  • Crazy Quilting Class

    Several years ago prior to starting my business, I was asked to teach a crazy quilting class at one of my local quilt stores.  I’ll start by saying I really love taking classes and workshops but I don’t consider myself a teacher.  Needless to say I was very unsure I wanted to do this at…

  • Tree Motifs

    I am excited to share some tree motifs. They are tiny and all are stitched with Colour #18.  Colour 18 is a fabulous blend of various values of medium to dark GREENS.  It is by far the most popular colour I sell, so much so I end up dyeing it multiple times every year.  A…
