I learned about organic fabrics and GOTS this last week on the Twitter chat #talknt. Very interesting stuff! Kudos to @daisyjanie for her great fabric line. Beautiful, too!ReplyDeleteReplies
So glad you could join the #talknt chat! Was a very enthusiastic group!Delete
I started sewing ... oh, back when dirt was young! Barbie doll clothes, "curtains" for my Barbie doll runway where I did my little fashion shows, a blanket for Barbie, that kind of thing.ReplyDelete
Congratulations on a terrific two years!
well someone has to go first i suppose :)ReplyDelete
I have been sewing for about 18 months, although I only really get a chance to sew about once or twice a week, in the evenings after my kids have gone to bed.
My blogiversary is actually coming up in March! I've been hand sewing since I was 9, machine sewing for the past 11 years.ReplyDelete
Great Giveaway! I love, love, love that fabric! I have been quilting for about 20 years. Love blogs! So much inspiration and instruction! Thanks for a chance.ReplyDelete
What lovely fabrics!! :) I've been sewing almost 20 years, since I started making little dresses for my first baby girl. :)ReplyDelete
i've been blogging for a month... =) i started sewing when i was about 9, but i didn't start up again until last year. and i love it!ReplyDelete
I started sewing regularly about six months ago and I just started blogging in January. It has been so great to meet so many supportive ladies and see all the creative things they come up with!ReplyDelete
Happy Blogiversary!! I've been blogging for three years. It has been such an inspiration to learn from so many creative and giving people. Thanks for such a generous giveaway!ReplyDelete
I have been sewing for over 50 years and the current trend in organic fabrics had got to be the most beautiful EVER!! These are gorgeous--thanks for the chance to win and happy bog-iversary :DReplyDeleteReplies
This has to be one of the most heartwarming comments I've read in a long time! Can't imagine all the beauty you've created in 50 years!Delete

My grandmothers taught me to embroider, knit and crochet when I was pretty young. I started sewing actual clothing in my teens and have continued another 40 years. I added machine embroidery this past year and am newly excited to go as long as I can still see to do it, lol. I love these fabrics! Thank you for sharing!Delete
Oooh! Gorgeous! I've been blogging for 9 months and not on a consistent basis. Tisk. Tisk. My favorite sewing project has been liners that I made to go in diaper boxes I converted to storage bins. Happy blogiversary!ReplyDelete
I love this bundle!! My first blog birthday is in a few days!! Can't believe it's been that long already. I just really started to get into sewing and my favorite so far has been a custom order vendor apron in chevron stripe!ReplyDelete
I've only been really sewing for the last five years. Before that, I'd make a project or two here and there. Happy Blogiversary!ReplyDelete
one of my fave projects ever was the purse I made for a friend. She picked out the fabric and I chose the style and surprised her and it was perfect! She still uses it!ReplyDelete
Great giveaway, I have been sewing on and off for about 30 years!! much more into yarn now but love to combine the two thanks Dianne xxxReplyDelete
Thank you for the wonderful giveaway! I love those pretty flowers! I took my first sewing class when I was pregnant with my now 4 year old daughter. I enjoy making skirts for my 2 girlies, gifts for babies, and being able to whip together simple projects.ReplyDelete
Congratulations!!! I have been sewing since last March and I love it!!ReplyDelete
Thanx for a chance to win.
I don't have the bogging thing down yet. I have recently returned to sewing. However, my old sewing experience is what I learned in high school. I made a bobbed skirt. It came out very well. I used to wear it all the time. So 3 years ago, I decided to get a sewing machine. It sat for almost 2 years before I used it. Fear. Afraid of the fancy machine & afraid I couldn't sew. I have completed a quilt top and will be working on a dress for my granddaughter 2nd birthday. Gonna need some luck!ReplyDelete
I've been sewing just over 1year and blogging for almost 1 year. thecraftingfiend(at)gmail.comReplyDelete
Despite my mother's repeated efforts to teach me to sew, I never really enjoyed it when I was younger. But when my daughter was born 7 years ago, I wanted to make her halloween costumes. Which of course meant smaller projects for practice. And then suddenly I was hooked. My parents bought my first sewing machine for Christmas later that year. And just last week, I invested in a new machine with more features for quilting since I have become an avid fan in the past couple years. There's something about giving gifts and making things for your kids that is immensely gratifying. And as a stay at home mommy with an art degree, it's a fantastic and functional outlet for all that bottled up creativity.ReplyDelete
I love reading your blog and seeing all of your wonderful ideas. Congratulations on 2 years!! I hope to see you around for many more :)
The baby blankets for the little ones in my life, are what I loved doing. They were filled with love, and given as such, and who can't always add more fabric to their personal stash?ReplyDelete
Gorgeous, Gorgeous! Makes me think of spring! But here in Iowa we have had a little taste of spring this week! But snow is coming and colder temps. Congratulations on your blog anniversary! Li voe your encouragement, pictures and giveaways! Thank you for your inspiration! I have been sewing and crafting for about 30 years. It is a comfort and a calm for me! I love to see the projects to completion and then to give them as a gift and to see the faces of the ones receiving it! Blessings to you all!ReplyDelete
Oh I just found this line this week and I've fallen in love with it !!ReplyDelete
I'd love to get my hands on some :)
I've been sewing for about 3 years now and blogging for a couple months.
It's silly but all the quilts I made are my favorites. I can't pick one. Although, when I finished my very first quilt, I was amazed that I could do that !!
Those fabrics are great! What a nice giveaway. Happy Blog-iversary! I just started my blog a few months ago. My last post has many pictures from the Road of California Quilt show in Ontario CA, if anyone is interested. LOTS of art quilts! Thanks for the chance to win.ReplyDelete
Good morning Ms. Maureen, Thanks for another chance to win some yummy fabric. Have a great weekend!!! firstname.lastname@example.com
Love the fabrics. My grandmother taught me to sew when I was 8 (as I have done for my gdaughters). That was ummmmmm - 57 years ago!ReplyDelete
email@example.com I love sewing blankets and donateing to charities..thanks for the generous give away..nicole..ReplyDelete
Thank you for the giveaway! What beautiful colors!ReplyDelete
I've been successfully sewing for maybe a year or two. My favorite thing I have ever made was a cross-stitch quilt blanket with animals on it. I figured I loved it so much it was hard to part with. Eventually, it'll go to my first born grandchild. :)
More recently, I've gotten into trying out little purse patterns, which have proven to bring me great joy! Thanks again!
I haven't seen this line before, it is gorgeous, thanks for showing me it! And thanks for the chance to win. I've almost been blogging for two years too, it has gone very quickly.ReplyDelete
i liked Shades of Grey and Geo Grand but felt they needed more color. This bundle totally delivers. I have a penchant for vibrant colors, yet I feel so drawn to this color combination. I love the interplay of feminine motifs on a color palette I would consider more masculine. I would absolutely love to win this bundle!!ReplyDelete
Ha I have been sewing for at least 40 years. I used to watch my Grandmother make up her own patterns to match the latest Vogue magazine clothing. I just love making funky quilts..no perfection here! Thanks for the chance to win this awesome fabric!!ReplyDelete
What a delicious bundle. My blogiversary was a couple of weeks but that one's all about dogs and rescue. I've been sewing for about 14 months now and I've got so addicted and am now learning all kinds of other crafts that I think I'm going to have to start a crafty blog too because the excitement is just bursting out of my ears with no outlet!ReplyDelete
What a wonderful and generous giveaway! The fabrics are fantastic. My favorite thing to make... anything that I'm making for my kiddos or nieces and nephews! I just enjoy the process!ReplyDelete
Tilly is a great fabric collection. I have been sewing on and off for most of my life. I made a little pin cushion when I was 11 that I still have. 54 years ago. Wow. Older than dirt!ReplyDelete
Happy Blog-iversary! I love your blog. I have been sewing for most of my life. For Christmas, I made my dear daughter-in-love a purse. I struggled over color choice because she and I have very different taste. She loved it and when she took it to work, her co-workers asked if it was a Vera!! I'm really proud of that bag but it was a bugger to make!ReplyDelete
I love these colors! I think my favorite thing I have ever made is whatever I just finished.ReplyDelete
Well I started sewing at a young age, I remember my 6th grade Home-Ec teacher Mrs. Ruff taught us how to make a pillowcase on the sewing machine, I learned also from my Mom. But just in the past 5 years or so have I been quilting, my most recent accomplishment was a king sized postage stamp wuilt I made for the hubs. Currently Im working on matching twin bed quilts with pillow shams for the wee ones - all scrappy wonky stars.ReplyDelete
Those fabrics are absolutely gorgeous! In my early 20s I belonged to a medieval recreation group and learned to sew clothing from the middle ages! I hadn't sewn in about 15 years and recently started again last summer. Now I love making clothing for my daughter and bags wristlets/clutches. Thanks so much for the great blog and the generous giveaway!ReplyDelete
Such a lovely give away! Thanks so much. Love to read your posts! My favourite thing is a butterfly wallquilt I made as one of my very first quilts. I still love it very much!And I love to look at it again and again when I visit my mother-in-law because I gave the quilt to her, to brighten her days!ReplyDelete
I love making baby blankets for my friends. Love this fabric!ReplyDelete
I started sewing when I was in high school and couldn't find clothes to fit me. I have since lost all the extra weight but not the love of sewing. I'm now a great-grandmother and love to quilt.ReplyDelete
The Tilly fabric is GORGEOUS! Thanks for another great giveaway. I have been sewing for a few years. Congratulation Maureen on the two year anniversary, I love your blog.ReplyDelete
I've been blogging for four years now, more or less. These fabrics are lovely! m dot cartledgehayes at insightbb dot comReplyDelete
Congratulations on 2 years Maureen!ReplyDelete
I've been sewing since I was around 8!
Next on my list are Dresden plates!!
After I retired, I rescued an unfinished quilt project put away in frustration earlier - made a few adjustments and finished it - now love it on my sofa.ReplyDelete
My mother learned me how to sew and many other crafty things. I sewed all my clothes when I was a teenager. Recently I learned how to sew shirts for my daughter and I love them.ReplyDelete
Hope I am lucky!
I LOVE the Tilly fabric - what a wonderful giveaway! To answer the question, I guess I have been sewing as a very intermittent hobby for most of my life, but I have gotten more seriously into quilting in the last two years or so. It's an addictive past-time!ReplyDelete
Congrats on two years blogging! I myself have three blogs and have been doing it for almost four years. Sewing has been about the same, too, when my daughter was born I started making things for her. Your shop and blog are super cute, I just found you :) Keep up the good work!ReplyDelete
Congratulations! I've been blogging only a little longer than you, about 2.5 years. I've been sewing for 17 years.ReplyDelete
Congratulations on Two Years:) And thanks for a great giveaway! I started sewing a little over a year ago. Bought my sewing machine, came home and started googling, finding sewing blogs, used my seam ripper a ton, but eventually finished my first project! I am so thankful for all the bloggers, like yours, that inspire, share, and teach newbies like myself:)ReplyDelete
I love your blog, and feel so inspired when I read what you're up too! I've just recently started to applique and having quite a bit of fun with it! Congrats on two years blogging!ReplyDelete
Congrats on two years of sharing and inspiring! The fabric is lovely through and through.ReplyDelete
i treasure the first cathedral window quilt i did, but i gve it to my mother in law for her bed. i did, years later make a christmas cathedral window quilt for my bed and i do keep it out for several months after the holiday. i love the star shapes and have been collecting materials to make either a quilt or a table runner.ReplyDelete
Wanting to make each one of my sons a quilt using pieces from their late father's shirts.ReplyDelete
Happy Anniversary!!
I have been blogging for about 8 months now, Its challenging and inspiring - I love it! About two months I made a bag with some great fabric - but itwas huge. I never thought I would actually be able to fill it up. Well now I use it everyday - and its full. Haha, I get so many compliments about it. I really should make another one! P.s. I love your blog!ReplyDelete
As a retired science teacher, I love the introduction of organic fabrics into the marketplace!!! I started sewing when I was 13....I was the winner of a sewing machine at the New York State fair. Been sewing ever since!! I'll be stopping by your blog now that I've found it!!ReplyDelete
I started sewing when I was very young, but it became a more consistent hobby in college. I made money on the side selling patchwork tote bags. And once I got married, quilting really became the focus of my sewing. I've been blogging for about 2 years now, too!ReplyDelete
Happy blog-iversary. The favorite thing I've made lately are a couple of "Gum Drop Pillows" - an Amy Butler pattern. A fun accessory, and I made them in color schemes to match my 2 girls' bedrooms.ReplyDelete
Congratulations!I began sewing sixteen year ago and quilting five. Te most favorite thing I've ever made is my first quilt.ReplyDelete
I love this:) like your blog alot. Best wishes from Italy email@example.com
Hi: My name is Teresa and I have two blogs, one for cooking, http://aureaskitchen.blogspot.com/, and one for sewing, http://aureascorner.blogspot.com/ReplyDelete

My favorite thing, clothing for my childern. I made beautiful clothing for each of them. I hand tailored my son's jackets. I made a beautiful matching coat and dress for my daughter. Now I'm working on a few quilts that I can't wait to finish. The fabric is gorgeous and would make a wonderful throw for a young married couple I know.ReplyDelete

Happy Blogiversary! I almost feel like I'm cheating since I already purchased some of this fabric. It is my first time working with organic fabric and I just love it! Very high quality fabric in beautiful colors. This fabric is a major player in a room redecorating effort. It is part of a cushion cover, a quilt throw, and a pillow, so far. I would love to add even more touches of Tilly to my room. Thanks for the chance to win!ReplyDelete
- JosanneFebruary 3, 2012 at 9:48 AM
I started sewing August of last year(hubby bought me a sewing machine as my birthday present - he's such a doll).. I've only made one item so far as life was pretty hectic.. It still is, but I plan to make the time to sew more this year.. I'm also yet to start a blog (I still need to build up the confidence)ReplyDelete
Happy Blog Anniversary! Your posts always inspire me. Thanks for that! Love these Tilly fabrics! I have been sewing since I was a teenager but only became CONSUMED by it once I changed from sewing clothes to quilts.ReplyDelete
Beautiful fabric - I have a few pieces of her organic fabric and it's fantastic. I haven't been sewing for long but I think my favorite thing was the art bag I made for a friends daughter. It had pockets and a built in crayon roll.ReplyDelete
Oh my, so beautiful! Happy Anniversary! I've only been sewing quilts and such for about a year, until then I only sewed doll bodies!ReplyDelete
Gorgeous fabric! Thanks for the nice giveaway! I've been sewing a long time ... learned how to sew in "Home Ec" in high school and I graduated in 1977!ReplyDelete
Congratulations! I just passed my five year mark of my quilting buisness. It's fun to see what has been accomplished in that time. Thanks for the cute giveaway!ReplyDelete
I've been sewing since I was 12...let's just say that was quite a while ago! I've only been blogging for about 1/2 year. Favorite thing I've made? Gosh, too many. The quilt for my husband, the puppet curtain/theater & puppets for my neices, the tee-pee's for my neices & nephews. The best part about making things is giving them away so it's more about that, I think, than making it. Seeing kids literally jump up and down and squeal in delight over something you made is indescribable! Congrats on the blogaversary! I really enjoy your individual style!ReplyDelete
Oh, those colors would be perfect in my home. thanks for a chance to win them.ReplyDelete
Congrats on your anniversary. I have been blogging since 2008 and quilting since 1999.

I love lots of different crafts but have to say my passion is fabric and I have lots of it! I started about 6 years ago when I enquired about purchasing a quilt in my local quilt shop and was told I could come to a class and learn to make my own. And so it began, I've made quilts for family and a few friends and I now try to make something different when I get the time. Happy anniversary and keep blogging :)ReplyDelete
Happy Blogiversary! The fabric is beautiful I've been sewing for well over a decade but the past few years I have sewn more and more. I'd really love to blog my sewing and baking adventures, but so far I haven't been able to keep up with it. Right now the favorite thing I've sewn is a pillow that looks like my house. It is so cute!ReplyDelete

Happy Blog-iversary!!ReplyDelete
What scrummy Fabric!
I've been sewing since I was diddy! (some would say I'm not much taller now!).. I still have the first piece of embroidery I did as flower with my name under it! At the age of 3!
Sewing saw me clothed through Uni and I think my mom would disown me if i ever bought a pair of curtains!
Although I've been sewing all my life I only got into quiltinga couple of years ago.. and LOVE IT!!
Congrats on two years! I have been sewing since October of this past year when I went and spent a week with my mother and she tried to pass on all of her knowledge to me. I think my favorite things to make have been purses and cosmetic bags.ReplyDelete
Happy Anniversary!! Love the fabrics.ReplyDelete
Happy Blogiversary! This fabric is wonderful! My favorite thing I've ever made was a quilt for my brother. It was pretty simple, but I hand quilted it all and loved doing it. That he really loves the quilt just adds to my "favoriting" it.ReplyDelete
This fabric is beautiful! I have just started blogging, but have been sewing for a long time. My favorite thing I have made was a cute little valentines dress for my daughter when she was a toddler.. she's in her pre-teens now, but I still have the dress. Too Cute!!! email@example.com
Happy Blog-iversary! My favorite sewn item is my one and only quilt. I'm hoping to finish up a second one this spring. :)ReplyDelete
My favorite thing I made is a patchwork valentine skirt for my daughter. It's so ruffley and bouncy. She bounces around the whole day when she wears it and it make me smile. I have only been sewing for a few months but have fallen in love with it. I appreciate all the online resources as I have no one here to teach me. I have been considering signing up for a class I think it would be lots of fun. I also think it would be good to learn the proper way of doing things rather than just winging it.ReplyDelete
Love your site!
Happy anniversary! I started my first blog 4 years ago when I got married. It is a private blog for my family on the adventures of being married to someone in the army. A public blog like yours is a lot more fun to have because you get to interact with people and get to know them. :)ReplyDelete
I have been blogging almost a year, quilting for 38 years and sewing forever! I love the idea of organic cottons and these are very special!ReplyDelete
Congats on your two year anniversary. I love to quilt, refinish furniture, and lurk on Pinterest...lol. My favorite craft would be my embroidery of a paper airplane with the words..."fly". Very simple, but it makes me happy!ReplyDelete
Congrats! I've been sewing for almost 30 years now (and boy, does saying that make me feel old!) and just starting quilting about five years ago. It is such good therapy!ReplyDelete
I am brand new to sewing but am loving every minute of it. It is a complete adventure as I explore different fabrics, patterns and techniques.ReplyDelete
IveO only been sewing for a year and a half now - I have so much to learn! The fabric bundle is beautiful. Thanks for the chance to win and good luck everyone!ReplyDelete
I've been sewing for about two years. My favorite quilt so far is a log cabin throw that I actually still need to quilt. I am drawn to so many styles now that it amazes me how traditional most of my original quilts are.ReplyDelete
Congrats! I love a mermaid doll I made for my littlest girl. I have lots of favorites, though -- even the ugly ones :) Thanks!ReplyDelete
Lovely Fabric! I've been blogging for almost 5 years now I think but sew-blogging for about a year.ReplyDelete
I've been sewing since I was 8- almostt 25! My dad taught me how to use the sewing machine and we made pillowcases. I wish I still had them :( Thank you so much for the giveaway- the fabrics are beautiful!ReplyDelete
- CatherineFebruary 3, 2012 at 10:20 AM
I love these!ReplyDelete
This fabric is gorgeous. I have been blogging for about 4 years, but only started promoting my blog about 18 months ago. It's a fun ride, that's for sure. :)ReplyDelete
My favorite thing I made was an easter dress 3 yrs ago for my oldest. Thanks for the giveaway it is so prettyReplyDelete
I love Daisy Janie fabrics! I really want some her Shades of Gray fabric, too! I sewed about ten years ago, but life got in the way a bit (to say the least). After a move that made me leave my beloved job, I now have time and space for sewing and quilting again! Yippee!!!!ReplyDelete
Happy Blogiversary Maureen!!!ReplyDelete
I have been sewing for 7 years, blogging about it for 1 1/2 years! My favorite project that I have made is the skirt I just finished for myself. It is awesome. I also love the Rapunzel dress I made for my daughter for Halloween! :)
Happy blogging!
Happy blogiversary! I've been sewing for almost two years, and I absolutely love it. I've made a bunch of different things as I've been learning, but my favorites are simple knit dresses for my daughter... she's my biggest fan! :) Thanks so much for the chance, and for such a super blog!ReplyDelete
I think my most favorite thing I have ever made was a Bucilla felt stocking "Fireman Santa" that I made three years ago for my husband the firefighter. I put my heart and soul into that stocking, every hand stich! He loved it! I now have a sewing machine and I'm teaching myself to sew, this would make an awesome addition to my growing collection of fabric... I may have an addiction problem! ha ha..ReplyDelete
I've been sewing since jr high home ec. class, where we made a scarf first and then went on to a pillowcase. I love this organic fabric bundle..just beautiful.ReplyDelete
And Happy Blogversary... =)
Happy blogiversary! I have been sewing for 14 years.ReplyDelete
What beautiful fabric!! Thank you for the chance to win!!! :-) My favorite sewing projects were all the dresses that I made for my girls when they were growing up... Sewing for children is such fun-- the more ruffles and lace, the better! :-) I loved to take a pattern and "make it my own" by adding embellishments such as ribbons, embroidery, lace, etc... I'd usually change the sleeves, bodice or neckline-- use the same pattern for both girls, but make each dress unique. Fun memories! :-)ReplyDelete
What a great giveaway! I really like this collection, I think it's my favorite by Daisy Janie yet! Thank you for the chance.ReplyDelete
Happy blogiversary! I've been blogging about sewing/crafts for about the same amount of time as you. We officially started Stumbles & Stitches in January 2010. I had been sewing on and off (mostly off) since I was a kid due to a super crafty mom and grandmas, but I really picked it up shortly after I had my first child about 4 years ago. My life has never been the same!
Have a lovely weekend. :)
Happy 2 years! I stared sewing at the age of nine. My mother was a seamstress by trade so I began as soon as I could reach the pedal. :) I started my blog about 6 months ago, I love how it chronicles your work over time. Congrats!ReplyDelete

I'm just a beginner,but i made a double quilt,with help from my aunt.ReplyDelete
The fabric bundle looks great...I'm just a follower in the blog world...
Hi Maureen....Happy Blog-iversary!!!! I have been quilting for over 25 years now. My mother-in-law got me into it, she passed away 2 years ago and I think of her every day while in my sewing room. I love this fabric; thank you for much for this giveaway. What I love about sewing...I love to hand quilt;that is what I do. But I am taking the FMQ Challenge to learn new things....it is so much fun to keep learning; never too old!!ReplyDelete
I have been drooling over this collection since it came out! I used to sew with my grandma when I was little. I wasn't quite old enough to pick up all her skills, but the ones that stuck have helped. Of course in my teens I found more important things than sewing. When she passed away in 2008, I was given her sewing machine. Due to sentimental reasons, I didn't want to use it. I decided last year to pull it out and start sewing again. I am now addicted to sewing and can't live without it. I cherish my memories of sewing with my grandma and am grateful for her sharing her love with me.ReplyDelete
Congratulations. You're just a baby when it comes to sewing, but you've made some awesome stuff. I hate to tell you how many years I've been sewing. And thanks for the fabulous giveaway--I love Daisy Janie!ReplyDelete
happy 2 yrs.ReplyDelete
I'm already a follower
rather "new" at quilt blogging.
have been quilting for about 8 yrs, made my daughter a quilt when I was pregnant with her and this thing is in SHREDS! it's SO loved :-) I've fixed little holes before but now the two long borders are pretty much gone and almost all the quilting threads have been pulled out, I don't know HOW this thing still holds together, but it's SO SO soft, she sleeps with it every night. I've also made her other quilts since then, but they can't replace this one.
Oh man, those are gorgeous! I have no idea what my most favorite thing is! I've been sewing for about four years. I got a sewing machine for my birthday when I was pregnant with my son. As for my favorite thing I've made, I think it would have to be the quilt I gave my mother-in-law for Christmas two years ago. Not perfect, but very pretty, and I'm still impressed with it when I happen to see it draped over her couch.ReplyDelete

What lovely fabric! My favorite type of sewing is quilting.ReplyDelete
I am just starting to learn to sew. Made my first simple cafe curtain panels a couple of weeks ago!ReplyDelete
Well, I have been sewing since I would sit under mother's ironing board and complain that I had "nothing new to do." Mom would hand me material and a needle and thread adn say "make something." That's been about 45 years. yikes. I have all the plans made for what I want to blog - just have to get it started.ReplyDelete
i would love to win! i have been sewing since i was a wee lad. i started quilting in 2005. i started blogging in 2008 but really didn't start blogging for real last year!ReplyDelete
Been sewing for 2 years, blogging almost as long! Thanks for the chance, Maureen!ReplyDelete
Happy Sewiversary! Please pick me Mr.Random...ReplyDelete
Wow! Only 2 years of sewing and look at what you do! Your work is lovely and inspirational.
Congratulations on your anniversary!ReplyDelete
My favorite thing ever made was a Lois Ericson vest.
I've recently started sewing again after breaking both wrists 6 years ago.
One of my favorite things I ever made was a blue and white mystery quilt that I gave to my son. Thanks for the giveaway!ReplyDelete
I've been sewing on and off since 1994. There was a huge hiatus when I returned to college in 2002/2003 for three years. I've been blogging for two years.ReplyDelete
Thank you for a chance to win.
Beautiful fabrics! I started a blog at the end of last February as a place to keep track of my projects. Because of positive comments and interest in the blog, I've become more proud of my creations and more ready to share the joy with others. Thanks for your inspiration!ReplyDelete
I started sewing at a very young age. I guess about 6 or so. I wanted barbie clothes and proceeded to make some. I laid the doll down and cut around her, sewed it up - but :( it did not fit.ReplyDelete
My Mother helped me out and began to teach me how to sew.
I have been blogging I guess for maybe 2 months? My Sister (and some internet friends newly made :-) ... have been helping me learn how.
My favorite thing? I guess would be the Words of Wisdom Wedding Quilt. (Borrowed my Sister Gwen's idea)
My son was married on 9.10.11 and I have 100 muslin blocks with handwritten words of wisdom and signatures. They are joined with 1 inch sashing in soft 30's colors and have a row of hearts at top and bottom. It is being quilted now and I am looking forward to this quilt "landing" at their new home. (Secretly hoping it will be a "baby maker") Laughing to myself I say this. We'll see! :-)
What a cool giveaway... Felt odd to sign in for your giveaway, when I have my own going on - but as it is very different well I thought I would cope :) thanks for the reminder.. I ma not sure whether it is the best thing I saw, but I made a hot water bottle cover http://noaslibellule.blogspot.com/2011/12/le-defi13-du-froid.html - and it is the one thing I use ALL the time. it is freezing in London and that is all I need for the night..ReplyDelete
Gorgeous colors and patterns!ReplyDelete
Congratulations on your two year blog anniversary.
I think my favorite thing that I have made was the lap quilt that I
made for my mother for Mother's Day 2 years ago. It was my first try

her at that time. She passed away 5 months later.
I've been sewing for about a year and three months now, and blogging for just a month longer! I'm so glad I discovered both!ReplyDelete
I love these fabrics! I've been sewing seriously for a little over a year, and it never gets old! Congrats on your blog-iversary :)ReplyDelete
Love this collection! I've been sewing and blogging for about 3 years now. Like you, it has changed my life too. I can't imagaine not having it in my life...I mean, what would I do? :)ReplyDelete
I taught myself to sew about 2 years ago, and I'm quite proud that I haven't thrown my machine out the window yet. Believe me, it's been touch-and-go a few different times.ReplyDelete

I learned to sew at a Singer store ... so you know that was a long time ago :)! I started a blog several years ago, the end ... never really got in the groove with it. (still trying tho)ReplyDelete
Happy Anniversary! I have been sewing about 18 years! I started way back in 6th grade!ReplyDelete
I've been sewing on and off (mostly off!) since I was a kid and sewed with my mom. I started seriously sewing about two and a half years ago when I discovered the online sewing/quilting community. I never knew there was so much beautiful fabric out there. Add to that the fact that I can order fabric online from the US at about 30-40% cheaper than in Canada, and there was no stopping me! Congratulations of your blog-iversary! :)ReplyDelete
Congrats on 2 years! And thanks for the fabulous giveaway, I love that fabric.ReplyDelete
Happy Blogiversary!!! I enjoy all the eye candy on your blog. I've been blogging for a few years although just last month started my own blog. I've been sewing for years and years .... it was a necessity to learn when my children were young - and I've never regretted it! Thanks for the chance to win your giveaway.ReplyDelete
those colors and prints are great-fabric is a weakness for me-my mind works faster than my body when it comes to using my fabric stash-all these great ideas when I see fabric and not enough time in a day to use it all-I have been sewing for about 45 years -(not everyday)-not a blogger yet but thinking about it-hope all have a wonderful dayReplyDelete
The favorite think I've ever made, would have to be a hand painted family rules sign, followed by pillows for my couch!ReplyDelete
I've been blogging properly since October but have been sewing on and off for 4/5 years now :)ReplyDelete
Happy anniversary! My favorite thing I've made is a star quilt made from 1930s fabrics. I'm hand quilting it now andReplyDelete
I love how it is looking.
Happy anniversary, Maureen! :) I've been sewing for a couple years and it's hard to pick a favorite thing I've sewn. I love making rug mugs and skirts and pants for little ones.ReplyDelete
Hi, I've been sewing for just over 4 years now and a good day is one when I get to create something!ReplyDelete
I've been sewing for about 10 months. My favorite thing I've made is a quilt I just finished last month.ReplyDelete
My favorite thing i've ever made is my very first quilt. Well, two quilts, they were done at the same time, for a Breast Cancer fundraiser. I thought they were GORGEOUS and I wanted to keept them both really bad.ReplyDelete
(long time reader, first time commenter :))ReplyDelete
Happy blogiversary! I love your work and amazed that you've only been blogging 2 years - your words and pictures are all so inspiring.
My most favouritest sewing project is a bucket bag from The Bag Making Bible. It's huge, practical, most of the seams match (an achievement for me!) and was made especially to show off a giant crochet motif that I made. And I really love its bright colours :)
I started sewing when I was about 9. 4-H, and a mom who sewed were my first teachers. Hard to pick a favorite. I sewed for myself, my kids, now quilting for grandchildren and great-grandchildren. I have only been blogging for a few months. No teacher, so still trying to get the hang of it.ReplyDelete
Happy anniversary! I just completed some fabric boxes and I LOVE them! They are my favorite at the moment!!!ReplyDelete
Started sewing about 2 years ago--my husband bought me a sewing machine for our anniversary! Previously I had made one set of shorts in highschool which were pretty lousy :) But, I love it!ReplyDelete

Our first little house was in an old neighborhood and two houses down were two elderly sisters who hand pieced a baby quilt out of their childrens baby clothes and old chenile blankets. They taught me how to sandwich the quilt and bind it. It started my love for quilting.ReplyDelete
That quilt lasted was past on to my grandson, who loved it for seven more years. It finally became so tattered after 27 years, that we had to put it to rest. The three of us actually all shed a tear of two. Yet we thank our two angels who showed their love of quilting and were willing to part with their own family history to make a quilt for our family.
I have been sewing for about year, so definetly still a beginner! I love Daisy Janie and especially the Tilly line!ReplyDelete
Congratulations on two years! I've been blogging, not seriously or regularly,since about 2007. I started as a procrastination method during grad school. :) Thank you for sharing your own life on the internet for us all to gain from, I love it!ReplyDelete
Happy Anniversary!! and many more!ReplyDelete
I've sewn all my life.. so about 40 years lol but really took it up again this past year, I love making wallets and purses the most.. thank you for the giveaway!

Let's see, I only started blogging in August of last year. I started to give me something to do while I nursed my new little baby, but it turned into a great way to network and meet new friends!ReplyDelete
I have been sewing for about 5 years now and stared quilting a year ago. Tilly is a beautiful fabric line. Thanks for the chance.ReplyDelete
Happy anniversary, and thanks for the nice giveaway! I have been sewing since I was 10 - which is longer than I care to admit on this somewhat public forum(!) and have been quilting off and on for about 10 year. Love the quilting!ReplyDelete
Happy blogiversary! I am just shy of one year on my blog - I was inspired by folks like you that are creative, inspiring, and generous enough to share online what you do in real life!

Thanks for including my comment in your giveaway.
I have been sewing as long as I can remember. However, I have gotten more serious in the last couple years. I think I probably started to blog over two years ago? I had a different blog originally and only transferred over a couple of my old posts.ReplyDelete

Dear Maureen, Congratulations to your anniversary! I can't believe you saying that you have sewn only two years - perhaps I didn't understand right?! I have been sewing all my life, almost, perhaps about 40 years and we are writing our blog with Nero about 1,5 years. After all that sewing at the moment I think my favourite sewing has been "Nero's Garden" quilt. It was a new challenge for me and I enjoyed every moment!ReplyDelete
Thank you for a wonderful give away! Those fabrics are so beautiful!
Sunny wishes! x Teje

Happy Cotton Anniversary! I really enjoy your blog, your palette, and your tutorials, especially those you have for kids' projects. I started my first quilt in 1997, but I have yet to finish it!ReplyDelete
Happy blogiversary! I had a hard time determining when I really started sewing; if you count the disastrous t-shirt in home ec in grade 8, it's been about 30 years, but then there was a tremendous "dry spell" until last year when my hubby bought me a sewing machine for our anniversary. Since then, I have been sewing constantly, mostly self- and blog-taught, especially since the birth of my first grandchild, a beautiful girl! Always on the lookout for beautiful fabrics for quilts for her, or dresses or.....whatever catches my eye! Thanks for the opportunity to win, it's been a pleasure reading your blog and I look forward to many more years enjoying you!ReplyDelete
Beautiful fabric!!! I am such a fall color girl. Love it!! I have been quilting for about 2 years now and I love to read your fabulous blog. Thank you!ReplyDelete
I love these fabrics! I am a novice sewer. My first sewing experience was in junior high in the 70's. As a young mother in the 80's, I made a few things but didn't stick with it. I have had a renew interest in sewing in the past year or so and have made two quilts and several things for Christmas. I am inspired by your site and others.ReplyDelete
I've only been sewing for about a year & a half, and sporadically, but I love it!ReplyDelete
Congratulations! My favourite items to make are Christmas wallhangings, and my most favourite is a Nativity Silhouette appliqued on a batik background. Thanks for the chance to win your giveaway.ReplyDelete
I love so many of your items... honestly! I can't wait for the time to come that I can do some serious shopping with you. I love the pillow you have pictured on this blog. I've started sewing aprons to sell since October. Trying to make enough cash to take my family to the Aquarium to see Belugas. That's it for me, thanks for another opportunity at a giveaway!ReplyDelete

Favorite thing I've ever made? That's a tough one. The easy answer would be to say that I almost always like my current project the best. I do tend to love clothing items, especially stuff for my little girls. I've been sewing since I was a young girl, I picked up the love of sewing from my mother.ReplyDelete
Happy Two Year Blogaversary!ReplyDelete
My favorite thing, is usually what I am working on, lol.
One of my favorite that I have now is, an older quilt that I made with fabrics and clothing from my family, so it has a lot of memories in it.

Lovely fabrics. I've been sewing since the dawn of time. I came from a family of non-sewers (grandmother or mother) so learned in 4-h when I was in elementary school. firstname.lastname@example.com
I have been sewing for a very long time and have sewn many quilts, etc but I must say, the most favorite thing or things that I have ever sewn were my daughter's wedding dress, the bridemaids dresses and my grandson's suit just last summer. Nothing will ever top that. The only thing that will ever equal that will be to sew my other daughter's dress :) (made me cry to see her and my other daughter was maid of honor)ReplyDelete
Congratulations and many more!!!!

when my boys were little I sewed. Nothing fancy. As they left home I stopped sewing UNTIL I started looking online What you share with us has encouraged me to really start sewing again, quilts for my gdaughters and g sonsReplyDelete
I've been sewing a long time, my grandmother taught me. I've only been sewing quilts for a year or so (my Auntie is teaching me.) Lately I'm also sewing for the home, placematts, purses, etc.ReplyDelete
How generous of you to share your anniversary with us! Love, love this line. And I think my most favorite sewing creation is the memory quilt I did of our beloved Bichon - was a birthday gift for his "daddy" - and it's just wonderful! Happy Anniversary and many thanks!ReplyDelete

Thanks for the chance to win! I'm currently working on my first donation quilt. Almost finished with that pesky binding...ReplyDelete
Congratulations! You make such beautiful things!ReplyDelete
I have been sewing since I was a girl, but I'd say more seriously for about 4 years. I love it and I wish the days were longer so I could fit in all the things I want to do...
Wow, these fabrics just make me want to sew! I can see why you are always inspired. Favorite project...probably a batik quilt, it's colors remind me of sunshine and it's quilted in beautiful sunbursts.ReplyDelete
Happy Anniversary! Tilly is stunning; I would love to make something with this fabric. I've been sewing since last fall - it's changed my life too -- and blogging about it at fabricmutt.blogspot.com since the end of December. What a fun new world has opened up through this wonderful hobby!ReplyDelete
Don't blog, but I love to sew. I've been sewing for around 40 yrs. I stopped for awhile, but in the last two years have really made up for lost time. I love this fabric collection! Not usually colors I would pick, but I really like them a lot! I can picture a pillow or table runner made out of these. Thanks for the chance! And Happy 2nd Anniversary to you!

Missions have faith in their cats
They're the pros exterminating the vermin that creep past the perimeter of Mission Espada on the South Side.
Cloaked in stealth and silence, they corner mice, snatch snakes from kitchen cupboards and bat away scorpions.
They aren't bonded or insured, but their skill for stalking prey speaks for itself.
The protectors of the 18th-century mission are two large cats — Dominic and Moses — and they're on a mission from God to keep the holy spaces free of pests.
They're the pets of Brother Jerome Wolnik, 65, a Franciscan missionary and gardener who tends to the plush greenery and flowers that bloom around the grounds not far from the San Antonio River.
When he drives through the gates from Mission San José, where he lives, the mousers report for duty.
"These guys take care of everything," Wolnik said. "Moses has the red collar. Dominic has the blue, and he says the rosary every day."
Wolnik's order was founded by St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment, so it's natural for the cats to coexist peacefully with the church.
In recent months, the mousers have been busy. Wolnik said heavy machinery clearing land around the San Antonio River as part of the $245.7 million Mission Reach restoration project has driven snakes, scorpions, rats and lizards from the riverbanks and toward the mission looking for shelter.
There was a time centuries ago when cats were linked with witchcraft and paganism, beliefs that almost led to their extinction. But over time, parishes began taking them into cathedrals and churches to control rodents.
Wolnik joked that the care for the cats, including vaccinations and sterilizations, is budgeted under rodent control.
He said the two are healthy and hearty because they do their job so well. When Wolnik drives through the gate at 5:30 a.m., they jump on the hood of his pickup, leaving a trail of paw prints, meowing to be fed.
More Information
San Antonio River Improvements Project
Mission San Francisco de la Espada
Wolnik has had cats at the mission since 1995, when he found a snake coiled in a kitchen corner.
"I said no way," he said. "That's it, I got a cat."
He's had Dominic since he was born in the pantry 13 years ago. Wolnik named the white, black-spotted cat after the Dominican Order, whose followers wear black hoods and white habits.
Three years ago, on the wheel well of a pickup at a Walgreens parking lot, he found Moses — a little white and orange fuzzball barely the size of a blackboard eraser.
It was Aug. 6, on the day of the Feast of the Transfiguration that celebrates when Moses and Elijah appeared with Jesus on Mount Tabor.
"It was either Elijah or Moses, and the vet couldn't spell Elijah," Wolnik said of naming Dominic's apprentice. "So we named him Moses."
Leslie Price, business manager of the mission, said Wolnik babies his cats like a proud parent.
"He's one of a kind," Price said. "They know who their daddy is."
She said the friary is like a household where everyone shares everything, including feeding the cats. There have been several other cats who tried to make the mission their home, but the lead mouser didn't accept them.
"Dominic takes one look (at them) and says, 'There's the river. You can do your own fishing, and it's better for you to stay on the other side,'" Wolnik said.
So far, Moses is the only cat Dominic has tutored in his catechism.
Wolnik said the cats have become an attraction at the mission, spawning their own fan base.
Increasingly, tourists are snapping pictures of the pair as much as they do the rustic property. When children approach the pair, Wolnik said Moses will roll on his back for a belly rub, as if to say, "Here I am, Lord. I come to do your will."
Wolnik said Dominic is the opposite; rubs aren't his thing.
St. Francis medals dangle from the collars of both cats, which are big as raccoons. They're outdoor cats and only come inside on the coldest nights. When it rains, they seek cover under the arches of the iconic mission bell tower.
"They like the perching element," Wolnik said.
Cats aren't unique to just Mission Espada. Nine cats call Mission San Juan home.
Since he arrived 14 years ago, Father Jim Galvin, pastor of Mission San Juan, has had cats to control rodents. He has three inside felines — Chico, 14; Cappuccino, 7; and 18-month-old Lily, who he found abandoned while making a sick call — and six outside cats that appear like a flash mob whenever he opens a bag of food.
He's closest to Chico, who trails him like a dog when he strolls through the woods near the riverbanks.
Sometimes at dusk, while walking and reflecting, he'll hear wild pigs rustle in the brush. And in a rare moment, an armadillo will waddle into view.
"For me, God is everywhere," Galvin said. "One of the nicest places is in the evening, surrounded by nature and the cat jumps and runs among the flies."
Father David Garcia, director of the Old Spanish Missions, is familiar with the cats of the missions.
Garcia said it makes sense that the cats are part of the missions, not only to protect, but also add to the tranquility.
"We've tried to make the missions sacred places of prayer and reflection," Garcia said. "The relationship (Galvin and Wolnik) have with the cats is a part of their peacefulness; the cats help them to connect them to nature. I kind of feel the cats provide a sense of serenity."
Animal Care Services spokeswoman Lisa Norwood said the missions are setting an example for the community.
"The visitors probably have a more enjoyable experience without the vermin that would probably be there if the cats weren't there," Norwood said. "They're stepping up, allowing these cats to be cats and providing them with a loving home."

Travel Logo Templates
We have a collection of 18 designs in this area!
If you've never setup a website as a shrine to the perfect vacation, you ought to try it sometime. If you're setting up a way to show off all of the beautiful photos from your dream vacation, or showcase the photos your clients have sent you from their vacations, booked through you, you need a starting point. You've got better things to do than design a website, such as planning your next vacation!
Our travel logo templates are the very basic of corporate design. They are a single pre-made logo that can be edited with Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, or Corel Draw. The main difference between a regular logo and our logo templates is that our logo templates are developed to reflect the main ida of the industry, not the particular company. To make the logo work for your company's theme you will need to customize the template by changing the name and colors, etc. That is why you will have full access to the source files so that you can make the precise changes you need. All travel logo templates under this area are unique which means they have not been purchased by any other customers. If you pay for the unique version they will be removed from the marketplace and will no longer be for sale, otherwise they will be moved to our regular logo template section after you purchase.

yes, Social media marketing plays very important role in promoting your website. Google may not consider the post you update on facebook, but this gets traffic to your website and gets popularity to your website. This is one of the best way to reach more people.

Yes, the only thing that compares in importance to social media, in my opinion, is SEO. Just don't put all your eggs in one basket. I had a client practically go under because they relied only on Facebook. Unfortunately, the "Book of Faces" changed their algorithm and hardly any of their followers were seeing their posts. It was devastating.

Re: Is Social Media very important to make Brand?
I used to have the same question and then I have realized that Scoial Media is very important to make Brands. I have found this article. It said the priority goal on Instagram is to engage with current audiences while also growing your following. Many brands are leveraging branded hashtags, but not all of them are using it in the right way. Always be up-to-date and make your photos more interesting and engaging only satisfy the first requirement. Furthermore, it is extremely important to make your brand easier to find among thousands viral via hashtags. So how to market more attractive on Instagram – How to use Instagram Hashtags to make people love your brand?

Of course, the answer is a big yes. These day when nearly 2,000 million active people using social media across the world, taking these platforms for granted may be a wrong choice for online businesses. Each post goes through thousands of online viewers, which can turn into great opportunity. All of the leading platforms like Facebook, Tweeter, Pinterest, etc., support online businesses while helping them to improve ranking on search engines. Take the power of social media into a Magento mobile app and see the magic happening.

For branding, your product/services need to be present everywhere on the internet and social media is a rich platform to drive genuine traffic.
The more number of shares/likes/comments you get, it shows you are providing some valuable content to the users and they are engaging with it. And, Google considers posts with the higher number of shares or views.

I believe that social networks are very good sites for advertising. My friend sells clothes of his design through instagram. Of course, he had to spend time and money to get active Instagram followers[, but he is now making good profits. Many people don't have an online store, but successfully trade goods through social networks. I believe that promoting an account on a social network is easier than a website. Moreover, now there are special services for this, which also give a guarantee for their work.

Obviously answer is Yes. In personally social media become's an unavoidable part of everyone's daily life so it paves a new and trendy way to business promoters. Facebook, Twitter is the best platform to reach a new customer.

I've been working on my website creation. I was lucky to get a great collection of stock images on
and I can't wait to add them to my site as I think that web design is one of the most important things to attract customers. When I finish, I'm going to start promoting my site using social media. In my opinion, this is the easiest and the cheapest way for promotion.

If you're having trouble watching Prime Video on your TV, here are some solutions that may help.
Here are some things to try:
Problems with your internet connection or low bandwidth can cause streaming issues unrelated to the Prime Video service.
Restarting your device, Internet modem, and router can resolve many intermittent connectivity issues.
Are there many other devices connected to the same internet network you're using?
Temporarily pause activities like file downloading, online gaming, and video streaming on other devices connected to your network. These activities can impact your connection speed and streaming quality.
Check to see if there are any firmware updates available for your device.
Device manufacturers regularly release firmware updates you can download to your device over an active internet connection.
Most devices also feature manual steps for firmware updates in the "Settings" menu. The user manual for your device generally includes information about accessing and managing firmware settings, as well.
For more information for TVs and game consoles, go to About Updating Your Device Firmware.
For more information on Fire TV, go to Device Software Updates.
If your connection speed is much slower than usual, we recommend contacting your ISP for additional help.
HDCP works specifically to prevent unauthorized duplication of High Definition (HD) and Ultra High Definition (UHD) audio and video content. Streaming media players and devices or hardware connected to your device use HDCP.
Prime Video automatically detects whether your connected devices and setup meet these requirements. If not, a notification typically displays onscreen to let you know. The video also switches to a format your device can support (for example, HD instead of UHD or SD instead of HD).

To make it clear right away: There is no "complete matriarchal people" known today. Every so called matriarchal society lost more or less of their typical life style under patriarchal influence; so this description will be "fictional" and somewhat theoretical. Even though it matches reality, the characteristics listed below cannot be experienced by travelling to one ethnical community or tribe.
The means of production are commonly owned and set of rules prevent the accumulation of possessions or power. Compared to socialist or communist systems they are characterized by the absence of a centralised administration and ruling authority. Decisions concerning every area of life are made by consensus including all genders and generations.
Although most anthropologists associate the term Matriarchy with the work of J.J. Bachofen or L.H. Morgan, it was used for the first time by E.B. Taylor (1896) in an article with the title "The Matriarchal Family system".
Bachofen used the term "Gynaikokratie" (from Greek. gyne "woman" and kratos "to rule, prevail") in the sub-title of its German issue of "Mother Right" (Das Mutterrecht - eine Untersuchung über die Gynaikokratie der alten Welt nach ihrer religiösen und rechtlichen Natur, 1861). [3] In the English edition this was translated however falsely with "matriarchy".
When internationally the first ethnologists and scholars of matriarchal studies began to learn about peoples who showed matrilocality and matrilineage they drew falsely the conclusion that mothers are rulers, on the one hand because of the translation error, and in addition, in similarity to their own patriarchal culture. The modern studies of matriarchy corrected this misunderstanding in the German-speaking countries in the second half of the 20. Century and investigates this field since then. In the international science discourse the term matriarchy is maintained, although sometimes it is misconstrued as "mother's rule" or "woman's rule"; both never existed in accordance to today's state of research. Today Matriarchy is used in the sense of "motherly beginning" as a beginning of a cycle, because these societies are coined by cyclic thinking unlike linear.
Replacements as gylanic, matrilinear, matrilocal, matrifocal, egalitarian etc. instead of matriarchal are problematic, because
It is important to fill and correctly use the term Matriarchy with error free and unmistakable contents.
In a further contribution I will write in more detail about the development of patriarchy, but to start with here are the first details of the theory. The Saharasia-Theses [4] is valid in the discourse of Matriarchal studies because no signs of violence and warlike activities are evident during pre-patriarchal times (see also discussion of DeMeo/Keeler ) and matriarchal lifestyles can be taken as given. University faculties such as archaeology, ethnology and anthropology have so far not been able to refute this.
Approx. 5000 B.C.E. the displacement of matriarchal societies began (see Marija Gimbutas' Kurganculture [5]) starting in the Middle East. In connection with this the monotheistic world religions developed (i.e. Sumer, Old-Egypt, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism) which are spreading slowly. The original ethnic and kinship group religions were either retained by groups who lived matriarchally, as for example the Northamerican Iroquois or the new religions were integrated into the present traditions.(i.e. the Korean Shamanism integrated Confucianism).
Compared to nation states with their bureaucratic centralized structures egalitarian or societies free of domination possess a number of very intelligent conventions which both serve to deal with conflict and deal with political and economic inequalities should they arise. They were called 'adjusted anarchy', or stabilized domination-free systems by Max Weber[6].
Organizing festivals and games, especially gambling, have a great importance in the process of balancing out any inequalities [7]. In ethnographic literature this point of minimizing differences in possessions is often stressed. It has a similar distribution effects as organizing festivals have. (The contribution of differnet types of games to maintaining the equilibrium within a group has hardly been analysed in a systematic way. For example the conflict reducing potential of the different ritualised Indian ball games, i.e. hockey played by the South-American Mapuche-Huilliche or the North-American Lacrosse [8].)
Especially the example of Juchtán, Mexiko portrays the "economy of festivals" as scientifically documented by ethnologist and sociologist Bennholdt-Thomson [9]. These festivals enable the constant distribution of possessions and monetary wealth. Rich traders are expected to participate actively by taking responsibility of Velas (festivals) and by visiting those others have directed. In this way their wealth is circulated back into the local economy and in turn the community honours them for what they do. The festivals also have a great influence on the social relationships. It creates a constant net of reciprocal support which generates a social community which in turn ensures the economic existence of that community.
Another method which appeared in the meantime to level off economic inequality and to prevent the authority of leaders from decaying into dominance is the principle of the "seperation of halves" (i.e. with the Iroquois and Horons). Female chiefs or clan-leaders would serve together with their male counterparts in the same position, which constituted the common principle of doubling up of offices. As Henry Lewis Morgan stated for the Iroquois [10] what resulted from this principle is a kind "enforced" communication and frequent change of office of leadership.
And finally there is the type of decision making, house free of domination, called egalitarian consensus democracy. The equilibrium of matriarchal societies is constantly renewed by consensues decision making, which aim is to come to unanimity.
A counsel made up of men and women excluding nobody make up the smallest unit of the society, the clan house. Each decision is made after thorough discussion by consensus. Now the delegates of each house meet on the level of the village to discuss the issues which arose in the houses, with the aim of finding consensus again. Likewise it goes on to the level of the tribe, till the whole nation is in agreement.
It is important to note, delegates do not represent their personal opinion, but only represent the interests of the community which sent them, and in any unclear situation they have to go back to their group to receive new instructions. This prevents political power from mounting up. This system is thanks to its stability and strengths able to create functioning large assemblies with several hundred thousands of individuals without centralized institutions.
It is easier to achieve majority rule than create consensus. The parties hereto are aware of this, but they refuse the line of least resistance for the following reasons: The opinion of the majority is not sufficient basis for making a decision, because the minority is in this process excluded from expressing their will in the decision.
To express it in a different way, the principle of majority representation denies the minority representation in any given decision, but representation is a basic human right in matriarchal societies. It is believed that continuous non-representation is creating a feeling of dissatisfaction which in turn threatens the balance of the whole community [11].
Spiritual life and accompanying rituals of matriarchal societies are incomparable to patriarchal religions such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam or Buddhism. Everybody, women, men, children of all ages, as well as the older generation, even the ancestors all take part in the rituals, they are carried out by regular members of the community, and there are no clerics, no laity. Besides such rituals where everyone is involved in, like mourning rituals, there are also special rituals such as adolescent initiation which are carried out by the elders, or the healing ceremonies carried out by male or female shamans or medicine men, or – women. They also perform special rituals for house building, and Wise Women are performing special birthing and naming rituals [12].
In matriarchal societies rituals are a community activity, a creative process, not to be compared with the ceremonies carried out in Western Churches. Everybody involved is occupied in preparing the details and in the carrying out of the actual ritual to meet the specific need which the ritual is to serve. It is to create a special kind of energy, in which all participants partake and enables the raising of consciousness to experience the transformation which brings healing. [13]
The aim of all ritual is the encounter between humans and the other-world, non-ancestor spirits and ancestors and to find a connection for the individual's life purpose. In the constant repetition of the rituals the powers which have brought humans to this world are continuously intensified.
Such rituals mirror the agility of human imagination (not the opposing power of stagnation and solidification) and therefore are never exactly the same. What is important to note at this point is the fact that shamans and medicine men and women of matriarchal societies are not only learning to use established traditions (such as trance- and healing rituals) during their decade-long training but they also have the task to integrate new and unknown phenomena, for the use and positive influence of the community. This explains why indigenous people often belong "officially" to Islam (i.e. the Minangkabau of Sumatra) or Christianity (many African tribes or the South-American descendants of the Mayans). Nevertheless they did not give up their traditional cultures, unless they were actually forced by patriarchal colonists, missionaries or invaders.
These shamanistic abilities enable matriarchal societies to keep abreast with current developments, react flexible in respect to political issues and maintain equilibrium for their community. In the spiritual world view of these indigenous groups ritual, community and the healing arts are closely connected, which in turn are indivisible from the natural world. Each member of the community has a great interest to live in such a way as to come into harmony with the powers of nature on a continuous basis.
Ancient matriarchal societies such as the Minoan Culture of Crete or the indigenous groups of the Old Europeans cultures portrayed by archeologist Marija Gimbutas are best known. Ethnologists and cultural sociologists know of current matriarchal cultures all over the world, even though these cultures have lost some of their traditions through colonial domination, missionary influences and interaction with bordering nations and are not necessarily designated with the term "matriarchal".
Here are three examples:
The Minangkabau of Sumatra is the largest matriarchal nation, and they have maintained their "Adat", a matriarchal set of rules for selfgovernment. There are three Million people who belong to the Minangkabau who live according to the ancient "Adat" in all the major cities of Sumatra and Indonesia. They are active in trade, administration, economy, politics and culture and are regarded in Indonesia as a people of a high level of education, culture, cosmopoliticalism and great economic power. The American anthropologist Peggy Reeves Sanday has lived many years among the Minangkabau and documented their way of live outstandingly [14].
The linguist Carlos Lenkersdorf researched the Tojolabalians in great depth, a Mayan group which lives in Ciapas [15]. Their language has no objects, there are only subjects [16]. When everything, humans, animals, plants and objects of nature and culture are seen as subjects, this is a mirror of the common egalitarian way of life. It portraits clearly the egalitarian lifestyle of these people and their rejection of domination.
The Goajiro-Arawak of Columbia and Venezuela are with 60.000 people the largest surviving tribe of South America. The economic basis of each kinship group is cattle, it is commonly owned and cared for. The men tend to the animals the women milk them and produce cheese and prepare the meat. Theaft of animals and the rape of a woman are comparable in severity and punished severely, because the whole group feels offended by it, as a result these offences are not committed within the kinship group. The fathers line is known, but does not have any importance. The children live with the mother to begin with, later a sister of the mother cares for the girls and a brother for the sons [17]. They are thus raised in the maternal clan. Even though the Arawak-culture of the Goajiro has been confronted by several threats which has brought about different changes to their culture, the matriarchal ancestry is still clearly visible.

European Fisheries Law Undergoes Review
Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Commissioner Joe Borg announced a laundry list of flaws with the European Union's Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) in a statement released last week. "In its current form, the CFP does not encourage responsible behavior by either fishermen or politicians," Borg said.
In response, the Commission authorized an immediate review of its ten-year policy. The current fisheries policy has been in effect since 2002.
A reassessment of Europe's fishing regulations could have sweeping implications for dwindling fish populations. About two-thirds of Europe's fisheries are estimated to be exploited at a rate that exceeds sustainable levels, according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization [PDF].
The Commission is expected to reduce the European fishing fleet as one measure to address the exploited fish stocks. Borg said the current number of vessels can catch between two and three times the government-authorized, maximum sustainable yield.
European countries have been shrinking their fleet capacity since the 2002 policy required a "stable and enduring balance" between capacity and resources. Fleet capacity is based on a vessel's size (tonnage) and power (kilo-watts). Between 2003 and 2005, size was reduced about 6 percent, and power decreased about 7 percent, according to a World Wildlife Fund analysis [PDF].
The fisheries policy has been hotly debated by the fishing industry and environmentalists since its inception. But recently, a series of uncomplimentary news reports have put the policy under heightened scrutiny.An independent review panel for the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas earlier this month described regulation of bluefin tuna fisheries as "an international disgrace." The review noted that the 2007 catch for the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea fisheries was estimated at 60,000 tons - more than double the legal limit and four times the amount that scientists recommend, according to environmental groups who obtained early access to the report.
In August, a British fishing vessel was caught on film dumping more than 5.5 tons of cod, which amounted to 80 percent of its catch. EU quotas limit the amount of fish that ships can bring back to port, but vessels are not limited on the amount they can catch. The unfortunate result is that 40-60 percent of all fish caught by trawlers in the North Sea are discarded, the EU estimates.
Several environmentalists and fisheries researchers have advocated more dramatic policy changes than what the Commission has so far suggested. For instance, more marine protected areas are being requested. Researchers suggest that at least 20-30 percent of the world's ocean habitats be included in a network of marine reserves - the current level is estimated at 1 percent - to ensure long-term protection of exploited fish stocks, according to the 2007 Worldwatch report Oceans in Peril.
A second alternative approach that has recently gained popularity and scientific support is known as an individual transferable quota (ITQ). Instead of fishermen competing against each other to obtain the greatest share of the total allowable catch set by government scientists each year, individual fishermen are provided a share of the catch, which eliminates the incentive to overfish. Independent observers, and sometimes cameras, ensure that when the harvest is low, everyone brings in a low catch, and when the harvest is high, their catch subsequently increases.
"By doing this, it provides fishermen an incentive to take a long-term view into account. Essentially they make an investment in their future," said Chris Costello, the lead author of a study published in the journal Science last week that found that ITQs implemented in Alaska, Iceland, New Zealand, and Australia reduced the chance of fisheries collapse by 13.7 percent.
Unsustainable management of fisheries is not just a problem in Europe. Increased seafood consumption and more efficient fishing technologies have led to the depletion of fish stocks globally in recent years. If current trends continue, the world's fish stocks risk collapse by 2048, according to a 2006 study in the journal Science.
"Every fishery in the world could benefit from some form of incentive-based management system," said Costello, a resources economics professor at University of California in Santa Barbra. "The critical feature is to design those incentive-based schemes for the biology of the species, the culture of the communities, and the economies of the fisheries."
While the number of ITQs remains low - about 1 percent of global fisheries - Costello predicts they will double in number within the next ten years. Some European fisheries have already switched to the incentive-based system, such as a few small fisheries in the Netherlands.
