This quilt is my empowerment. This quilt started me on a ride that I’ve been on for over 40 years, quilting. So today, I’m share my FAVORITE quilt !
My Great-Great Grandmother’s QuiltThis quilt was a gift to my mother from her Great Grandmother. And then a Gift to me from My Mother. Making it my, GREAT-GREAT Grandmother’s Gift to ME ! Well…That’s how I like to look at it. I never met her and my mom only remembers helping with the peddle sewing machine. I use this quilt and love sleeping under it. It goes in the washer and now living here in Florida and not having a clothes line it does go it the dryer….Yes… it bothers me too, but…. the colors are still very bright.
The hand quilting on this quilt is WONDERFUL

I was looking for something in my quilt tubs and found this quilt. It’s a little red, log cabin quilt, the log cabin blocks are made using cut strips of one inch. Using a 5 inch package of charm fabrics. I used to do trunk shows and quilts like this were a part of that show, I have a lot of quilts.
I found what I needed, and the tub is all packed up again.

I am asked about a post I did a few years ago and I’m working it into a book. I came to the part about happiness and what keeps coming back to me is The Quilt Ladies, they are my heart, my happiness, the start….here is
The Quilt Ladies Quilt Pattern Shop it’s going strong, thanks to all your support. I could never do or give away what I do without your purchases.
It was one of the hardest things to do a few years ago to change myself up and start doing…what I like, love and need to do. www.bethanndoing.com was born. The Quilt Ladies are my heart and the quilt patterns will never go away, my Ladies seem to bring me peace, when nothing else can. I’m six years into photography and it’s opened my eyes up to see things a different way. I have taken classes, field trip, shot photos with others, but now it’s all about me ! See what I am doing, I maybe come a brand….it’s only taken me….eighteen years ! ! To figure myself, my work, my life and my art all out. NEVER say NEVER !
Everything is a process and working through that process is a mindset you have to have inside of you ! No one can do it for you, YOU have to do what ever it is YOU see yourself doing or becoming. The Quilt Ladies Quilt Pattern Shop is my daily excitement, what you like, what I like, how to do a quilt pattern at the great price and give you what you need.
I heard you all said, “I don’t want to do the work.” I’m using Fine Art America, a great company, that does all the work for you, just want a print?they do it, want my work on canvas? they do it, framing and matting is no problem for them. Most pieces ship in only days. Thank you all for your love support and kind words.
After LOTS of time, lots of thinking I can, could I and maybe’s. I have done it ! ! ! Happy Dancing.
I have added my Pictures and Art to Fine Art America ! I have three collections with more to come. These are two of my pictures, DAISY ME photo, watercolor MILK and DONUTS, at Fine Art America, they do all the printing, and if you like matting and framing !
I hope you take some time and look around and see all I have been doing. I will be adding more in the next few days and I can’t explain how proud I am of myself. Just making my OWN Dreams into Reality
Husband always says,”My life is a happy place.” I think that’s funny. Since all the learning I have been doing lately and figuring myself out, I do understand what he is saying.
You are the only one who can make you happy. Maybe at 60 years old, I finally figured out NO one and nothing but ME, can make me happy ! I’ve been trying very hard to live in my own doings, my own happiness and my own ideas. And My Happy Places HELP !
I love my bed, I have an over the top routine of what it has to be, how it is made, the sheets, pillows, I confess, I AM a bit Nuts over it, and I have given it YEARS of practice ! And, I’m not a prude about it either, I love to crawl in, eat lunch,have afternoon coffee, read a book, right in the middle of it. It’s all about being…..Happy ! Laugh out LOUD !
My office is a very happy place too, I use it daily and most days, I kind of escape into it. Awake early this is the place you will find me.
i know I have shown our Lanai a few times, but I love this spot, it’s hot here right now and I can only go out early morning. but I love this spot !
Find or make yourself a spot, a quilt on the chair, do something for yourself !
This is the FIRST quilt I made, and you know….NO ONE sleeps or touches it but me and IT’S just fine ! I don’t think anyone cares ! And….I makes my HAPPY !
