I hinted earlier this week that I had some news to share. It’s the reason I’ve been prepping sewing machines, kitting up projects, cleaning out, and not doing a good job of replying to comments. Did you guess?
I’m heading back to Arizona! Not just for a week or two, for most of the winter! Mr. Wonderful and I will be driving out soon with the puppy dogs and a trailer in tow. We are officially becoming snowbirds. The biggest reason for going is not to avoid the snow (though I certainly won’t miss it!), but rather to spend more time with our kids out there. I can’t wait to see these two!
We will come back to Michigan for Christmas, but then fly back in January. Daughter #2 has been invaluable in helping us and God has greatly blessed us in finding a beautiful second home out there.
This is a dream come true for me. I will miss Friday, my long arm, but I’m looking forward to setting up a new sewing room and getting lots of piecing done. Posting may get a bit sporadic over the next few weeks or so, but never fear, all is good in our new neighborhood! Back to packing.
Have a great day!

Hi Katy!
I love your god bless America quilt! I have a panel and was looking for this pattern to do around my panel do you have the pattern for sale?

How exciting for you & Mr Wonderful!!! Can’t wait to see pics of the new place. So nice for you to be near your kids & grand kids!!
Congratulations on your new Snowbird life! What is it about Arizona? I have friends that have vacationed there annually for years. Now my two BFFs and I are planning a “girlfriend trip” there for next year as a (hopefully) post-Covid/60th birthday celebration. What fun to get to set up a new quilting space!
How exciting. Congratulations. It’s always good to be near family.
I am so happy for you two! Congrats!
Love your new snowbird home! Have fun send pics too

Hi Katy! I am beyond thrilled for you. Being by your peeps will be worth every struggle you encounter on this path – the end result! {{Hugs}} I kind of suspected and thought you were giving up Michigan for good. I look forward to hearing about your adventures and fun. ~smile~ Roseanne
