celestial rainbow top done

well the top's all done! turned out just how I wanted it to.

plenty of room for fun hand quilting...rainbows for retinal scalding...the little heart lower right will be the signature square...by the time I got the quilt this far is was bed time :)
49" across by 62" tall...I think it's a perfect size to be lugged around and quilted on. Course the lovies I live with feel it needs to be much bigger...I guess they want yet another quilt for their beds...HA...not! This one will be keeping my legs warm with the upcoming winter thankyou very much...

Why do we love children?

1) NUDITY
I was driving with my three young children one warm summer evening when a woman in the convertible ahead of us stood up and waved. She was stark naked! As I was reeling from the shock, I heard my 5-year-old shout from the back seat, 'Mom, that lady isn't wearing a seat belt!'

2) OPINIONS
On the first day of school, a first-grader handed his teacher a note from his mother. The note read, 'The opinions expressed by this child are not necessarily those of his parents .'

3) KETCHUP
A woman was trying hard to get the ketchup out of the jar. During her struggle the phone rang so she asked her 4-year-old daughter to answer the phone.. 'Mommy can't come to the phone to talk to you right now. She's hitting the bottle.'

4) MORE NUDITY

A little boy got lost at the YMCA and found himself in the women's locker room. When he was spotted, the room burst into shrieks, with ladies grabbing towels and running for cover. The little boy watched in amazement and then asked, 'What's the matter, haven't you ever seen a little boy before?'

5) POLICE # 1
While taking a routine vandalism report at an elementary school, I was interrupted by a little girl about 6 years old. Looking up and down at my uniform, she asked, 'Are you a cop? Yes,' I answered and continued writing the report My mother said if I ever needed help I should ask the police. Is that right?' 'Yes, that's right,' I told her. 'Well, then,' she said as she extended her foot toward me, 'would you please tie my shoe?'

6) POLICE # 2
It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me. 'Is that a dog you got back there?' he asked.
'It sure is,' I replied.
Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he said, 'What'd he do?'

7) ELDERLY
While working for an organization that delivers lunches to elderly shut-ins, I used to take my 4-year-old daughter on my afternoon rounds. She was unfailingly intrigued by the various appliances of old age, particularly the canes, walkers and wheelchairs. One day I found her staring at a pair of false teeth soaking in a glass. As I braced myself for the inevitable barrage of questions, she merely turned and whispered, 'The tooth fairy will never believe this! This is too funny.



8) DRESS-UP
A little girl was watching her parents dress for a party. When she saw her dad donning his tuxedo, she warned, 'Daddy, you shouldn't wear that suit.'
'And why not, darling?'
'You know that it always gives you a headache the next morning.'

I'm 40 going on 97...less than 1/2 way done, got lots to still do!
I’m from Minnesota. I’m Swedish, Irish, a bit of German and a frappe of a few other Northern European countries. I have 2 daughters. Tabitha Ann was born in 1987. Jazmin Celiia was born in 1990. I lost my daughter Natalia Tatiana to a heart defect; hypoplastic left heart syndrom in 1989. Tabitha had my grandson sweet Oliver in 2004.

I learned how to quilt in 1990 while on bed rest trying not to have my youngest daughter Jazmin too soon. A in home nurse who helped me with my 3-year old Tabitha taught me. I made Jazmin’s bunny quilt totally by hand since sitting at my sewing machine wasn’t an option at the time. Since then I’ve made about 60 quilts of assorted sizes, mostly patchwork a few appliqué’. I work full time now, my sweet babies are adults and I’m a grandma now but the quilt bug raises its pin prickly head almost daily still. I quilt mostly for charities: God's Tiny Angels in West Virginia, Project Linus Greater Twin Cities, Heart Babies in Minneapolis, Home for the Brave, Benjamin Smiles at the Ronald McDonald House in Minneapolis...I want to give...make someone warm, comfortable, feel OK for the moment even if all around them is chaos. :) Must be a momma thing, I want everyone to be happy and OK!

I work in a small plastic injection molding plant (about 9 miles from home) as the Document Control administrator (chick) and industrial photographer. I’m also one of the ISO internal auditors. I’ve worked here since 1999. Once a month I make the company newsletter…it is ever so fun to be insanely creative!

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2005 after living with the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythmatosis. It is a double edged sword to be living life like you have something when you have something totally different. they're both rather tiring, pardon the pun. I push myself to do everything I do. Laying in bed with the heating pad nearby and a few pain killers would be so nice and simple, but I have to work, have to be a mom, have to be a nana...want to be a quilter, want to be an artist. Unfortunately the quilting and creativity usually sit there and glare meanly at me when I'm just in too much pain or too tired to move. Sad to say muscle relaxers are my friend, but only in the evening after work, momma-ing, nana-ing and dutiful wife-ing are complete.

For fun my girls (when they have time, now that they are grown) and I scrap book, collage, decoupage, paint (acrylic) sketch, sculpt, well just about anything fun and crafty. We go for nature hikes throughout the year to experience the changing of the seasons and enjoy the plethora of local flora and fauna when allergies and biting insects don't stop us. I like reading true murder mysteries and anything by Stephen King and Dean Koonze. I also like watching DVDs at home, mostly mysteries, action adventure and spooky movies. When I’m left to my own devices I like CSI, Law & Order, stuff on the Discovery Channel, um, stuff along those lines. I also really like the stand up comics and The Daily Show with John Stewart! I love to laugh! In the summer the kids, mine and whose ever’s are around, make my current vehicle into an ART Car (truck, SUV, whatever) For silliness we enter it into whatever art car parade we can get to. Oh to be that flamboyant, + it seems to REALLY irritate some people for some reason… go figure!?!?!

I paint guitar bodies with all sorts of lovely abstracts, bits of surrealism in bright fabulous color...my lovely man then builds the guitars into functional instruments. One day perhaps we'll even sell a few.

I was handfasted to my sweet soul mate on the 9th of June 2007. He found me on the Internet on loveaccess.com cool huh? An Internet relationship that actually worked! We’ve been together officially since November 2006. His name’s Jim…and he’s dandy!

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain

We're the people, the happy with the broken hearts
The ones who draw a picture and proclaim that it's art.


Thought and language are to the artist instruments of an art.
