Thanks for visiting my blog. I hope you'll enjoy reading about my quilts and travels. I make lots of quilts, many as gifts, some for charity, and a few on commission. I love to travel and I own a car, but I am afraid to drive in heavy traffic. So I often use public transportation to visit big cities. I don't just go on trips--I have adventures!

Courthouse Steps Update 7/27/2010
I read recently that Aqua Net hairspray can be used as basting spray. I bought a bottle and tried it last night. It didn't work. Maybe I'm not doing something right, but I tried a variety of ways to get the spray to stick: fabric to fabric, batting to fabric, different hairspray. Nothing worked. Grrrrr. I have a can of 505 spray, but at $13 per can, I'm not going to use it on every quilt. So I decided to scrap the plan of machine quilting Courthouse Steps, and will use a pillowcase finish and tie with embroidery floss.
