Hello and happy Thursday! One of my goals for this week was to do a little sorting and organizing in my sewing room: the goal was to go through three project boxes and sort them into easily usable scraps.

Hello and happy Monday! I finally got around to putting away all of my Americana quilts that I decorate with from Memorial Day through Labor Day this weekend. I really have a lot of quilts and quilted home decor items that I use throughout the summer, so things always look a little bare when I change things up in the fall.
