WIP’s and more

10 / 21 / 2010 / 21 / 20

4 / 25 / 18

The Quilter’s Planner block for this month was so much fun, and I’m beginning to love them more when they’re all grouped together.  Remember,… Read More

August UFO and a new kitten

8 / 6 / 16

Now that August is here, it feels like summer is winding down, and we’re beginning to think about the new school year and to make plans for fall.  I’m still trying to wrap my brain around the week ahead of me, let alone what’s coming next month, next season and next year.

Now that it’s been gifted, I can show you the do Now that it’s been gifted, I can show you the doll tent I made for my granddaughter, Amelia.  It fits a 14” doll (or various stuffed animals). The pattern is from @wonderful_wellies Etsy shop and it came together perfectly. The instructions are very easy to follow.
