2 new Block of the Months now available!

Nothing like a strong, looming deadline like Quiltcon over my head to make the first quarter of 2025 super productive! Met so many folks, and had so many fun chats!

One of the reasons I wanted to start blogging again was a simple, but also complex. I was observing something online. Scrolling through Instagram, I was finding people whose work I liked a lot. I’d click on their profile to go to their website, only to find that it often said “coming soon” or that it was very outdated.

We could all use incentive to give and receive some happy mail!

New in the shop are beautiful blank inside cards from artist Neicy Frey, in Spokane, Washington. I have some pieces of Neicy’s work in our home, I’m a huge fan! When I saw that she was now carrying cards, I loved the idea of having my favorites in the shop.
