This week’s pick is House in the Country by The Drawn Thread. I love the little box houses in samplers and such. They remind me of what you think of as your “home” when you’re a little kid. Simple and beautiful on the outside, but ginourmous and full of sweet smelling on […]

The holidays are coming whether we are ready or not! Most of us probably have some gift shopping we’d like to get done. What better holiday gift than one that benefits the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America? You’re giving gifts already, right? Why not give a gift that not only gives to […]

We are planning a quilt block exchange / RoundRobin / virtual quilting bee thing on the message board. Looking for more participants to get this going in the new year. Figured it was best to wait until after the hectic holidays are all over and behind us and January’s boredom and cold weather […]
