She is Determined
Working in a fabric shop is good and bad. Seeing all the fabric can be inspiring, but it sometimes must come home with me no matter how determined I am not to add to my stash. Today was such a day – we received new Alison Glass fabrics in the shop – stuff I’d been […]
Looks at the Bright Side
A girl with her giraffe toy with words to help her remember to bloom, trust, imagine and live. This girl looks for the good in all. She Looks at the bright side (6.5†x 14â€) I was stitching up these quilts as fast as my fingers would go. Moments like that help me to let […]

She Enjoys Each Day
Two tone trees and a girl and crown… wearing a pink polka dot dress. She enjoys each day (6.5†x 14â€) I hope you are enjoying your day too!
