that is quite nifty. We had a choice to make a boy or girl quilt and mine is for a girl. I like the way [...]

Wouldn’t it be nice if when a telemarketer called you really were interested in what they had to offer? Utilizing a targeted business mailing list could actually be a good thing! When I am interested in finding new products for my hobbies, I am all ears. For instance, I have been searching for a stabilizer [...]
