My sewing room is slowly getting organized, so hopefully by next week, I'll be able to get to all those lovely stitching projects that have been posted. Including those sweet ants.
I am a wife, mother of three adult daughters, retired school teacher and crafter. I love quilting, making jewelry, stitching, felting and scrapbooking but quilting is my BIG passion.
