Like A Bad Penny - I'm Back!

Hello quilt lovers!

I began writing this blog in March of 2011. If any of my followers are still out there, I've missed you and I apologize. My obsession with quilts and textiles of all kinds took a turn when I got serious about writing a novel. All my time and energy went into finishing that.

I published Nothing Else Matters in November of 2022 at the age of seventy-six.  https://tinyurl.com/2vy73mr8 

With the novel completed, I reconnected to quilting and textiles. Recently, I looked to see if my blog was still 'out there' and I found it.! To my horror, I came across a whole list of comments to which I had not replied. Apparently, comments need to be 'approved' to be posted. I'm going to change that setting. I am sorry if you left a comment and got no reply. I thought I was a little bit tech savvy but it's gotten away from me these days. Things are changing so fast. 

All are 6"-7" mostly square!

I continue to quilt and love textiles. I've been having fun with very small projects. A bag of bright scraps was fun to work with and added some pizzazz to batch of potholders -or candle mats - or......?? 

After years of being away from quilt guilds, I'm once again enjoying the companionship and inspiration of being with other quilters. I put an article in the monthly Women of The West (WOW) newsletter with a link to this blog and an explanation of how I got into blogging. (That is the first blog I wrote. Along the right column of the page is the list of posts. Start there - the very first post (March 6 of 2011) to get the story of why I got into blogging.) 

I welcome your comments and questions. I promise to check in often. You may also email me at jsmithcarlton46@gmail.com

I am not sure how often I'll post but check back now and then and --

 

    Until next time, keep quilting!
