We got to watch the […]

News From the Ranch, Episode 1640

If you’ve visited me in the past week, but you’ve been here before, you may have noticed that my website got a bit of a new look! I was tired of the old colors and the tiny print, so I had the folks at Maye Create Design fix me all up with new colors and […]

Modern Heritage Quilts

It seems like eons ago that I pieced a couple of quilt tops for Amy Ellis for her new book. It’s excruciating to wait for all the work you’ve done to finally show up in print. But it’s all worth it in the end when you get to hold the fruits of your labor in […]
