Welcome!



Welcome new visitors & friends! It's so great to see the blog is getting some traffic again. Whether you are new to applique, the Jane Stickle quilt (Dear Jane), are a fan of 30s reproduction fabrics, a modern quilter, a combination, or just browsing, I'm so glad you're here! 

I've been teaching, finishing two master's degrees, have changed jobs a couple times, and am considering going for a third master's. I've also had several surgeries on my wrists and forearms, making some of my quilting and embroidery challenging - but I'm determined to get back to my piecing and applique soon. While I've been on the mend, I have purchased several new 30s reproductions for the ever growing collection and several new cabinets to house them in. 

My daughter and I have been collecting Strawberry Shortcake vintage goodies for years and added the new re-releases from France, thanks to some very kind online friends. You'll note that Strawberry has a sewing machine nook in the Berry Happy Home. It's behind the Brazilian brunette version in the picture on the left of the screen. While the pretend sewing machine makes me happy, my zen space, the real sewing room has been calling. I do hope that means once I get back to it, I can complete my Dear Jane between projects (and unfortunately, laundry!).

Thank you for taking the time to check in! 

Wishing you the very best, 
Heather
