I am a retired 44-year veteran of the Real Estate Assessment field. As with real estate assessing and how it applies to real estate taxes, one can make many acquaintances, but not many real friends. It was a great career choice.
It has been nearly 10 years since I reclaimed my home and my real passions within my home. I enjoy it more each day and tip my hat to those who I left behind.
Each day I try to stretch myself with the use of my computer as it relates to this site and using it to print out labels for quilts for trying to incorporate photos into my sewing. Life is so full and I know that I have room for more.
Sometimes when scrappy quilts can be ho-hum, a bit of design on the border gives it a shabby chic kick. Anything is worth a try. It also gives the reverse of the quilt some appeal. This project is getting very close to having the binding applied . . . and of course, it will add a bit of additional color splash.
