Watch my life unravel...
|
Here’s some of the stuff we’ve been making lately. This is the flannel quilt GC made for his son. He just finished it last week. It’s the softest, biggest, coziest quilt yet. This is my mod sampler quilt. It’s got kind of a yellowish hue in the photo, but in real life it’s not yellowish at all.

And, since then, we’ve started and not finished quite a few […] There’s nothing I like more than an addictive hobby. I love the intensity of obsession. I love that all-encompassing, can’t-quite-get-enough feeling. I love waking up and falling asleep thinking about it.
