ME ME ME, this page is about ME

My story is a very simple one.  I’m Velda. I live in Stanhope in beautiful PEI, Canada with my hubby, Ron, one cranky old man-cat, Phinnius…and two black poodles, Tigg Dog and Theo the Wonder Puppy.  We arrived here from Sherwood Park, Alberta in July, 2014,

leaving behind our 3 grown-up kids in Calgary, Edmonton and Sherwood Park, their kids (AKA our o-so-awesome grandkids),  our friends, and our big city lifestyle (heheheh) to come back East to reclaim and reconnect with our roots.  Other than family, my one true passion is quilting. I love everything about it…even basting and binding…well maybe not basting, sigh. 

This is my virtual home.  Its meant to be a peaceful loving space where I can connect with people who love the same things as I do.    I’m so happy you popped in and hope you leave me a word or two so I can get to know you better.  Be warned tho,  I am a bit of a chatterbox…so its possible you may read something that makes you shake your head a time or two.

Just saying,  I think the world would be a very boring place if we were all exactly the same, don’t you?   Enjoy your journey and your day!

  1. OMGoodness of course you can use it, but I don’t know for sure if it was mine or a block I had a link to. Please make sure you credit the proper creator first. Can you find it in my blog? I’m so happy you liked it it. I’ll check to see if I still have the link.

  2. Velda, hope you see this. I was in your hive in 2018 and loved your wonky houses. Unfortunately a surgery didn’t let me make a block, an angel took my place. But I still think about the blocks you received. Your tutorial was excellent and I would like to use it for my May block in our bee. Is it ok to use your post for my block? Let me know. Thanks!

  3. Hi Velda, I stumbled on your blog from your work for Make Modern. How can I catch up with your posts on a regular basis? I don’t do face book etc. I live in Darwin, Australia, born London UK. I am now 80 and slowing up a bit but I never want to stop sewing.I have enjoyed the diaries and the quilts you have made.
