I'm Thinking Of A Ruffled Blog Hop...Are You?

There's a new blog hop in the works and it's all about
RUFFLES!

add a ruffle to something or anything. Really, I have SO many ideas!

Don't you want to join in the fun!
The Sew Incredibly Crazy Amy will be cheering us on for this one,
so check the rules on how to join HERE,
then hurry and email Amy to be part of the ruffles hop!

AND...more hops coming soon!

So who am I and what to I do on my blog?

Well.....

My name is Carol and I blog here at Just Let Me Quilt.


My blog name came about because I worked full-time,
took care of an elderly lady, had a busy life as a mom and grandma,
and all I wanted to do was have more time to quilt.
I'm retired now, so I finally have more time to play with my sewing machine...yay!

A few things I love:

Quilting and sewing

Blog hopping with Madame Samm at sewwequilt.com

Snuggling with my Monkey Boys (grandsons)

Playing with my two dogs

Working on my family history

Writing and answering emails

Kona, EQ7, Grow Your Blog, And Other Stuff

I was in totally drool-mode just looking at all the projects made with 
Kona solids in the Wake Up To Kona Blog Hop.
  Wowzers! 
It's been one of my favorite blog hops (I know, I say that every time.)

We still have a few more days left of the Wake Up To Kona Hop and then we'll be off and running with more fun hops.



Last year I bought EQ7 software during a really good sale...then didn't use it. I happened upon a retreat, Quilt St. George 2014, and was so excited (really, I was SO excited) because I saw that Annie from byannie.com was teaching classes about Electric Quilt software. I got to go to three classes...loved it!

Oh boy, oh boy!

It was so cool...not that I'm magically good at it now, but I learned a lot. Plus, I came home with all these really cool gifts, samples, and books!


While visiting my favorite blogs I came across info on this fun blog party, Grow Your Blog. I signed up (did you?) I can't wait to find new blogs, meet new bloggers, and have a few visitors stop by my blog. Vicki at 2 Bags Full will be hosting this incredible event. Be sure to check it out! Oh, and...

I'll be having a G-I-V-E-A-W-A-Y!

2 Bags Full

I picked up my sewing machine today and now it's totally fixed. Yay!
It's a good thing, because look what blog hops are coming really SOON!

See you Monday for more of Wake Up To Kona!
