The Art of Homemaking: Giving Comfort and Joy

I was reminded last week that while we all strive for "the perfect holiday" season that things aren't always so. By the end of last week I had learned of three friends who in two days lost family members in very unexpected tragedies and my heart was so sad for them.

Santa Gnome and Christmas Tree Paper Pieced Quilt Blocks

If you are following along with us on our Instagram Stories you will know that I have been doing quite a bit of English paper piecing and also Foundational Paper Piecing, which has been a fun adventure.

Shine Bright Star Quilt

I am freaking about today's post. When we asked Andy from A Bright Corner to take part in our fabric tour I was thrilled when she said yes.  She does incredible work and so I knew that what ever she created would be amazing...but...what she did exceeded what I ever expected. She created what I had hoped for in my minds eye when we designed this fabric....something beautiful for someone beautiful. It's silly really...for me to be sitting here crying while reading her post...it's ... View the Post
