John Snow was a man of many accomplishments. He was born in Vancouver in 1911 but moved with his family to England where they rode out World War I. His family returned when he was eight and moved to Olds. At seventeen he joined the Royal Bank of Canada, where he would work until his retirement in 1971, with time taken out for service in the RCAF and RAF during World War II. These stints in the air force gave him the opportunity to see the world and its great museums. This would nourish and influence John's artistic side and this is why we know John Snow.
In addition to his accomplishments as a banker and a soldier, he was a great artist. He had absorbed the European modernist approaches, and his desire to see art accessible to all people led him to printmaking. He was great friends with the architect Maxwell Bates, with whom he had studied life drawing after the war. They salvaged a couple of lithograph presses and began experimenting with printmaking. They essentially taught themselves an art form that was stagnant at best and breathed new life into the medium.
Snow's work would apply his European influences to prairie subjects and express them in a new and contemporary way. The studio he established in his basement was, at one time, the only facility of its kind outside of educational institutions in Western Canada.
In addition to his own work, Snow printed images for other artists in including Bates and Illingworth Kerr. Due in no small part to John Snow, Alberta is regarded internationally as a centre of printmaking. In addition to his talents as a printmaker, John was an accomplished painter and sculptor. He also helped form the Calgary Film Society in the 1940s. John Snow was inducted into the Alberta Order of Excellence in 1996. He passed away in 2004.
His spirit, however, lives on. His house, which was built in 1912 and purchased by John in 1951, was purchased after his death by Jackie Flanagan, who used it to house artists of another medium, those involved in the Markin Flanagan Distinguished Writers Program. In 2008 the house was offered to The New Gallery. They successfully lobbied for zoning changes to allow them to house their Resource Centre, offices and a multi-use cultural space. The official opening of the John Snow House is this Friday at 7:00. Check out their Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=10805587592822)The house itself was named a Provincial Historic Resource in 2003.

The Airport, Calgary, Alberta, Canada (circa 1940s?)
Postcards from the Past, PC 1122
We're pursuing the theme of Mavericks this season, partly because of our inaugural One Book One Calgary celebration and partly, I think, inspired by the results of our recent election, where Calgary voters surprised the world with their "maverick" choice for mayor. Interestingly enough, the mavericks I had in mind for this week's blog entry, were the aviators; people who took to the skies when flying was still in its infancy. Reaching for a segue, I suppose I could mention that Mayor Nenshi wants very much to provide access to the Calgary airport by finding ways to build a tunnel under the new airport runway (well, it is a stretch, but…)
One of the first manned heavier than air flights in Calgary was a truly maverick operation. Two young men, Alf Lauder (15 years old) and J. Earle Young (12 years old) designed a kite like flier powered by a motorcycle engine. It would not lift off, however, so they borrowed a two-cylinder Buick car and towed the contraption and finally did manage to get it off the ground.
Prior to World War I, most flying in Calgary was done for entertainment. Fliers exhibited their skills at the Calgary Exhibition and at air shows. After the war, though, flying took off, so to speak, and Calgary, with its typical can-do attitude soon had an aircraft company, the McCall Aero Corporation Ltd which was founded by Freddie McCall in 1919. An Aero Club was established in 1926. This club trained more pilots under a scheme by the government of Canada that saw flying clubs earn $100 for every pilot's certificate its graduates attained. Sixty people graduated from the ground school in 1928, with a girl at the head of the class.
Calgary served as an RCAF air base during the Second World War Lincoln Park air base was built. It housed the Number 3 Service Flying Training School and the Number 10 Repair Depot. One of the hangars currently houses the Calgary Farmers Market. Also during the war, Calgary's municipal airport was leased to the RCAF. It was not returned to the city until 1949.
The history of flight in Calgary is as interesting as the rest of our rogue history. If you are interested in finding out more about flight in Calgary, join us during our Heritage Weekend, November 5, 6 and 7. We are hosting two aviation related programs. On Friday November 5 at 7:00 in the John Dutton Theatre at the Central Library, Stephane Guevremont, from the University of Calgary, will be talking about Calgary's Forgotten Heroes: 403 Squadron. Another program for aviation buffs, From Triumph to Tragedy, F is for Freddie recounts the electrifying story of the Mosquito bomber that flew more missions than any other in WW2 with Richard De Boer. It is also in the John Dutton Theatre, on Saturday November 6 at 11:00. You can register for these or any of our other Heritage Weekend programs online at www.calgarypubliclibrary.com (click on Programs and then search either the name of the program or "heritage weekend" to see all of the programs). You can also register in person at your local branch or by telephone at 403-260-2620

Preliminary Town Planning Scheme
From the Mawson Report
Did you know that the Calgary Public Library's Community History and Family Heritage Room has a collection of over 300 maps relating to Calgary, Alberta and Canada?
We no longer have to think about paper maps as often as we once did. Now we can program coordinates into a GPS, and a friendly voice will help us reach our destination. (And as a bonus, you never have to try to fold a GPS to make it fit in the glove compartment!) Or you can go to Google Maps, enter an address, and instantly get driving instructions. You can even use Google Street View to zoom right in on a building or street for a better look, without ever leaving your chair.
But paper maps still have stories to tell. Several of the maps in our collection are beautifully illustrated, and elegantly lettered by hand. Others are surrounded by vintage advertising for local businesses and attractions, and indicate the locations of buildings that are no longer standing. If you would like to find the location of an Alberta homestead, a railway, an old Calgary street or neighbourhood, or an Alberta town no longer in existence, our map collection may be able to help. This collection is also useful if you would like compare Calgary in different time frames to see how our city has grown, or if you are writing a historical story and want to establish the setting. (Where would your characters catch the train, and which towns would it pass?)
Some of the maps in our collection are of the earliest representations of Canada. Several explorers lead various expeditions to the wilds of this uncharted territory, creating maps as they travelled. I am always impressed by the bravery and fortitude of these trail-blazing individuals, men like John Palliser and Peter Pond, and by the assistance and wisdom of their First Nations guides. Some of these maps are now known to be quite inaccurate, but their creators didn't have the benefit of an aerial view to see if they were right! (Palliser Expedition - Map CAN 5) (Peter Pond - Map CAN 22)
We have many maps of Calgary in our collection, representing the city from her earliest days to the present. The earliest map for Calgary is a reproduction of an 1883 land map, and it shows the homesteads of some of Calgary's earliest pioneers, men like James Barwis, Louis Roussel, Felix McHugh, James Walker, Napoleon Mayett, and Baptiste Anouse (Map CALG 40). The most current map in our collection is a Calgary Transit route map for 2009-2010 (Map CALG 124). We have several maps of Calgary showing the former names of neighbourhoods, and of areas that were annexed and named but then not developed until MANY years later. (This city has always been in flux, with many boom-and-bust cycles over the years.) Do you know where the neighbourhoods of Grand Trunk, Harlem, Strathdoune, Claralta, Kitsilano, Balaclava Heights or Spring Garden were? Harrison & Ponton's Map of the City of Calgary for 1913 (Map CALG 7) shows all of these neighborhoods. (I am guessing that Balaclava Heights was named after one of the international cities with that moniker, and not for the headgear, but with Calgary's winters, who knows?)
Calgary districts such as Sunnyside, Bowness, Montgomery, Forest Lawn and Midnapore were once independent towns and villages, separate from Calgary. In earlier maps, there is often a gap between the city and these areas. One map (map CALG 10) shows Bowness in 1959, before it was annexed by the City of Calgary in 1964. Sunnyside was annexed in 1910, Midnapore and Forest Lawn were annexed in 1961, and Montgomery became part of the city in 1964. The hamlet of Shepard, east of the city, was annexed in 2007. Calgary continues to grow.
If you would like to see what's UNDER Calgary, have a look at the Calgary Geoscape (map CALG 137). This map includes fascinating information on Calgary's geography and geology, and has notes on this area's aquifers, sandstone sources, petroleum resources, and glacial erratics.
If you are doing more current research on Calgary, we have a book containing aerial views of the city in 1995. (Call number Local History O/S 917. 12338 CAL 1995). We also have address and atlas books for Calgary for 1992, 1995, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2004, and 2007.
The Calgary Public Library's collection of historical maps is located in the Community Heritage and Family History Room on the 4th floor of the Central Library. We have several recent additions to our map collection, so if it has been awhile since you've had a look, come see what's new!
Nellie McClung House, 803 15th Avenue SW
Alison Jackson Photography Collection, AJ 0359
Because I am a genealogist I have an interest in the creation of records of people. Things like birth and marriage records, census records and, appropriately enough during this mayoral election, lists of eligible voters. When I speak to young people and people just getting started in genealogy, I have to remind them that we can't look for everyone in the voters' lists. As strange as it may seem now, at one time in our history not everyone was entitled to vote. In earlier times, being a citizen, as we understand it now, was not enough to qualify you as a voter. Sometimes you had to be a landowner, of a particular race, or of a particular gender. Changes in law that brought us to where we are now, where every citizen has a right to a voice in the choice of government, were often hard won. Often it took a way of thinking that was outside of accepted beliefs. This was the case with women's suffrage. It sometimes astonishes people to find out that women weren't granted the absolute right to vote in Canada until 1940, when Quebec finally granted women the right to vote in provincial elections.
The right of women to vote in the Prairie Provinces has much to do with a woman called Nellie McClung. She was a social activist who was concerned about many causes, among them, the right of women to have a voice in government. Through the work of Nellie and other women, Manitoba became the first province to grant women the right to vote in provincial elections and to hold run for provincial office, in January of 1916. Nellie and her family had moved to Edmonton by this time and she had continued her fight. Alberta granted women the vote shortly after Manitoba, in April, 1916.
We have come a long way since we had to fight for the right to vote. Now we need to make sure that we exercise that right.
The Community Heritage and Family History collection at the Central Library has an excellent collection of material relating to the history of the political environment in Alberta and many of Nellie McClung's works.

In the next few years we are going to see a plethora of anniversaries being celebrated. The years at the beginning of the 20th century were a boom time for Calgary. Between the 1901 census and the 1911 census, the population of Calgary grew from around 4000 to around 44, 000. With the population growth came the establishment of important and lasting institutions and the construction of many fine buildings. The Calgary Public Library was built in 1911 and officially opened on the first day of 1912. The beautiful sandstone City Hall building was completed. In 1912 we celebrated our first Stampede. The street railway, our first transit system, was built in 1909. The period between 1900 and 1912 was one of major importance in the building of our city.
One organization, however, was already celebrating a significant anniversary in 1910. By that year the Calgary Board of Education was already 25 years old. On March 2, 1885 the Calgary Protestant Public School District No. 19 was formed by an order of the Executive Council of the North West Territories. A school had existed in Calgary before this time but it was funded through subscription, not through taxation. At the time of its formation, the Calgary Protestant Public School District No. 19 had 70 students and met in a small building on 9th Avenue and 5th Street SE. In no time the size of the student population had overwhelmed the school and space was rented on the second floor of a building on 8th Avenue E. owned by I.S. Freeze.
The student population continued to grow and the Board was forced to issue a debenture for the construction of a purpose-built school in 1887, which would become Central School, on 1st Street W north of 5th Avenue. By 1893, it, too, was overcrowded. Throughout these early years of its existence, the board was plagued by a shortage of classroom space necessitating the rental of rooms in various locations including the Alberta Hotel. In 1893 plans were put in place to build a new school, which would be called the South Ward School.
South Ward School, 1958

Growth continued to be matched by the growth of the student population and, therefore, a growth in the school system. Some of those magnificent sandstone schools were built to meet the demand of the burgeoning population. We have pictures of many of those schools in our Community Heritage and Family History Digital Library, which can be accessed through the link on the left. We also have some very good histories of education in Calgary, such as From Slate Pencil to Instant Ink and From Slate to Computer by McLennan. We also have the 1906 annual report of the newly formed Province of Alberta, Department of Education. These are all available in the Community Heritage and Family History Room at the Central Library. The Calgary Board of Education has put up a really good PowerPoint presentation about some of their historic schools. You can see it at this link: http://www.cbe.ab.ca/125thCelebration/index.htm
Happy Anniversary CBE. Here's wishing you another 125 years.
Plus 15 to Penny Lane, 5 St & 8 Ave SW
Judith Umbach Photograph Collection
Calgary's Plus 15 System is synonymous with the downtown core. It is an extensive 16 kilometer public skywalk network of 57 bridges, designed to protect pedestrians from inclement weather and help reduce congestion on the streets. To get a better sense of how large the Plus 15 System really is, if you could rearrange all the skywalks into a straight line the walkway would be longer than 159 football fields placed end-to-end. Harold Hanen, who is "credited with being the father of Calgary's plus-15 system" ["Striving for an affinity," Calgary Herald, Sept 23, 1984], designed the network of 15 ft high walkways - hence the name Plus 15 - in the late 1960s.
The first official Plus 15 bridge, which connects the Westin Hotel to Calgary Place across 4th Avenue S.W [PAM FILE 388.41 CAL 1999], was built in 1970. However, this bridge was not the first pedestrian bridge built in Calgary. The first pedestrian bridge in Calgary is thought to be a bridge that connected the New Calgary Market (129 – 7th Avenue SW) to the Arcade on 8th Avenue ["Calgary Stock Exchange," http://corporate.heritageproperty.ca/OngoingProjects/SeventhAvenue/tabid/81/Default.aspx
If you are interested in learning more about the Plus 15 system, including the project's architect Harold Hanen, the library has a wealth of resources for you to consult. We have a newspaper clippings file, local history books, pamphlet files, and historical maps of the Plus 15 system, as well as biography clippings file on Harold Hanen. In addition, we have historical photographs of the Plus 15 System in the Community Heritage and Family History Digital Library. I found the map "1987 Calgary - Downtown Business Area" (Calg 34) to be particularly interesting as it shows what businesses were in the buildings connected by the Plus 15 system in 1987, as well as proposed Plus 15 & C-Train routes. For instance, did you know that there was a Plus 15 connecting a Dairy Queen to the Chevron Plaza on 5th Ave and 4th St S.W. in 1987?

Sometimes, when you see something every day, you actually stop seeing it in any real sense. Such, for me, is the Shaganappi golf course. I have passed it at least once a day nearly every day of my adult life. I grew up and still live in the west side of the city and I travel down Bow Trail nearly every day. I had stopped seeing the golf course. Now, of course, it is hidden behind the construction for the new leg of the LRT but it is still back there. I have had occasion recently, to gather some of my friends and neighbours around me to reminisce and my next door neighbor reminded me that she is a fifth generation Calgarian and told me the story of her grandfather, Joe Ferguson, who was the pro and the man responsible for the care of the Shaganappi golf course for many , many years. I was intrigued, especially when she told me that Joe actually lived on the golf course.
This picture is from Morris Barraclough's book and was given to him by Joe Ferguson. It shows the opening of the new municipal golf course in 1916:
From Prairie to Park, page 59
This, of course (and my friends are well aware that I am mining their conversations for blog inspiration) caught my fancy. Several years ago a donation was made to the Community Heritage and Family History collection. It consisted of notes and a manuscript of Morris Barraclough's From Prairie to Park: Green Spaces in Calgary, which was part of the Century Calgary publications for the centennial of the founding of Calgary in 1975. I knew Morris had interviewed Joe and had documentation on the history of Shaganappi Park and golf course. It proved to be a treasure trove. Excerpts from the Superintendent's report on Shaganappi from 1905 show that the 80 acres on the west side of the city, which were a gift from the Dominion Government, were considered unsuitable for park purposes but could be improved for field sports. In fact, in 1914, a 9 hole golf course was proposed, both for the purposes of enjoyment but also as a means to increase the revenue of the street railway, which ran out that way. By 1915 an 18 hole golf course built, sort of. 2,153 people teed off between August 7th (the date of its opening) and November 30 when it closed for the winter (really!) The following year it opened in March and some of the greens and tees were relocated on the advice of the players. William Reader, then parks superintendent "loaned a number of chairs and tables (my personal property) for use at the Club House, without expense to the city except for cleaning at their return." That year 7582 people teed off at Shaganappi. In 1917, shortly after opening in March, the course burned over and the pro from the Banff golf course was called in to re-plan it. It became a very popular course and by 1920 it was seeing nearly 15,000 golfers a season. Golfers so loved it that on fair days in the winter, although the course was officially closed, golfers could come out to play.
The Shaganappi municipal golf course will celebrate its 100th anniversary very soon. It is very satifying to see that he course is still in use. Many of us who grew up near Shaganappi remember wheeling off on our bikes with two or three clubs slung across our backs to hack away on the municipal course. Many of my friends became life-long golfers and now take their kids to Shaganappi to knock around a few balls.
Morris Barraclough's great history of parks in Calgary is available at the Calgary Public Library. It is called From Prairie to Park: Green Spaces in Calgary and is included in the Centennial Calgary volume At Your Service Part 1. The items so kindly donated by his family are in the process of being added to the collection.
I am always looking for ideas for this blog. Do you have any historical or genealogical subjects you would like to see written about? Pop your suggestion into the comments at the bottom of this page and we'll do our best to round up a photo and write a short article.
Mewata Armoury ca. 1934
Postcards from the Past, PC 1660
Last Saturday we enjoyed a march past of the Calgary Highlanders and the King's Own Calgary Regiment. Both were celebrating their 100th anniversaries. The Queen's Own Rifles was also celebrating their anniversary of 150 years, which makes them the longest serving infantry regiment in Canada. For several years, first and second battalions of the Queen's Own were stationed at Currie Barracks here in Calgary. To celebrate this momentous occasion, Princess Alexandra, the Colonel-in-Chief of the regiment, was supposed to come to Calgary. The volcanic eruption in Iceland put the kibosh on that plan but the veterans who assembled, though somewhat disappointed, were glad to have the chance to celebrate and connect with other veterans.
The King's Own and the Highlanders can both trace their origins back to the 103rd Calgary Regiment, Calgary Rifles. The regiment was formed on April 1, 1910. The 103rd formed several battalions during the First World War. The King's Own Calgary Regiment grew out of the 50 Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. In World War II they were reorganized and had several names, among them the 14th Armoured Regiment (Calgary) commonly called the Calgary Tanks. The King's Own have been an infantry, machine gun and tank regiment but are currently a reconnaissance unit. They are based at Mewata Armoury.
The Calgary Highlanders also grew from the 103rd Regiment. In 1921 they became a highland regiment, known from then on as the Calgary Highlanders. They were a volunteer regiment with members holding regular jobs. They trained on weekends and in the evenings. They were mobilized for the first time on September 1, 1939. Twenty-two of the Highlanders landed on Dieppe in August of 1942. All returned safely to England. Today the Highlanders are once again a regiment of "citizen soldiers" who train Wednesday evenings and one weekend a month.

These regiments are a part of Calgary's proud military heritage. If you are interested in researching more about the military in Calgary, we have a great collection of information in the Community Heritage and Family History Collection here at the Calgary Public Library's Central Library. We are also very lucky to have the Military Museums located right beside the Currie Barracks site which is also rich with the history of Calgary's military.
Elbo [sic] River
Postcards from the Past, PC 1248
I was reading the old newspapers, again, when I stumbled on the announcement of the winner of the "name that district" contest on April 15, 1909. J.R.C. Smith, of 1811 Centre Street, Calgary, suggested the name Stanley Park for the new subdivision adjoining Elbow Park. For his prize, he was awarded a fifty-foot corner lot in the subdivision. Over seven-hundred people entered and this, according to promoters, was an indication of a potential rush of buyers for the new lots. I have no idea why the name Stanley Park was chosen over all the others and I have no indication of the significance of the name (although I am still looking). I am very curious so if anyone out there knows, please let me in on the tale.
I checked the Henderson's directories to see if I could find out more information about Mr. Smith (suspecting, I must admit, that he was made up and this was all a publicity ploy) and what I was able to find was that there was a Smith living at 1811 Centre Street Calgary. Crispin Smith, who was a city magistrate, was the householder at that address. Could J.R.C. Smith have been his son? I don't know and I haven't been able to find any more information. No addresses turn up in Stanley Park in the five succeeding years of Henderson's directories. Even though Stanley Park was named and lots were designated, little development took place until the 1950s. The park itself, was designated a park in 1924, but most of the development of the park took place when landscaping began in the 1960s. My resources are obviously incomplete on the subject of Stanley Park, so I would be most delighted to hear from anyone who can add to my information.
Even the photo I've put into this entry is not of the area of Stanley Park but of a lovely vista of the Elbo (sic) River.
Calgary Public Market, 3rd Street between 3rd and 4th Avenue SE
Postcards from the Past, PC 1375
I was recently asked by the publisher of the East Village View to write an article about the site on which Booker's B.B.Q. is standing. I was happy to do this as the East Village is my second home. I have worked in this neighbourhood for all of my adult life and I love this place. It has changed so much, but there are still stories to be told about the residents and the buildings. The East Village View is our community newsletter and part of its mandate is to bring these stories to the residents. We have copies of the newsletter in the Community Heritage and Family History collection at the Central Library, if you would like to have a look at them.
Writing about the Booker's site allowed me to tell the stories of a bunch of interesting people who made their mark down here. Booker's stands at 316 3 Street SE just across the street from the Cecil Hotel. The current building was built in 1956, following a massive Christmas Eve fire in 1954 that destroyed the original Calgary Public Market building that was on the site.
The Calgary Public Market had been built in 1914 in response to consumer concerns over poor quality and lack of competition. It was a pet project of Annie Gale, who was the first woman "alderperson" in the British Empire. The building to house the market was built in 1915 (see the picture above) and it was immediately filled with vendors. It was a public utility until 1925. Even after that it continued to function as a market. It was purchased in 1946 by Sam Sheinin, who had been manager of the public market and had bought the building as a home for his businesses. He had operated various businesses on the site, Home-Del Foods, Calgary Cold Storage and Sheinin's Live and Dressed Poultry. Sheinin rebuilt and operated his businesses until 1959. By 1960 the Alberta Poultry Marketers Co-Operative had moved in. They operated from the site until 1960.
By 1972 the chickens were out and the "chicks" moved in. The Betty Shop, which seemed to be in every mall in the city when I was growing up, had its warehouse there. The Betty Shop was owned and managed by Lena Hanen. She was the daughter of a Rabbi, the wife of a successful businessman and the mother of Harry Hanen, the man who gave us the +15 system. She was also a very astute businesswoman and, by all accounts, a great boss. By the time of her death in 1979 she employed over 1000 people in 40 stores in Alberta, Saskatchewan and British Columbia.
Lena's family seems to have owned the building until 1985 when the Kingfisher restaurant opened its doors. The Kingfisher was famous for its owner, Sandy Cruikshank, and his "Tuesdays with Webster" discussions. In the late 1990s it changed hands again and became Booker's.
This part of the city has a fascinating heritage, one which I am very proud to be a part of. If you are interested in researching your corner of the city, come down to the Community Heritage and Family History room in the Central Library. We'd be glad to see you.

Patchwork Loves Embroidery SAL - Secrets and Dreams Journal
Life has been very busy lately, so I am two weeks behind in completing this project from Gale Pan's Patchwork Loves Embroidery. I took some liberties with Gale's embroidery pattern, as I wanted the design to be less crowded. The beauty of Gale's book is the abundance of designs from which to choose!
With inspiration and encouragement from the other ladies of the SAL, I am becoming more confident with my hand stitching and felt this was my best project to date. I really enjoyed picking out fabrics and thread and even ordered new embroidery needles from Jeana Kimball's Foxglove Cottage. My old needles were purchased from a hobby store, and they were catching and pulling the fabric. After reading a post by Pretty By Hand's Kristyn about her needle preferences, I ordered samples of different types of needles from Jeana's store and have had much smoother sewing!
Since I have deadlines approaching on other quilting projects, I was going to make this my last SAL project. However I still want to make the needle folder as well as pincushions, so I will make the time.
Be sure to visit Martina's blog for links to other SAL projects.

Breezing Along the Choose Your Own Block-Along
I've been busy with church activities this week, but I finally finished all the cutting for my Math Class quilt and managed to get six more blocks done for Choose Your Own Block-Along. The blocks go together very easily and quickly and with the added incentive to finish a block weekly, I might get done in time for my daughter's birthday in October instead of waiting until Christmas!
The X blocks are made by sewing printed strips to 6-inch squares and cutting edges off on the diagonal. The equals sign is simply 5 strips sewn together.
I am linking to Cindy's blog. Be sure and visit the other links to see the varieties of blocks.

Around the World Blog Hop
Today is my opportunity to participate in the Around the World Blog Hop. I am so honored to have been nominated by Christine of Patchwork Allsorts, whose blog I discovered several weeks ago. Christine makes beautiful patchwork and embroidered pieces and has inspired me to take up handiwork again! Read her post from last Monday HERE and get to know her a little better.
The Around the World Blog Hop is a great way to meet new bloggers by sharing about yourself, your projects, and your creative process, and then inviting three other bloggers to participate the following week. I was thrilled when the three bloggers I asked said "Yes!", and I am eager to read their posts next Monday. Amy of Indigo Cottage Quilts is a quilter who lives in Ohio and also happens to be a pediatric nurse! She has a beautiful 12 year old daughter who not only helps her choose fabric but has even made a quilt of her own. Dawn of Sew Much to Quilt blogs from Australia and is a fairly recent new grandmother. She does beautiful embroidery, by hand and with her sewing machine, and is in our Gale Pan Patchwork Loves Embroidery Sew-Along. Gayle of Pedal Sew Lightly lives in Georgia and is an avid quilter who also loves bicycling. Her posts are full of beautiful quilting, really good tips, and humor. I love all their blogs and learn so much from these lovely ladies.
A Little Background
My husband and I have been married 45 years in October. We grew up in northeastern Oklahoma, married in college, had a son and daughter, and have moved back and forth between Oklahoma and Texas with my husband's jobs. Our children are married; our son lives six miles from us with our wonderful daughter-in-law and three awesome grandchildren. Our beautiful daughter married our sweet son-in-law in January, and they live near Dallas about 4 hours away. My husband is Business Director for a church, and we live in Magnolia TX with our dog and cat. We are looking forward to my husband's retirement in the next year or two (although that may not happen if I don't stop buying fabric.) My careers have been math teacher, administrative assistant, and most recently, caterer for my own company, For Goodness Sake. I am retired but still cook for occasional dinners at our church as a volunteer. During the fall and spring, I am in charge of Wednesday night dinners for 6 weeks, and that time commitment limits my sewing time.

I currently have several projects working. Four years ago when I started quilting, I let my daughter pick out fabric for a quilt, and the blocks I made are still sitting and waiting in a basket. I couldn't decide on a pattern and I was clueless about designing a quilt; consequently I am not satisfied with what I've made so far. The fabrics are lovely, but her taste in colors has changed since then; however, I am determined to finish it! I'm excited about the quilt label - I purchased an orphaned cross stitched "Home Is Where the Heart Is" piece at a thrift shop, pulled the fabric out of the frame, and changed the word "Home" to "Quilt" so it now reads "Home Is Where the Quilt Is".
My daughter chose shades of mauve, purple, aqua, olive green, and a deep burgundy-brown
Another project began two years ago when my niece sent me the quilt top her maternal grandmother pieced. I have added a backing and a border, but I need to sandwich, quilt, and bind it. I didn't think to warn her not to wash it before she sent it, and many of the blocks frayed badly on the outer edges, so I repaired some blocks and added a coordinating border. It is the biggest quilt I have worked on, and I have been putting off sandwiching it! However after I got it out of the closet, photographed it, looked at the pictures, I am anxious to get moving on it again.
Front of my niece's quilt - I think her grandmother did a beautiful job piecing it
Quilt back - I found some fabrics that coordinated pretty well
It is amazing how well the old fabric in the lower triangle matches the new fabric of the border block
I purchased the kit for this math class quilt by Sweetwater for my daughter's Christmas gift, have most of the cutting done and four blocks made. I blogged about it last week for Choose Your Own Block-Along.
I love this pattern by Atkinson Designs and recently purchased vinyl and zippers to make a few for my church's fall market.
Seeing some of Christine's gorgeous embroidered blocks inspired me to buy three patterns from Mountain Patchwork, and I have completed Garden Gate. It was a real test of my rusty hand-stitching!
Garden Gate Pattern
I recently joined a group Sew-Along for Gale Pan's Patchwork Loves Embroidery (see the badge in my sidebar) and have been re-learning embroidery skills! We post every two weeks, and so far I have made a little bag and a sewing folder.
You can see other projects I've completed by clicking on one of the girls in my sidebar, or here.
I love all kinds of needlework including crochet, embroidery, and cross stitch as well as quilt making, patchwork, and sewing. I also love to tinker with crafts such as re-purposing second-hand items. If I can ever figure out a way to combine all those things into one big project, I'll never leave my craft/sewing space again. Right now all my supplies occupy the same room but in different spots, so as the mood strikes me I will work on one thing today and another tomorrow. With nearly everything I make, I like to try to do something just a little bit different or unexpected to make it original. I sew and quilt on a Janome DC3050 that I purchased with catering profits. It has been the best investment ever - sews like a dream and never any problems.

My grandmothers both quilted by hand, and my Mom sewed my clothes until I took charge of the sewing machine when I was 13. Taking a class and completing a single hand pieced and hand quilted block in 1982 created a spark of interest in quilting, but I really got interested after my sweet Mom passed away in 2010. She had lived with us for 8 years and died at age 98, and I believe her sweet spirit inspired me to take a quilting class. I was immediately hooked and have been learning and enjoying the entire process since then.

Quilts made by my maternal grandmother, Minnie Elzada Turner Mitchell
My mother and grandmothers instilled a deep desire to create with my hands, but I also have a love of putting things together or fitting them together. I have a degree in mathematics and always loved solving a problem but was not keen on the theory behind it. Similarly I loved diagramming sentences in English, but interpreting stories was torture. Quilting and sewing fulfill my need to find a solution!
I share space with the guest bedroom, so the bed provides a very handy space to organize or sort, plus I can catch a quick nap if I like. I have furnished my room mostly with furniture purchased at consignment shops and thrift stores. My recent organizing was documented in this post. Today I photographed my space without cleaning it first, so pardon the mess.

My favorite picture of Mom and Daddy and some of her trinkets on a shelf I refurbished
The Twenty-Third Psalm hand-stitched by my mother in the 1970s for a departing pastor. Last year the son of that pastor contacted me to ask me if I'd like to have it back, as his dad was moving to a retirement home. I am so grateful to have it!
Cutting table, Panasonic cord-free iron, overhead light with magnifier donated to me by my hubby, and a painting by my granddaughter on top of the shelf unit
My workbench with a pegboard of various tools; shelves hold fabric glue and media paints
Thank you for spending the time to plow through all this information and numerous photos! It was a good process for me, because now I am eager to finish projects that I have avoided.

Choose Your Own Block-Along - Math Class Quilt
Cindy at Live a Colorful Life writes one of my favorite blogs, and when she wrote this post about accountability in quilting, it struck a chord with me. She and some of her friends decided that a collaborative effort might help keep each other accountable for the multitude of projects they have started but not finished (sound familiar?) Choose Your Own Block-Along will link up weekly on Mondays, and I chose to join in the fun.
Math Class Quilt
I normally don't buy quilt kits, but when I saw this Math Class Quilt pattern by Sweetwater, I loved the name, the idea, and the fabrics. Fabric Buffet had the best price, so I sprung for it.
The fabrics - oh I love them. Moda's Elementary by Sweetwater has names like Geometry, Equations, Art Class, Measure Up, Biology and colors of blue, tan, cream, and black.
Numbers and equations!
This will be the perfect Christmas gift for my daughter. Although she works in the field of oil and gas exploration and production as an Engineering/Geoscience Technician, she was a whiz in mathematics and majored in those studies for awhile in college. She and I are nerd-ish in our shared love of all things related to math (we celebrate Pi Day), so this will be the perfect Christmas gift for her.
The diagram shows a different border than the black, but I'm sticking with black - I think it makes the quilt. The quilt finishes at 66x71, so it should make a great TV watching quilt for her.
I started cutting yesterday afternoon and decided to put together a few blocks so I could post on today's link-up. Be sure and check out the other blogs!

Stitch A Little Love Patchwork Loves Embroidery SAL
For this week's Patchwork Loves Embroidery Sew-Along I choose to make Stitch A Little Love Sewing Folder. This folder finished at about 7 x 10 inches, although the pattern is for 8 x 10-1/2 inches. For the main fabric I used pieces cut from a pillowcase I found at Goodwill. The remainder was from my stash.
The inside has pockets, and it is tied with a cord. If I make it again, I might add some lightweight fusible fleece to give it a little more body.
I plan to put add notions such as an embroidery hoop, scissors, embroidery thread, and a pattern before I give it to our church fall market to sell.
My stitching was improved this time by adding fusible interfacing before I worked the embroidery stitches. Amazing what works when I actually follow the instructions. I chose to add fabric hearts instead of stem-stitched hearts. My needle turn applique skills are not geared toward such small objects, so I used fabric glue to secure them and added a quilting stitch.
I enjoyed making this little folder so much I plan to make one of the other folder patterns included in Gale Pan's Patchwork Loves Embroidery for our next link-up in two weeks.
Katy right before she pounced on the folder
Be sure and visit some of the other blogs that are joining me in the link-up today.

Added Aug 3, 2013
by lillalocket
Barcelona, Spain
Pretty sleep/lounge wear – perfect for warm summer nights!
I find this free pattern easy to print and use (see credits). I made a couple of changes in the pattern since I added a button on the back and skipped the buttons in the crotch.
This time I made the garment in satin fabric, but it can be varied with different fabrics and colurs for completely different looks. I'll probably make anohter one!
The light colour is satin and the shoulder-straps are just made of the same ribbon as the waist belt. For the front neckline I used black flower lace. Small black flower-button.

A virtual tour of the classic motorcycle collection on display at the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Leeds, Ala.
1967 MV Agusta 500/3
Country: Italy
Engine: Air-cooled, three-cylinder four stroke
Ignition: Battery & coil
Power rating: 78bhp @ 12,000rpm
Bore x stroke: 62mm x 55mm
Displacement: 498cc
Valves: Gear-driven double overhead cam
Fuel system: Three Dell'Orto SS 27mm carburetor
Transmission: Seven speed
Suspension: Front telescopic forks, rear twin shock
Brakes: Front 220mm drum, rear 180mm drum
Weight: 275lbs dry
Top speed: 160mph
Originally built as a 350cc class machine, gradual bore increases raised the capacity to 377cc, 420cc, and finally 499cc. With this machine, MV won the 500cc World Championships from 1966 to 1973. This record is unique in the history of motorcycle racing. Increased competition required more modern technology, so the three-cylinder machine was replaced with a four-cylinder model that featured four valves per cylinder. MC
1964 Harley-Davidson XLR-TT
Country: USA
Engine: Air-cooled, V-twin four stroke
Ignition: Fairbanks-Morse magneto
Power rating: 70bhp @ 6,500rpm
Bore x stroke: 3" x 3-13/16"
Displacement: 883cc
Valves: Overhead, pushrod activated
Fuel system: Single Linkert carburetor
Transmission: Four speed, close ratio optional
Suspension: Front telescopic forks, rear twin shock
Brakes: Front and rear drum
Weight: 355lbs
Top speed: 115mph
The XLR was Harley's production racer, designed to compete in scrambles or "TT" races, where the capacity limit was 900cc. The XLR was a strange combination, with the chassis from the KR model, and a motor from the overhead valve Sportster. While the motor appeared to be similar to the production model, it had a shorter stroke and larger bore for higher rpm, producing more power, although the capacity remained the same. Motor internals were pure racing components, and in this form the machine was competitive with its main adversary, the Triumph 650cc TT Special. MC
1958 Velocette Valiant
Country: Great Britain
Engine: Air-cooled horizontal opposed twin cylinder four stroke
Ignition: Magneto
Power rating: 12bhp @ 6,000rpm
Bore x stroke: 50mm x 49mm
Displacement: 192cc
Valves: Overhead, pushrod activated
Fuel system: Twin Amal carburetors
Transmission: Four speed, shaft final drive
Suspension: Front telescopic forks, rear twin shock
Brakes: Front and rear drum
Weight: 225lbs
Top speed: 70mph
The 1958 Velocette Valiant was basically the L.E. power unit installed in a conventional chassis, the main difference being, the Valiant had overhead valve air-cooled cylinders and heads. It was often referred to as "The Baby BMW," and although the build equality was high, so was the price. The majority of buyers of lightweight motorcycles were interested in economic and inexpensive transportation, not a small version of one of the most sophisticated models available. MC
Country: Great Britain
Engine: Air-cooled, 47F V-twin four stroke
Ignition: Battery and coil
Power rating: 45hp @ 5,500rpm
Bore x stroke: 84mm x 90mm
Displacement: 998cc
Valves: Overhead, pushrod activated
Fuel system: Twin Amal 389 Monobloc carburetors
Transmission: Four speed
Suspension: Front Vincent Girdraulic fork, rear pivoted frame
Brakes: Front and rear twin drum
Weight: 430lbs
The final versions of this famous brand were the all-enclosed Series D, the Black Knight on display here is an updated version of a Rapide. New features were a hand operated center stand, and coil ignition for easy starting. Vincent assumed that their wealthy customers would appreciate the added weather protection that the new fairing offered, but they wanted a naked version, where they could see that magnificent motor. Sales of these new models were disappointing, and Vincent closed their doors. MC
Country: Great Britain
Engine: Air-cooled, vertical twin four stroke
Ignition: Lucas competition magneto
Power rating: 46bhp @ 6,500rpm
Bore x stroke: 71mm x 82mm
Displacement: 649cc
Valves: Overhead, pushrod activated
Fuel system: Two Amal 1-1/16 Monobloc carburetors with remote float bowl
Transmission: Four speed
Suspension: Front telescopic forks, rear twin shock
Brakes: Front and rear drum
Weight: 300 lbs
Top speed: 105mph
1959 was the first year of the Bonneville, recognizable by the headlamp nacelle, generator and remote fuel float bowl, these components only featured on this year's model. The Bonneville got its name due to the success of a team from Big D Cycles in Dallas, Texas, that set a World Speed Record at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah with a Triumph powered steamliner. This superb example was sold new from Big D and restored by then 35 years later. MC
1955 Vincent Amanda Water Scooter
Country: Great Britain
Engine: Air-cooled single-cylinder 2-stroke
Ignition: Flywheel magneto
Power rating: 2.1 hp
Bore x stroke: 50mm x 50mm
Displacement: 100cc
Fuel system: Single slide type carburetor
Transmission: Centrifugal clutch drive to propeller
Top speed: 15mph
Better known for their high-performance motorcycles, Vincent tried to keep solvent by producing industrial engines for lawn mowers, but their most radical design was the Amanda, making them true pioneers of personal watercraft.
To improve performance, the power units were increased in capacity from the original 75cc model. First, a 100cc version of the 75cc motor, and finally a 200cc twin that was rated at 5.6 horsepower, using the same bore and stroke as the 100cc single. The 1950s were early days for glass fiber, and when exposed to the sun the hull suffered serious distortion. Vincent closed their doors soon after but they had the right idea with the Amanda, just too soon. MC
1957 Honda Benly
Country: Japan
Engine: Air-cooled, single cylinder four stroke
Ignition: Battery and coil
Power rating: 8 bhp @ 7,200 rpm
Bore x stroke: 57 x 49mm
Displacement: 125cc
Valves: Overhead, pushrod activated
Fuel System: Single Amal carburetor
Transmission: Three speed
Suspension: Front leading link forks, rear plungers
Brakes: Front and rear drum
Weight: 282 lbs
Top speed: 55 mph
By 1957 Honda motorcycles continued to be developed, but still retained many of the features of the German machines, such as the pressed steel frame and leading link front suspension. In two short years they entered the lucrative U.S. market and also won the team prize in the Isle of Man T.T. races with 125cc machines.

Get as close s possible to the objects of your Lomographic desire with the Fisheye and Ringflash .
I always take the Lomography Ringflash to a party and catch admiring glances of the public and even the smiles of women and children. With this flash the bartender will give you a free drink, and the best girl is sitting at your table. Get as close to the objects of your Lomographic desire as possible! That's all what you need to know ! really! With this, it is possible to photograph a person as close as you want. Distance of 10 cm – it's easy, you can lean the camera close to the nose. With the Fisheye + Ringflash – the picture is one big color nose or mouth, or eyes – is difficult to make out what's what. I like to use multi-color filters for the flash or color ring .To get the bright colors I suggest you to put the brightest filters (red or green) from the top and bottom of the flash, because they better reflect on the subject.Blue and light green filters do not give so much brightness. The best color for the flash is red yellow green and purple. Use 400 iso film and let the light shine in!

Ensuring a visually stunning performance in an eccentric décor
'Master and Margarita', the famous novel by Russian Mikhail Bulgakov, has been adapted numerous times for movies, TV series, the theater, opera, etc. over the years. In 2011, the award-winning theater company Complicite premièred a new adaptation, which has been touring through Europe for over a year now. Directed by Simon McBurney, the performance makes superb use of video and music, resulting in raving criticism.
Even more spectacular than the tour itself, however, was the stage during the Festival d'Avignon in France, in July 2012. To fit the eccentric décor of the Cour d'honneur, located inside the high walls of heart of Avignon's medieval Palais des Papes, the entire AV set-up had to be redesigned.
AV partners Luke Halls (3D mapping), Production Resource Group (PRG) (projection), lighting designer Finn Ross and many other technical experts worked closely together to adapt the setting for the 110m wide, 40m high ancient building. Projection mapping was done on three of the interior walls, as well as on the 21m-floor, thus creating spectacular shadows and an illusion of depth on a flat service.
Most of the technical equipment was composed of Barco gear: two Barco FLM-HD20 and seven FLM–R20+ projectors ensured crisp projections, while four Catalyst media servers played back all the footage, processed the cameras and mapped on the floor. "The result is visually stunning," wrote The Stage ‒ the world's longest-running publication for the performing arts industry.

This cold quinoa dish has become a favorite make-ahead meal in my home.
Freshly squeezed orange juice pairs perfectly with fragrant basil in this easy dressing, and when tossed over quinoa and crunchy vegetables, it creates a tasty and refreshing dish.
Despite it's reputation as a "super grain," quinoa is not technically a grain–> it's a seed! Quinoa is an easily digested source of complete protein, containing all nine essential amino acids, making it the perfect base for a filling packed lunch or quick dinner. It's also a great source of iron, magnesium, vitamin B2, and manganese, which are all necessary for healthy brain function.
This cold salad can be easily modified to feature any fresh vegetables you like, so feel free to add any seasonal vegetables that you have on hand.
serves 4
For the Quinoa Salad:
1 1/2 cups dry quinoa
3 cups water
1 cup Orange Basil Dressing (recipe below)
1/2 cup finely diced red onion
1 cucumber, chopped
2 cups fresh spinach
1 red bell pepper, chopped
salt and pepper
For the Orange Basil Dressing:
1/2 cup orange juice
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup tightly packed fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon honey
Combine the dry quinoa and water in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat, allowing the quinoa to cook for 15 minutes, or until all of the water is absorbed. Remove from the heat, and fluff with a fork.
To prepare the Orange Basil Dressing, combine all of the ingredients in a blender, and blend until completely smooth and emulsified. Adjust the flavor to taste, if desired.
Transfer the quinoa to a large bowl and toss with one cup of the Orange Basil Dressing and all of the chopped vegetables. (Don't be surprised if the spinach wilts from the heat of the freshly cooked quinoa.) Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and allow to marinate in the fridge for at least an hour before serving. Serve chilled, or at room temperature.
This dish will last for up to a week in the fridge, when stored in a sealed container. The flavor gets better as it marinates!
Note: The leftover Orange Basil dressing makes a delicious addition to any leafy green salad, and will last for up to a week in the fridge.
