People Giving Back

Well, the cat's out of the bag. I was just given credit by The Joyful Heart Foundation for making and giving away my quilts to D.V. shelters. Here is the story if you would like to read it. For those of you who found my blog due to the story, here is a bit of an update. I have been giving my quilts to the local TESSA'S House. Lately I have been making mostly baby and lap sized quilts because the art quilts aren't as functional. I would like to make some more twin and full sized quilts, but money has been a bit tight, so I haven't been able to afford the materials for a larger quilt. In September, I donated a blue and yellow striped lap quilt.


I ended up having a very crazy October, so I ended up donating two in late November. Both have a kitty theme and fun textural fabrics.





My shop has been suffering from post-Christmas blues. My friends and family ended up getting purses, table runners, pot holders, lavender eye pillows and the like under the Christmas tree, which means I am out of stock on almost everything! This write up may just be all the encouragement I need to get a bunch of purses/quilts finished. As always, if you would like to special order a quilt, purse, costume, etc., please feel free to contact me!
