Welcome to the first week of The Soul Mending Society's first annual meeting! This being our first year we don't have the agenda and details down to a science...but we hope you will join us as we work through starting to mend a few things in our sphere of influence....starting with ourselves. Mend Yourself: I've started this post approximately 8.6 million times. There is so much that I want to say...but the more I type the more I don't know if the message I want to share is coming ...

The Soul Mending Society
In May of 2012 Elizabeth and I announced a project that would become an annual tradition on our blog...Skirting the Issue. Since that time we have spent the entire month of each and every July sewing up skirts for girls in foster care to receive just in time for back to school. Over the years we have included other items and projects...bereavement gowns, pillowcases, and quilts to donate to various causes. However, just over a year ago we started working on a plan and setting things in ... View the Post

Chips and Salsa Quilt in Floral

I used one of my favorite lines that Melissa from Polka ... View the Post
Farmhouse Friends Quilt Pattern
I know I say this about almost every quilt pattern....but the Farmhouse Friends Quilt pattern is one of my new favorites. I have already made two of them and have one more cut out for a graduation gift. They are super fast and easy to make. And because the pattern is made from Half Square triangles the actual quilt pattern looks a lot more complicated than it actually is. I love quilts like that! The Farmhouse Friends Quilt Pattern is made for beginners to advanced quilters and is made to ... View the Post
