It's a bazillion degrees out today (37C/99F in technical parlance) so I'm doing things that involve staying within a one metre radius of the air conditioner. Since I'm about to start Month 5 of the Portage Lake BOM, I figured I should get my act together

As I’ve been putting the final touches on my Reflections project, the centre has been bugging me. Too much bulk. Too many seams. It’s my own design, so I know exactly who is to blame. A solution to my problem presented itself in Anna Maria Horner's Mod Co

Live. Laugh. Love. Some may call the sentiment trite, but when times are dark, all you can do is put one foot in front of the other, take a deep breath, and keep moving forward. Live every moment. Laugh at every opportunity. Love hard. #Love from Sandy Ge

Summer is here, so I figured it was time to sort through my pile of 3 yd cuts and get busy washing yardage for this year’s shirts. In this year’s pile, we have Hello Bear Voile from @goinghometoroost, Rolled Paper in GREEN (glorious green!) from #kaffefas
