What does I do? Presidency of the League of Women Voters of Oregon, four years almost done, now heading into Action Chair. We live in the house Oregon Supreme Court Justice, Lawrence T. Harris, built, ~100 years ago. And this is what I do at home.
- Our Old House– We’ve put lots of effort into our 1925 house. Most recently, seismic upgrades completed
- Gardening– Still snowing into April Climate chaos!
- Sewing– Look what 2014 brought, when I had sewing time!- my dress form is now My shape! I’m starting with a pattern I love, even though it fit baldy- Big alterations…My 1912 Sewing ended, great Suffragette garb.
- Quilts! Our 2014 group challenge is Water quilts.
- Food! – That spaghetti sauce here! Well, soon. And Baking, etc. etc.
- Knitting – Over half way with the two yarns, two hands, two colors, Kamakura sweater coat. 🙂
- Think/Act– Update soon for issues of the day. How can we not work to make a difference?
Welcome to our house, fun afoot here. 🙂 Drop in and chat, have some virtual tea.

I love your banner picture. What a fabulous shop! We don’t have a great shopping venue here in SW Florida – everything has to be on-line. Just to touch all that stuff – oh my…
The banner photo is in Florence, Italy. I’m mourning the loss of several local independent stores around Oregon.
I used to get heirloom supplies from Capitol Imports in Florida locally. They only sell wholesale. I wonder if you have a better connection in Florida?
I’m in Oregon, too! What city are you in?
No kidding, that’s great for us! Eugene, how about you?

Gosh- did I answer you? I’m in Eugene, can’t remember if we talked about this. Come to Portland on April 7th, if you can, for the Rose Fest. Open House. I’m scrambling to finish a Suffragette costume. 🙂
Looking forward to photos of the suffragette costume!
Cool Site! Loved Oregon and its rich history.
Thank you, Oregon is a great place for tourism, different kinds of outdoors from Texas.
In thanks for all the advice I’ve gleaned from reading your blog, and in honor of your amazing sewing, I’m sharing a ‘You’ve Inspired Me’ award!

Hey, How are you?! 🙂 don’t you miss the 1912 group discussions? I sure do! I need to get back to fitting/alterations, starting to make good progress. How about you? What’s new?
