If you’re anything like me, the actual sewing for the holidays doesn’t usually start until after Thanksgiving.

The adage of making lemonade out of the lemons life gives you is just one of the many I’ve heard over the last few weeks. When one door closes another one opens … that’s another feel-good phrase. And honestly, they are helpful in this time crisis, especially when I hear it from others. I know

The International Quilt Festival is back after a long hiatus and I’m excited to get the chance to get back out on the road and chat with quilters and sewists in-person again. (I’ll be teaching the Ellie Elephant–join me?) Because the event inside and the coronavirus has done a doozy on Texas over the last

After a nice weekend in southern Kansas, we made our way up to Kansas City on Sunday afternoon. I knew it was going to be a special Sew Together Tuesday for a couple of reasons: we were using my friend Sam Hunter’s “Bloomin’ Too” pattern and we were visiting a brand new shop: KC Maker
