A Sleuth Of Bears from Wedding Dress Blue

What do you call a group of bears?  A SLEUTH!!  What a fantastic word.

And what a great description for this finally-finished project that started with Sparkle Jane, but eventually involved all of us.

Fall Quilt Market 2019 - My Little Contributions from Creatin' in the Sticks

I will admit, I am a little (lot) bummed I am not at quilt market
this weekend.
