I've been blogging for almost two months now and must say, I REALLY REALLY enjoy it! I especially like reading the blogs of quilters. I am beginning to feel as though several of these ladies are dear friends!! I'm still not quite sure of blogging etiquette. I am feeling my way. I am not a member of a blog ring (and am not really sure what a blog ring is LOL) and don't know if it is proper to jump in on the list (meme) things. I am going to respond to the ABCs meme and hope that this is okay!

It's your blog - you can write whatever you want I would say and it's interesting to read about you - gosh I must be a real sleepy head - everyone else who's done this one gets up way earlier than me - what a waste of valuable quilting time I must be spending sleeping - nice getting to know you a little better :o)
Brisket and baked beans sound so good, I want to eat at your house!
You go right ahead and jump in! I bet Judy would make room for you in the stash quilts ring if you want to join. This helps us to get to you you better and I sure enjoy that part of blogging, don't you? I may do it later tonight or tomorrow since I have been doing drudgery type quilting tasks so far today.
I love that red bullseye--very striking. I bet once you get the snail's trail started in the monotonic blacks and grays that you will wish you could sneak in some of that red, yellow, turquoise or something!
Always good to know anyone better! It's fin to learn new things. Jump away, I think most of us are still feeling our way around here in blogland!
If you're going to Italy in the autumn and get the chance DO go to Venice it is THE most magical place I've ever been to - we had a long weekend there two years ago in the Spring - it's fab!
I enjoyed reading all about you. I'm not sure though that eating chocolate is a bad habbit, more of an admirable trait to me. Lol.
Happy to learn a bit more about you! And I"m glad your having fun with blogs!
Saw your post over at Susan's. Took a vacation in MO and ARK last week and could not believe the number of places just on the side of the road selling homemade quilts. I personally don't make them, but my wife loves making them.
You haven't posted in a couple of days. I hope all is well -- and if it's not, hope it gets better real quick!!!
