Quilting adventures from the Threadmonger. Monday, March 4, 2013. Teddie - a cat in fabric.

Note that I'm sewing shut the folds on both the front and the back of the quilt at the corner. An important step. Sedro-Woolley Hig...

I didn’t know until recently, that the term “variable star” has a rather famous origin. In science history, the general public often became fascinated by new discoveries, theories, and debates.
