Guess What!

In my search for the “Wiggles and Giggles” instructions, I wrote directly to Country Woman magazine to see if they could provide a copy. This morning, I received an email from Jennifer Ziegler of Country Woman with a copy of the instructions attached. I’m as excited as a “wiggle worm in hot ashes,” to borrow a phrase from my late Mama.

The material is copyrighted, of course, by Country Woman, so I won’t share it here, which would be illegal. But if you would like a copy, I’m sure if you send Jennifer an email (Jennifer.Zeigler@TrustedMediaBrands.com), she would send you one. She says this is one of their most requested patterns. Or send me your email and I think it’s ok for me to share, just not publish.

I’m so excited about getting started on this happy quilt. I’m almost finished preparing my quilts for the quilt show, and I’m trying to decide whether to get right to “Wiggles" or finish the “Crown of Thorns” quilt before I start. I don’t think I’m going to be able to wait.

So glad I stopped by your blog today. The phrase "wiggleworm in hot ashes" was just too fun, good start to the day. Love your quilt, so darling. When I moved away from our home of 30 years, I came across an old quilt magazine from my pre-quilting days and I remember there was an article written by yourself in it with your photograph. I was a regular blog reader of yours by then, and I smiled over the connection to your past.

I would like a copy, thanks for your efforts in retrieving the pattern.

Getting There

The new Blackberry Creek is getting close to completion. Thank you, Jed for all your work. I've finally found a minute to get still and learn to post. Doesn't seem too difficult. When all the old posts and photos get transferred, we'll start working on the layout.  Today, I'm going to attempt to scale the stairs and do some work in the sewing room. I'm falling father and farther behind on my schedule to get things ready for the June 2026 quilt show.

Book Talk

To celebrate getting the border sewn on to my millefiori quilt, I decided to read a book--all the way through without stopping to sew anything. And I picked just the right one: Dear Edward by Ann Napolitano. If I had wanted to put it aside to sew, I don’t think I could have. This is the best book I’ve read for at least a year. It’s one of those stories that almost reads itself. You don’t feel like you reading but just enjoying an enthralling story. The pages fly by, and you’ve finished the book way before you’re ready to leave those wonderful but broken characters. The main character, Eddie (Edward) Adler, at the age of 12, survives an airliner crash. The crash claims 191 lives, including his parents and older brother. For the next six years, Edward struggles to carve out a place for himself in a world without his family. The story is heartbreaking and at the same time uplifting.  If you’re looking for a good book to read to usher in Autumn, I recommend this one highly...

Catching Up

This is my new granddog Ozzy. Daughter Andy recently adopted him. He initially showed up at Jesse's girlfriend's house, and after trying unsuccessfully to find his owner, she made him at home. But having one dog, two children, three cats, and a full-time job already, Ozzy (his name was Chip at the time) became too much for her. So Andy took him in. At first she was sure she had made a mistake. Not having ever owned a dog that she was responsible for (we had dogs from time to time when she was a child), she was sure she had bitten off more than she could chew. But things are settled down, and Andy and Ozzy have bonded. They visit me frequently, usually on Saturday to watch the Bama game--or in the case of last Saturday, to watch movies as there was no Bama game. Ozzie is a very good dog and appears to be well cared for. He had not been snipped, but he has been now. And the vet gave him a clean bill of health. As of yesterday, all the blocks, all 120 of them, are finished fo...
