This online publication reproduces in digital form the text and images from the four University of Chicago Centennial Exhibition Catalogues. These publications were issued in conjunction with a series of exhibitions organized by the Department of Special Collections, now the Special Collections Research Center, to celebrate the 1991-1992 Centennial of the University of Chicago. Drawing on documents, photographs, and other materials from the University of Chicago Archives, these exhibitions viewed the University's history through the perspectives of the faculty, the student experience, relationships between the University and the city of Chicago, and the contributions of the University's first ten chief executives. The catalogues present a portrait of the vision of intellectual excellence and commitment to research on which the University was founded, and the individuals, interactions, and environment that have consistently guided it throughout its history.

I went to the beach last weekend for Memorial Day, and it proved the perfect start to the summer season. We east coast dwellers have had our share of rain this Spring, and it was a delight (and a relief) to finally enjoy good weather. But I'll say this, I thought my body would go into shock when I put on a swimsuit after so many months of layers. To soften the blow I topped my one-piece with my favorite cover up, and this, my friends, is what we need to discuss. Swimsuits, schmimsuits, nothing beats a good cover up and I'm here to tell you it's the key to your beach look. What to go for? A style that's loose and easy to get on and off (no pinching, no creasing, and absolutely no marks from it digging in), fabric that's breathable (cotton or linen is best), and above all else, something that will actually COVER YOUR BODY. Enough with the tunics that barely skim your bum. Stop it with the totally sheer sarongs. Knock off EVERYTHING that's too tight, too faded, too stained, too hot, and too skimpy. The idea is to look polished and pulled together, even waterside. Choose a color that's either an easy-to-incorporate neutral (taupe-brown-black) or sunny and super bright (coral, magenta), or choose a small-scale print in a color scheme that flatters your skin tone (it's not rocket science, people: If you have a lot of printed suits, go for a cover up in a color; if you like solid suits, maybe a printed topper is in order). You get the gist. Now don't even get me started on all of you who are covering up with your husband's old high school football jerseys. Really, I can only take so much.
Go! Buy! Be chic!

So, iv been eyeballing the SG43 fro awhile, it looks super fun.. i love the thought of a belt fed (tho in semi auto is sort of a oxymoron) but... hanging out with one of those and being the owner / builder sounds great.. except the cost behind them.. iv built a few AK platform things, whats the best way to go around doing one of these?
I watched C2builder on youtube diagnose re-welding a russian heavy machine gun, and patching up the drilled holes on the barrel, is this too far fetched?? or not even worth it? i mean, a kits 350 bucks.. are there decently priced semi auto receivers on the market? or does that mainly occur in the actual trigger houseing?

The magnificent Italian singer Anna Caterina Antonacci brings us an unexpected and exciting programme for her return to La Monnaie. In the first part of this two-part evening, works by Claudio Monteverdi and Marcantonio Cesti are associated with melodies by modern Italian composers from the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries inspired by the splendour of these masters, and in the second part, she will perform works by Henry Duparc, Reynaldo Hahn and Gabriel Fauré.
You are above all known by audiences for your interpretations of heroines. I am referring to Agrippina – a performance which astounded the audience at La Monnaie – as well as Cassandra, Dido, Medea and all of the figures who have punctuated your career. Your passion for opera is also above all a passion for theatre. What is your approach to the recital as a much more unadorned genre?
I would say that, to me, a fundamental difference does not exist between a recital and an opera performance. Recital is becoming more and more important in my career. It is true that there is an absence of characters – or rather, there are characters who come out of nowhere, who are nameless and who reveal themselves for two or three pages of music. But what is important to me is above all to tell a story to the audience and to take them on a discovery of a universe. A recital is a very intimate experience for me. It is perhaps the setting which allows me to express the most personal things and to speak about myself, and which still has to be invented.
The connection and encounter with the audience is always at the heart of your performances; this is also the reason why you do not really enjoy making recordings. I suppose that preparing a recital programme is not a matter of chance and that it meets very specific requirements.
Yes of course, and it can sometimes be very difficult. For me, it is essential to prepare a programme and to have a main theme. I cannot imagine a recital which would be a compilation or a series of melodies chosen to show off my voice or my vocal technique. Connecting with the audience and moving them is always at the heart of my approach and is one of my constant concerns. It is also why I am convinced that closeness is an integral part of a recital, and that it does not lend itself well to big auditoriums. When I give a recital, the closest audience members are seated less than a metre from me and I like this intimacy. The auditorium is like an enclosure – a sort of scenery in which each element is important, such as a beautiful light...
You have decided to present a programme in two quite contrasting parts: a first part in Italian and a second part entitled 'Reflets dans l'eau' centred on Venice, with melodies by Fauré in French – a language which you speak perfectly. Is this relationship with language important to you?
Essential. For example, I would not be able to sing in German because I do not understand the details and subtleties. It is absolutely essential for me to be able to emphasise each important word and to interpret it and give it the right colour. This is in keeping with the careful planning of the programme. In the first part – which I called 'Lo stile antico' – I decided to present melodies by composers from the past such as Monteverdi and Cesti. I chose to confront them with composers from the 20th century who were inspired by them while maintaining their originality as modern composers. For example, Respighi used the theme of a melody by Cesti, but wrote it for piano and composed a completely different part for the voice based on a text which I find very beautiful and touching. I wanted to sing both melodies and have them mirror each other – the ancient and the modern. The second part presents another universe, with very beautiful melodies by Hahn based on texts in the Venetian dialect.
You are a singer whose career has been somewhat special, taking you into both the soprano and mezzo repertoires. Is it important for you to define yourself according to a vocal identity or do you feel that these categories are irrelevant?
I would say that in the past I attached more importance to this, but today it does not matter whether the term mezzo or soprano is associated with my name. If I were referred to as 'Anna Caterina Antonacci, baritone', I would not mind at all! At the beginning of my career, I sang almost all of the roles composed by Rossini for his wife Isabella Colbran who was considered to be a mezzo, but there is an enormous demand for the high range of the voice in these vocal parts. What counts is feeling at ease with a repertoire and a character in order to be able to do it justice and sing it with pleasure. I am delighted to perform once again for the audience at La Monnaie in the role of Desdemona – a role which was also created for La Colbran and which I have never had the chance to interpret.
Interview by Rebecca Marcy

Jennie Iverson, a soup and winter-weather fanatic has spent the last three years traveling to ski towns and sampling locally-made soups. Not surprisingly, Iverson chose the chefs at two of Park City's favorite restaurants Uptown Fare and Riverhorse to submit recipes to the book.
Karleen Reilly, owner and chef at Uptown Fare submitted two of her favorite recipes Watermelon Gazpacho and a Black Bean and Sweet Potato Soup. "People are crazy about that watermelon gazpacho," she said "I give the recipe to everyone because they love it." The black bean and sweet potato soup was inspired by a dish her daughter loved at Renee's a now-closed Park City restaurant.
The chef at Riverhorse, Seth Adams, also submitted a gazpacho recipe, Roasted Corn and Vegetable Gazpacho that the restaurant served last summer. The recipe had been very popular all season so Adams adapted it for smaller servings and added it Ski Town Soups. Adams points out that this may not be the most warming post-skiing soup (he would probably prefer a spicy chili or stew) but the recipe will likely win home-chefs accolades in the summer months.
The book itself is full of other mouth-watering recipes from ski resorts around the country.
Reilly is willing to vouch for the quality of the cookbook "I started to go through it and I went 'whoa, this is one nice cookbook,'" she said, "I have maybe 75 cookbooks and I would rate this one right up there." Some of the recipes Reilly has tried include an artichoke and cheddar cheese soup and a coconut-curry soup, both of which she enjoyed.
It seems that Park City residents agree Ski Town Soups has sold out at Uptown Fare and Dolly's and Reilly says the publishers have already ordered a second printing.
For those lucky enough to land a copy of Ski Town Soups, the 226-page book should be enough to keep your belly warm all winter. Recipes are rated on difficulty similar to ski slopes (greens are easy, black diamonds are hard). After mastering the double black diamonds, some may even be inspired to experiment with their own soup recipes. Adams recommends keeping soup recipes (or any recipe for that matter) simple. "Even with my food at the restaurant here, the simpler the better," he said. He suggests using "simple, straightforward ingredients." Reilly's advice is about as simple as Adams' ingredients: "just do it!" she says.
Of course, you don't have to cook at home to enjoy soups from Park City's featured chefs. Uptown Fare has a rotating menu of soups and sandwiches, some of which will probably never be written down. Riverhorse also changes soups seasonally. Right now, the restaurant is serving a clam chowder and a vegan tomato soup. The tomato soup is so well-liked that when Adams tried to remove it from the menu, one distraught customer came to the restaurant and actually began to cry when he learned the soup had been removed. Apparently, for some, a soup is so much more than a soup. Iverson certainly feels this way and on the cookbook's website says she has discovered a "perfectly balanced recipe for life: a ski town, a comfortable restaurant, and a yummy bowl of soup."

Get ready for the comments!! This is one beautiful quilt :)
I would love to give this quilt to my 8 year old daughter. She is so shy and we have been working with her to be brave to say hello to new friends and ask others to play with her. It's a tough thing for her, but she is trying it out. She was so excited last week (and proud too I think!) because she asked a classmate to play a game with her AND he said YES! I would love to have something beautiful to show her how proud I am of her and how lucky I am to have her for a daughter. This quilt says it all!! Bold, brave and beautiful - just like her :)
Thank you for a chance to win!!
You can see pictures of her on my blog here:

Oh that's gorgeous!!! My 5yo daughter is starting Kindergarten this fall, and we're going to move her into a new "big girl" room for her this summer. The room she's moving to shares a wall with our living room, so I've been thinking of getting a quilt to hang on the wall of her room to help muffle sound while she's sleeping- This would be SO gorgeous for that!!!

Oh what a GORGEOUS quilt! I am so grateful for a chance to win one of your amazing creations. Well, Mother's Day is coming up. My mother-in-law was recently diagnosed with Lyme Disease, and she has been suffering greatly with arthritis and fatigue. She often attempts to get ready for her day only to end up at home full of joint and muscle pain and exhaustion. If I could brighten her day by giving her this beautiful quilt to make her smile on those days when she covers herself up with it, I would be so happy. She helps us out a lot, and I would love the opportunity to do something for her. Thank you! :-)

Why? Because it is one of the prettiest lines I have seen. (not trying for brownie points, I really feel this way). I was excited when you posted about it early on. I then saw it in the stores and loved it even more. I started with a charm pack, then another, then that fat quarter bundle looked so pretty. Then, Nadine had the nerve to show the cutest dress in her store made from Eden - had to have that and had to search for that print(everyone is selling out of it quickly). I am addicted to this line. I would love it because I would truly appreciate it.

I would love her to have something this pretty even if for just a short while as she has never owned anything remotely girly.

Hello, I love your designs and was surfing the net for your patterns when I came to your page. I would love to win your quilt and give it away to a military family that has had a loss. I lost my son to suicide shortly after he came home from Iraq. It has been 5 years now and I volunteer my time to help families that also have similiar losses. Your quilt would help to add some sunshine to an otherwise dreary time. Please view my son's memorial website at www.jason-cooper.memory-of.com

okay I was going to tell you why I want this quilt...but after reading Laurie's post, She was your first post.. about her 8 year-old daughter being so shy and working with her to be brave and make friends... I'll have to be honest I can't think of a better reason to win this quilt.

Why do I want to win the quilt? Because it's beautiful. I think it appeals to girls ....old and young. Your fabric line is girly yet sophisticated. It's very joyful.

This quilt makes me happy . . . I love the colors, the movement in the pattern and the image in my mind of a loved child being gifted this quilt. If I were to win this quilt, I would donate it to the Utah Valley Healthcare Foundation. I serve on the board and we have a live and silent auction at our annual major fundraising event "The Chocolate Extravaganza" on March 5th. All the proceeds go to the Newborn Intensive Care Unit at UVRMC so that babies not born healthy can ultimately go home with their families. It's amazing what goes on there for the tiniest and sickest of babies. So, imagine the joy not only of the person who bids high and wins this quilt, but the mommies, daddies and babies that will benefit from the proceeds!

What a beautiful quilt, a true feast for the eyes! Your fabric is so feminine and sing-songy :-) I love the symmetry and combination of techniques in the quilt. I know my 16-month old girl would love to cuddle with it.
Thanks for the inspiration!

Wow, I can't believe you're giving away that beautiful quilt! Although, come to think of it, I guess we all give away most of our creations - not to strangers though. It's gorgeous.

I would actually love to win this quilt for someone else, my mother. Her favorite color is purple and she has been such a wonderful inspiration in my life and the lives on amny, many others.

I would love to win this quilt. I love the colors - I have 5 daughters and you have all of their favorite colors in your new line - yellow, pink, green, purble, and orange - totally love it. I am a sewer - and love all the wonderful fabrics out these days - but have been afriad to start quilting - it intimidates me! Maybe if I win, it will inspire me to attempt my own quilt. I will definitely share on my blog! www.wellsscrapbookshowoff.blogspot.com

First of all, you have a gorgeous quilt there! Your fabric line is just that also, gorgeous! I would love to win your quilt giveaway or your pattern packs as I'm a stay at home disabled woman who has fibromyalgia, arthritis, and degenerative disk disease in my back. I think that quilt would be a ray of sunshine on any given day and I would truly appreciate it.

This is a fantastic line of fabric and you have made a wonderful quilt using them. Of course I would love to win this quilt, who wouldn't. But my reason is pure selfish, everyone else wants to give it to somebody but I would really like to have it for myself. I have MS and spend most of the day in my wheelchair the rest in my hospital bed. I would love to be able to cover with this ray of sunshine. I also have posted about it on my blog.

This is such a beautiful quilt. My little princess would absolutely love this quilt, and I would totally love for her to have it. Both of my kiddos are blanket babies, but my daughter's blanket is just getting to be rags, so this would be a beautiful quilt for her to love, and take place of her blankie.

Oh my word! That has to be the loveliest quilt I have EVER seen!!! Wow!
This would be so beautiful for my nearly 12-year-old's room, which is painted soft pink and green, and her favorite colors are purple and green lol! I can only imagine how much she would love this!
Any chance you are going to release a pattern for it???
- February 21, 2010 at 9:21 PM
I would give this beautiful quilt to my granddaughter who will be 6 on the 27th of February. She is my only granddaughter mixed in with 7 grandsons. Her room is purple and pink and this quilt would look so great on her bed. I love, love, love your fabrics. I have made several outfits for Maliea out of it. One was a really cute Disney Princess outfit she wore to DisneyLand and got a million comments on. Such bright and cheery fabric. Thanks for giving us all the chance to win this awesome quilt.

Absolutely gorgeous! I love it!
I want this quilt because:
1) I love quilts and would love to learn to make them
2) This one is stunning and I would give it to my daughter Olivia Sunshine...it matches her name and personality perfectly :)
3) I am learning to sew FINALLY after 30 years of being the daughter of an amazing seamstress, and this quilt gives me inspiration
4) NO ONE here in Hawaii has one like this and I would LOVE to display it in my living room....unless Olivia wants to have it on her bed, of course

That quilt is a beauty. My little granddaughter (age 5) is struggling in the midst of some family troubles at her home, and I would either let her have it at her bedroom in her house, so she could have some beauty and peace in her life each time she looks at it OR would let her help me redecorate her bedroom at our house, using that lovely quilt as our inspiration piece. Either way, I know she'd be happy each time she saw that quilt and knew it was for HER.

I would love this for my neice who is getting so big and has outgrown her baby blanket and probably needs a new quilt, but Auntie D (that's me, the family quilter) really can't add another project to the list right now. Thanks for the chance. She is such a girlie-girl (except when she's a super-hero) this would be perfect and loved, whether as a quilt or a cape.

I totally love this quilt. I could be noble and say I wanted to give it to one of my daughters or grand daughters, but no. This would stay with me. They all could come see it and enjoy it too, but it would be mine. I think I would decorate my guest room around this as the focal point. Yeah, I want it!!

Hi Lila,
I stopped by your blog this morning to oogle your beautiful "EDEN" fabric. I love your pattern designs and fabrics. I also love your choice of name for this particular line. The first of my six granddaughters is also named "EDEN". I am a quilter and was planning to purchase this pattern and fabric to make the quilt for my granddaughter who has Aspergers Syndrome and would feel so special having a quilt with fabric sharing her name.
Being fortunate enough to win just the pattern or fabric for this beautiful quilt would be blessing enough. I thank you, and Eden thanks you, for this opportunity and congratulations on another winning fabric design.
Best regars, Phyllis

I love this line of fabric. It makes me realize that spring can't be too far away. I would love to win this wonderful quilt to liven up my boring white walls in my studio, BUT, I was reading the other comments and read the comment from Molly at http://sewquiltwhatever.blogspot.com and how she has MS. Her story touched my heart the way the young girl in your first post did another commenter. I feel like the quilt would go to much better use and not only liven Molly's day, but those around her in the hospital as well. So, IF I were to win this quilt, please donate it to her in my name.
I choose a blog each day to spotlight, and I will be focusing on yours tomorrow (Feb 23). So, not only will people know about the quilt giveaway, they will have a permanent link to your blog.
- February 22, 2010 at 9:34 AM
Gorgeous! I'd love to start the redecoration of my daughter's room with this piece.
- February 22, 2010 at 9:36 AM
Your quilt was is so captivating, love the design and the colors are so "girlie" girl. It captured me and reminded me of my new granddaughter that was born last week. It has so much interest a lil one would enjoy looking at all you bright beautiful colors along with the center design. Great work. I am thrilled to have found your blog.

What a wonderful quilt! My daughter would want to claim this one since it's her favorite colors, but I would have to give it to my best friend. She was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and will start chemo next week before they can do surgery. She has to drive an hour to the hospital for treatment, so I'll be going with her often. I would love for her to have a bright, cheerful quilt to take with her. Thanks for the giveaway...it's very generous of you.

What an amazing quilt. Absolutely beautiful. Please count me in your generous giveaway.
You ask why I would want to win this delightful quilt? Well, it is truly beautiful and I would like to study it to better understand how you created it. And, I know an older woman who has just been put into an assisted care facility (hopefully not forever) and I'd love to give her this quilt to cheer her up and keep her warm. She caught a blood infection after a leg surgery and is having problems walking. But we all hoping for a full recovery.

I have just recently gotten in to making quilts. I had a very dear friend who was a master quilter that opened my eyes to all that is wonderful and warm and comfortable. She passed not long ago and her memory lives on in the civil war quilt that I was lucky enough to receive from her family. Not to mention all of her wonderful fabric. The quilt store I visit the most just got Eden in and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!! To have a quilt already finished with it would be BONUS!! I would look wonderful in my house!!

You have created a beautiful line in your Eden fabrics, but your generous giveaway of your quilt is priceless. I know of two places that it would be a showpiece, and one of them is in my own home:-}

I would love to win this quilt for Me. I am new to quilting, I inherited my mother's quilting things and unfinished projects and I now follow in her footsteps and make quilts and lap robes for donations to nursing homes, cancer patients and seriously ill children. I have never made a quilt for me as there are just to many people in need of a little comfort. This is why I would love to win just for me, as I could never make anything so beautiful and if I won it I wouldn't feel guilty keeping it for myself.

That's one gorgeous quilt! I want it because I just do, I'm in love with this fabric.

What lovely texture and wonderful ideas for techniques to make it unique. I want this quilt to see how you did each thing...I'm a visual learner and this would be great to add punch to an ordinary quilt. Then I'd gift it to my daughter who just found out she is pregnant...don't know that it'll be a girl yet so it can dress up my boudoir until we know! ha. Love the birdies esp! Shelley

What an amazing quilt!!! I am just beginning learning how to sew my own things and can't imagine that I'd ever be able to make anything so intricate and amazing. Plus my husband would probably shoot me if I tried to buy a quilt for what they are really worth.. And there are a couple of the many reasons that I would LOVE to have that quilt.

I would love to give this to my Daughter-in-Law because her and my son are in need of something fun and frilly in their lives... they have been trying to start a family and have been greatly disappointed for the last year... this would help soak up the tears of sadness and may at sometime hold the tears of joy... thanks

I would love to win the quilt as I've been a bit miserable lately...we have to move house (OMG what to keep and what to ditch....and ALL my fabric YIKES), I just had my first birthday without my mum and I have a medical complaint that isn't going away in any hurry. Love the colours you've chosen for it. I'd be equally happy with winning one of the patterns too...only coz I'm trying not to be greedy though! You did a fantastic job on the quilt, I just made my first and can only dream of doing something so fancy. Hugs Naomi

What a wonderful quilt to celebrate your "Eden" fabric line! I've enjoyed all your fabric, but this is my favorite color - purple. The quilt is an exquisite mixture of the various shades of purple and yellows and greens...so beautiful! The unusual design of the quilt makes the most of the fabric design...love it.

This would be a fabulous quilt for my little niece, who is such a little girly girl!! How cute would that be. What a generous giveaway. Thank you for allowing us all the chance at this quilt. Just beautiful!

I want the quilt for myself. I've never owned a quilt or made myself one. In Singapore, it would be pretty hard to buy a handmade quilt. Late at night when I'm sitting in front of my computer, I need a quilt to snuggle in. It's very girly, something my husband would never let me buy. But if I get it free...

Such a beatiful quilt! I love it and would love to have it for my girls' room. I have a 19 month old daughter and a 2 month old. Once the baby is sleeping through the night, I'm going to have them share the room and am trying to spruce it up right now and make it cozy and fun for them!
- February 22, 2010 at 7:33 PM
Beautiful! I would love it for my daughter. She has 2 little girls and I think it would be perfect for them!

I had to leave a bread trail so that I could find my way to the end of the commends.
I LOVE your quilt. It remind me of spring and I am yearning for spring. I would hang this quilt on the large wall in my foyer (behind glass).

The quilt is lovely, so girly and flouncy! I would like to win it so I could fondle it for awhile - but it's far too delightful to live in my house so I'd probably give it to my local library to auction for a fundraiser (I'm a huge fan of our teeny-tiny little village library and the incredible folks who work there).

Oh I would LOVE this beautiful quilt, because I've never owned a handmade quilt before! Actually, I've only ever owned a doona and covers, so this would be a DREAM come true! I could then see how one is made and maybe even make my own! I also love your new fabric range! The colours are so spring-y!

Your fabric designs and patterns are truly beautiful and unique. I would really love to win your quilt or your patterns. If I was lucky enough to do so, I would donate the quilt (or the quilt made from the pattern) to our church. Our church has come to our aid many times lately and I would love to repay them with a way to make money for missions. Thank you for the opportunity. jungkid49 at yahoo dot com

I love the lilac floral fabric. The quilt looks like a garden of Eden should look like in my opinion. I quilt by hand, don't know how I would ever make one that beautiful on a machine! Me and a sewing machine are a no good match! I would love to give it to my daughter, her bedroom is all lilac colored.Lots of succes with your give away.

I have just recently discovered your amazing work! I am in awe of the talent, especially juggling of such a large family. You are blessed. I would love to give this quilt to my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter who's father recently was deployed to Iraq to be a gunner on a blackhawk chopper. She misses him deeply. She could cozy up with this beautiful quilt and think of him. God Bless you all and keep up the wonderful work which blesses all of us who share it with you.

I was just thinking today how I needed to make a quilt to give my dear friend that is fighting ovarian cancer. I would give this beautiful quilt to her. It looks the perfect size for her to take with her to her treatments. The fabrics are bright and cheerful and remind me of spring and a fresh start. The design is inspriring. She needs some sunshine right now. I love your fabrics and have a big stack of them that I purchased from fabriclane at their sale. I have made several skirts, etc... I can't wait for your spring line.

- Barbara said...
The quilt and the fabrics are beautiful. It would be so easy to say that the quilt would be perfect for my granddaughter but .... she is 5 and loves to help me sew. We could design her quilt together and she would be happy. This quilt would go to my dear friend that is struggling with caring for her mother. Three years ago I lost my mom to Alzheimers and now I am watching and comforting my friend Cindy as her mom is slipping away. What an awesome quilt just for Cindy to curl up with after a very trying event with her mom. Cindy is an only child .... I am fortunate in having a sister that I was able to cry with, yell with and pray with ... but this quilt could be a warm hug at the end or beginning of the day. What a special quilt you have created and a special giveaway.

Oh my gosh, what a fabulous and generous giveaway!!! I have just used my little sample squares of 'Eden' that were in the Fat Quarter Shop sample boxes of 2 1/2" squares I bought last year. I love it so much, so bright and pretty just like my granddaughter Eden!!
She is the reason I would really, really love to win this quilt to give to here. She's a middle girl in a family of three girls and a baby brother. Dad left last year and she's taking it harder than the rest, but that's by the by! I would just so love to give her a quilt that was made entirely of fabric with the same name as herself. How exciting would that be? Even not winning I have to make her something from 'her' fabric I think.
I'm off to post about your giveaway now, have a great week and I'll just have to keep everything crossed for a win!!!

I'd love to win the quilt because this is the first fabric collection that I've seen that I couldn't pass up. I have several projects going on at once and kept telling myself...I have enough fabric...I have enough fabric...then I picked up the Eden collection anyway. I kept looking at it every chance I got and decided I may as well look at it in my own stash. It's beautiful.

I want this quilt!! It is so pretty and the ruffles are fabulous! Now what would I with such a quilt:
1) Keep it, this is the first thing that comes to mind. However, I love giving away things! I've only made 3 (and a half) quits and they have all been for other people!
2) Hoard it until one of my siblings/friends has a baby girl!
3) One of my friends, who is 23 now, was born with half a heart. She's been fine until several months ago when she was told she needed a valve replacement, then yesterday her surgeon suggested a heart transplant. BIG DIFFERENCE!! I think the pink ruffles in the center of the quilt look like hearts and would be perfect for Jessica!

I LOVE THIS QUILT!!! The second I saw it it brought me back to 1980 when I was pregnant, expecting my daughter who is now 29 years old and expecting herself!. I had a pet bird named Crystal, a cockatiel, which is one of the types of birds on one of the fabrics in this quilt. The sweet expression on that bird reminds me of her. Crystal used to on my pregnant belly while I scratched her head and whispered the dreams I had for my daughter to her. I would love to give this quilt to my daughter and tell her this story. I do not think she's already heard it and I think it would be a great story to tell at her baby shower in June.

Oh what a lovely story I red about Crystal and what a coincidence! My eldest daughter's name is Crystal. When I was ecpecting my husband and I thought our first born will be as pure as crystal!

How would you like to WIN a FULL YEAR membership to Early Expert: Spanish??
I was recently contacted by Early Expert: Spanish to do a review and giveaway about their online learning program. I jumped at the opportunity because Audrey was so eager to learn a new language and she LOVES using technology to learn.
I can honestly say that I was not disappointed in this amazing program! Early Expert: Spanish has been designed and created by teachers, game designers and experts in early language learning. This online learning program offers many opportunities for children to learn in different contexts, while playing interactive games. I love how this program really creates an atmosphere of confidence in young learners by scaffolding and providing the student with lots of support.
After 15-20 minutes of playing with the Early Expert Spanish games, Audrey had nearly mastered her colors in spanish and knew many names of different fruits and vegetables! Audrey loves this program!

I finally cleaned out my closet after letting it get progressively more messy for almost a year. I'm going to end up donating at least a third of my wardrobe because I realized I never wear those clothes. It took almost two hours to sort out everything. I just need to rest now.
Why aren't people posting more??

Baltimore is sinking. But it's not the ground that's doing the swallowing. Virtually all water mains have been in service for 65 years without regular inspections. More than half of storm drains were installed before 1950. Capital improvements and maintenance are leapfrogging the water utility's current maximum debt load of $1.017 billion for water and $1.11 billion for wastewater. Rates for both services have tripled since 1996 and, says Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, "we can't keep raising debt ceilings without thought to our ratepayers."
Indianapolis water rates are going up on Jan. 1, 2013, with more increases to come, reports Sarah Holsapple of Citizens Energy Group, the city's Department of Public Utilities. Having signed a consent decree to lower combined-sewer overflows, the city needs $1.8 billion to build a 25-mile deep tunnel system.
Communities across the country face similar financial demands accruing to similar water infrastructure imperatives; some the result of consent decrees, some not. The gap between how much water and wastewater utilities have and how much they need is at least $500 billion (see chart below).
To close the gap, many communities compete for low-interest loans through the state revolving fund (SRF) programs in the Clean Water Act and Safe Drinking Water Act. But congressional appropriations have been declining, and will continue to shrink. Likewise the White House; President Obama's 2013 budget proposal, for example, requests:
There are two other federal programs — one through the Agriculture Department, one through Housing and Urban Development — but they're tiny and targeted at a narrow slice of localities.
With current federal resources clearly inadequate to prevent a national "water Waterloo," communities through their professional and trade associations have come up with potential supplements that have landed on congressional desktops around the Capital.
Both of the following sources would supplement, not replace, the revolving loan programs.
Innovative financing fund. Baltimore's Rawlings-Blake was one of the co-sponsors of a resolution adopted by the U.S. Conference of Mayors' Water Council last summer to create a Water Infrastructure Financing Innovations Authority similar to the one in existence for roads through the Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovations Act.
Since 1998, the law's enabled the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to provide loans, loan guarantees, and standby lines of credit to regionally and nationally significant projects. Rep. Bob Gibbs (R-Ohio), chair of the Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee in the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, held two hearings this spring on a draft bill, but hasn't formally introduced the legislation.
Trust fund. Rep. Timothy Bishop (D-N.Y.) introduced legislation (H.R. 3145) that would create a similar investment fund as well as a Clean Water Trust Fund.
