Therapy and the bereavement classes are helping me a great deal. I

sadness with me, but I’m starting to think about my future and new

OT Sad News by
Kate T.
This afternoon before the storm I had to bury 5 of Miss Lucy's
kittens. She had six. She let me pick up the only survivor. She
only leaves the kitten to feed or go outside. When she comes into the
living room while the kitten sleeps she just wants to be held. I feel
so sad for my little lady. ...

Quilt Rack by
John
After I finished the most recent quilt and sewing room accessories, I
felt drained. It was a full on attempt and I felt I needed a break from
quilting. But not a total break. So it was down to the basement

Block pattern needed by
Carol Wolfe
Hi Everyone. On the web site for "Block Central", they have a coloring
book. In the coloring book, they have a block listed as "Casement
Windows". Funny thing is, they don't have a pattern for this block.
