I used to find falling asleep extremely difficult until I discovered the 4-7-8 or 478 breathing technique and tried it for a month.

Creativity is a struggle. It's often embarrassing, and shameful, and decades of hard work. But if you're born to do it, you have no choice but to try.

Katrina Miller still remembers the first time she felt him. It was four years ago, a mysterious man arrived at the hospital that she was working for at night. She was suddenly forced to "take care of" him. The man waited for her on the bed like a demon crouching at night, rushing to tear her apart. His strong and hot body was on her, driving her crazy. It lasted three nights in a row and Katrina l...

I'm trying out a new tool this week called the L'il Twister; it's supposed to make pinwheels easier. Right out of the gate I'm a little skeptical, because how could they be any easier than the half-square triangle kind? But I'm giving it a go with these cute fabrics... lots of polka dot charm squares, some Moda Bleached White solid, and a flower stripe from Michael Miller: Start by making a four-patch unit with charm squares and border it with 3" cut strips on all sides... add this tool... Cut like so... Re-arrange like so... And sew it all back together to make this ultra-cute pinwheel! The finished block is 9" square. As I was going through this process, I was thinking, "this sure is a LOT of seams and cutting to make a 9" block! And this (photo below) is a LOT of waste!" (BTW - I loathe fabric waste, except in the case of paper-piecing New York Beauties... I mean how else are you going to get those super-sharp points, right?) Anyway, even though I was extremely skeptical and so sure that I would not be happy with this tool, I can report that I AM happy with it. Those pinwheels are so cute and the process required little more thought than which charm squares to put together, that I have been won over. I'll keep you updated on the progress of this project; it's going to be a baby quilt when it's finished. Incidentally, there is another Twister Tool sized to use with layer-cake squares and several projects for using both tools in the new book Let's Twist published by Country Schoolhouse Quilt Shop. It seems that quilt shops are having a difficult time keeping these items in stock, so I don't know where to direct you to purchase them. If I get more info I'll pass it on!
