Way back in 2005, I started artquiltplay. And so I begin anew with my new blog nikkidaisy. So please come on over! Have a glass of wine, relax and please share your thoughts in the comments.

Wednesday, January 20, 2016. Every dog has its day. In November of 2015 I said goodbye to my faithful companion, Cailean. She was 15 years old, and had cancer. She was a tough little Scottie dog, and fought against showing any signs of pain until the last week, when she slowly lost her battle and the vet at the emergency animal hospital told me that there was nothing they could do for her. I will always love you Cailean. Thursday, January 14, 2016. Dream a little dream of me. Saturday, August 1, 2015.

We follow some of the same accounts.

Monday, August 03, 2015. I will have to keep you in suspense. These pics are the other projects I worked on. I purchased a layer cake and a charm pack at a retreat last year and found this pattern. I had this dark green and I thought it would work well for a background. I still like how intense it is though and different from my usual style. I need to add the green border on top and bottom and the piano key border. Linking up with Patchwork Times.

A new year, a new blog. Mainly about quilting but some family stuff probably thrown in for good measure. Friday, August 14, 2015. This was actually a lot of work in order to get it to the right size. I have on order some fabric.
