Yours truly has a recipe and quilt story in Quilting Gallery’s newly published The Quilter’s Cookbook! It’s available as a downloadable PDF, so you have access to the recipes immediately.  I’ve already got mine and it’s a lovely cookbook.

There’s even a list of recipes, so you can see if it’s something you’d like to have.

It’s starting to look a lot like slippers!


Big Foot Slippers

You know what they say about a guy with big feet?  He needs big slippers!

The the first sign in my house that colder weather is coming…The Big Guy needs new slippers!  This is the only kind of slippers he’ll wear, made by me and designed years ago just for his size 13s.

In about two weeks, it’ll be a year since I posted this little gem of a pattern, which itself was designed in 2000.  This year’s pair was made with my favorite new yarn, I Love This yarn.  I love how the earthiness of the colors all come together for the finished product.
