Dear Santa,
We’ve been ever such nice quilters this year! Remember when we got started on quilting projects and then could have abandoned them in favor of newer, better projects? Well, we didn’t! (OK, we didn’t always. But we must have finished a solid 10% of the projects we started! [...]

Happy Quiltaversary To Us!
It was exactly a year ago today that we were bitten by the quilting bug, thanks to a quick trip to Pennington Quilt Works to buy a charm pack for Boomer for Christmas! What a fateful day! We’ve both been stunned by how fabulously fun quilting is. A year ago we were [...]

No, We Haven’t Forgotten About This Blog
We’ve been neglecting IPB Living lately, and for that we’re sorry. We’ve had a good reason though, we swear! Our fabulous friend Patty (in Dallas) was here for a full week of hockey games and photo excursions to New York City, Princeton, Philly, and Ocean Grove. Patty taught us a new trick [...]

It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane…
… It’s a post on IPB Living that’s not about gardening or cooking or quilting! Good grief! And what, pray tell, is so earth-shatteringly fabulous to warrant such a ground-breaking post? Why, my new alarm clock, of course!
Meet, the American Innovative Neverlate 7-Day Alarm Clock, aka the Nevernudelatetron 3000.
Isn’t she a beaut?
Here’s [...]

The Lengths We’ll Go For Christmas Joy
On Monday of this past week, we discovered the old-school tinsel decorations were up at our shopping center. On Wednesday, we saw the evergreen festoons being strung on the lampposts of Princeton. And on Thursday, I turned the final big corner of my workday commute and was met with a vision of the [...]

Restocking The Stash: On The Road With IPB Living, Chapter 4
Today was the big day — time to do a full-day, deep immersion trip to The Attic. We started things off with a side trip to this lovely, wee desert garden in North Scottsdale (as documented here), then made a quick stop at AJ’s, our old favorite grocery store, for some goodies to bring [...]

Restocking The Stash: On The Road With IPB Living, Chapter 2
Day Two of our stash-restocking adventure dawned bright and early, around 11:30 in the morning. Yes, that’s 2:30 in the afternoon back home, but back home can suck it. We hit the ground running, lolling around in our pajamas and stitching for about an hour, then headed out into the blinding desert heat [...]

After several weeks of giddy anticipation, we were in a full-on state of high-level pommerdoodling when this morning finally rolled around. All that stood between us and our carefully mapped [...]
