(Please note that affiliate links have been used in this post.) A dear friend asked me about making some map pillows for their homeschool room. What a fun and stretching request!

(Please note that affiliate links have been included in this post) In April of 2017, we bought a new washer and dryer. I regret it to this day. We had an old school set, but we noticed something was leaving what appeared to be grease marks on a lot of our good clothing. I couldn’t… Read More
Isn’t this the most peaceful color palette ever? This simple quilt top has turned out so beautifully, and I can’t wait to finish it up. Once it’s finished, it will head to a sweet customer’s home.

I think I’m going to start a new quilt. 😉 This was the year for finishing all my projects before starting a new one, but my New Year’s Resolutions are slowly dwindling away. Don’t get me wrong.
