And these friendly animals will bring a smile to any baby. We started with a panel, added a little fabric, minkee on the back, creating a soft and cuddly cover. We are happy to share lots of ideas. . . come on in!

Western Art




If you are needing a little inside project on these wintery days........how about a little western art. These are small wall hangings, and so dramatic using silhouettes. The technique is simple iron-on applique and a great way to try your hand at machine quilting. Choose from several different designs. In the meantime.........stay warm. Maybe the wind will wear out the snow!
