I spent the Summer on several projects-- not necessarily quilting. My kids have this knack of bring stuff home they don't want, but aren't ready to part with.... I'm not complaining... simply stating a fact... and they get it honestly...they're just like me.

Eric basically hasn't lived at home for about 5 years. Our home as just kind of been a pit-stop. I started cleaning out a set of drawers and a closet along with a couple of boxes of things that I decided he truly didn't want. I started seeing a pattern of old tee shirts in every spot. There were tees dating back to 2003. It was a pretty safe bet that he had no intention of ever wearing them again,but I just couldn't see myself throwing them out.

I gathered them together. Wash them. Dried them. Pressed them. And started cutting them up.

I was going to make a Tee-Shirt quilt for Eric. That way, he'd have the shirts forever. Then I started researching all the tips I could find on making the quilt. I read about several 'horror' stories and thought I may be in over my head. I folded everything neatly and laid them on my sewing counter in my sewing room.

A while back I told Eric my plan-- He thought it was a great idea. When I saw him over Labor Day, he even brought a box of tees to me and said - " These are really sacred -- I want them in the quilt. But be careful with them and if you don't use them -- I want them back..."

Great - I'm going to cut these babies up and be the story of scarring the kid's childhood memories.... I emailed a friend. They said, Use light fusible interfacing-- that's the trick. My Mom even said -- 'You can do it.'

So I tackled my first tee-shirt quilt:

Chelsey told me she had always thought they were ugly, but the black sashing strips set it off.

And while it may not be the most beautiful quilt in the world--- it IS full of memories... that High School Job,

a Varsity Wrestling Team, The College Fraternity, the first 5K run, a Rock Concert.....Close to ten years worth of memories for Eric...

As more porches sprout in front yards across the country, the homebuilders behind them meet the wants of today's buyers with a kind of architectural back to the future. Popping up in both renovations and new construction, it seems to be all about the new old-fashioned porch.

Porches are also larger these days, Minneapolis architect Paul Buum says, often spanning the full length of the front of the house. Depending on the style of home, many production builders also are making front porches standard and building them wider than a decade ago 8 to 10 feet wide instead of 4 to 6 feet.

"In both remodels and new construction, full lengths are nice for homes facing a street, and so are wider porches to accommodate tables, chairs or the old-fashioned porch swing," Buum says. He adds that wraparound porches with screened-in portions are popular in rural settings and on farmhouse-style homes.

Ensuring continuity with the architectural style of the rest of the home is a key design consideration. A porch should be consistent in detail and character with the rest of the house. "This is particularly true with front porches," Buum notes, "since it's the first introduction a person has to the home."

Buum outlines these porch design trends:

More color. Design elements emphasize color. "You see a lot of multicolor palettes today. You can have one siding or cladding color, another trim color and an accent color on window sashes," Buum says.

Bolder columns. Architectural columns often are on a larger scale for design or aesthetic purposes while enclosing a smaller structural column (typically 4x4 or 6x6 posts), as long as the columns are scaled appropriately to the home. "Columns can be round, squared or tapered and sit on the deck of the porch or a pier."

Durable materials. A well-designed porch typically will encompass the same exterior material as the rest of the home, such as stucco or brick, or synthetics such as fiber cement siding products.

Flooring. In addition to traditional pine or cedar floors on front porches, an increasingly popular choice is ipe, a Brazilian hardwood that is an incredibly strong wood, resistant to insects, rot and mold. "Ipe is moderately priced," Buum says. "Installation can be more expensive than other wood floors, because it's more time-consuming given the very dense wood, which requires pre-drilling."

Especially in remodels, Buum advises contractors to consider how views from the inside of the home will be altered from front windows and how an expanded porch could alter light flow inside the home. Buum also stresses that porches should be pitched to drain away from the home. He also recommends floor venting to prevent moisture buildup and the many accompanying problems that result. "It depends on the base of the porch, whether it's on piers or a continuous long low brick wall. In any case, we vent from underneath the porch, at the base or perimeter walls, to the sides or front so you allow air movement to keep the joist space ventilated and dry."
