Farmer's Market

Cross Orchards is the BEST Farmer's Market!  Fun for the whole family!





And the fresh squeezed lemonade was SO delicious!  Mike and I split one, then had to go back for another one! 🥰

Selecting Fabric

Selecting fabric for these Boho Heart quilt blocks is a work in progress!  Some look great and as you can see in the last picture, some need more contrast!  Having fun making them 🥰

Truffle Duffle

A friend of mine asked me to quilt her Truffle Duffle quilt (a Sue Spargo pattern), so that's what I did today.  My goal was for the quilting not to show, because there is so much beautiful hand embroidered stitching on there I didn't want the quilting to be distracting. I think I accomplished that goal! 😅. I also learned that it's much easier to quilt a wool quilt if it has cotton batting vs. if it has wool batting.  I think the wool batting in a wool quilt is harder (for me) to quilt, and the quilting definitely shows up more.  I love her quilt, her embroidery stitching is AMAZING!! 👏😊❤️

Cross That off the List

I got to cross one thing off my list of unfinished projects 👏

I finished this Sashiko "Organic Table Runner", a kit that I got from Sue Spargo during the 12 Days of Christmas.  It was harder than I thought it would be but I like it!!
