The Greats are Grand

Having the grandkids over to stay the night is so much fun.  They are quite busy and keep us hopping.  They require very little entertainment and play together very well. 

We fed the fish at the pond.  Refilled the bird feeders.  Sat in granddad's lap.  Discovered Gramma's colored pencils---they loved using the little hand sharpener.



Breakfast next day, pancakes with blueberries and chocolate chips.  Their order.

Silent Sunday Snaps

I hope to post only a photo or two on Sundays with few or no words.  Enjoy!

Jumping off the deep end

Every morning, while drinking my coffee, I spend time looking around blogland, mostly quilting blogs.  I enjoy seeing what everyone is creating and reading about your creative processes.  I have been thinking about testing the waters for a while,  so.........I am jumping into the pool.

My blog name has a two-fold meaning.  First, my sewing/creating area is located on the second story of our home.  It is actually a loft at the back of the great room in our home.  The "second" reason for the name is that, although I have a deep fabric stash, I adore working with scraps.  My scrap stash is also deep and will probably never be completely organized, there are bags, boxes, and bins, etc.  I love digging deep looking for the right scrap for a project.

My scraps come from several sources:  my own projects, my friends, my sister, and, yes I have even purchased scraps.  What?

I hope you can check in with me occasionally as I share some thoughts, ideas, projects, photos and events of my life.

Welcome.     Nan
