I came across this super cute yet simple felt leaf garland. It was a must do, so I did it. For now…it graces ourContinue reading “A VERY Busy Week”

My Most Recent Acquisition
This is my machine. I got it about 15-17 years ago. A Bernina and she has treated me very well. A couple weeks ago, she got sick and it was about that time that I began to think of giving her a much needed retirement.

New quilting design
This is the current quilt on the machine. I finished one before church this evening.

Before the gift was given we had all the family membersContinue reading “Repairing the Old but Special”

They cloth children and adults, get put through storage, then come to be in plastic tubs to cut apart and begin the next stage of their life as a quilt. The most recent set was for a customer with 2 girls. SheContinue reading “Clothes to Quilts”
