This is the first Christmas / winter quilt top I’ve made. Every year when we pull out the Christmas decorations, I wish I had a Christmas quilt to pull out to throw on the couch. My children are still young, and the more special Christmas decor we set out for our home, the better. They love it.

During nap times last week, I sewed up a little fall inspired product line. It’s really the first time I’ve ever sewn for the seasons, and I had fun doing something different.… Read More
“Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the exercise and the day, from the view of the last smiles of the year upon the tawny leaves and withered hedges, and from repeating to herself some few of the thousand poetical descriptions extant of autumn–that season of peculiar and inexhaustible influence on the mind of… Read More
Mother’s Day is just a few days away, and I think the tradition of giving flowers for Mother’s Day is a beautiful one. We went back to Peter’s home town last weekend and had the opportunity to walk through an Amish nursery. When we got there, I told Peter I wished I had taken my… Read More
