I became slightly obsessed with Tilda fabric a couple of years ago. Now I have quite the stash and I want/need to make something with it! I'm looking for great Tilda fabric pattern ideas, so if you have any great patterns that would enhance this beautiful fabric, please leave a comment below! 😊❤️

Tuesday Afternoons are the BEST
Every Tuesday afternoon my friend Becky hosts a small stitching group at her home. We call ourselves the Needle Keepers. I must say, I look forward to this time SO MUCH. It's a relaxing time just to stitch with friends and be inspired by their work 😊
Check out Rena's beautiful Sashiko table runner above and Nancy's amazing Trinket quilt below, in which she learned to foundation paper piece, hand appliqué AND she machine quilted it herself!!
Bravo ladies!! 👏❤️
This cute wall hanging was made by Rena for her little grandson 😊
On most Tuesdays we also get to play with our cute "granddog". She's so well behaved and fun. 🥰
