Hello Friends, I hope you are keeping well. Christmas is HERE – it truly is my favorite time of year.

Thank you to those of you who purchased Pine-ing for Christmas pattern over the weekend. I am most appreciative of your support. Pine-ing for Christmas is entirely scrap-friendly. The most tedious part would be to make the 3″ finished Ohio star units, but beyond that, everything else should be a breeze. Honestly, once you get used to ...

Hello Friends, today is our SECOND LAST check-in for Norfolk Sampler Quilt Along! Can you believe we are on our 10th month? Give yourself a pat on the shoulder if you are still sewing along! I am loving all the sightings on Instagram. There are actually quite a few finishes already. Just do a search on #norfolksampler2022, and see what quilters have done! And on that note, if you post on Instagram, ALWAYS add hashtag #norfolksampler2022 and #wendysheppard so that we can all oooh and aaah over your blocks!
