Valentine blocks!
I pieced the valentines blocks for the teacher-gift bags I’m hoping to make tomorrow. I actually took a long nap, so I have energy to keep going, but I wanna photograph the steps, so I have to wait till tomorrow. But I got the blocks done, so I’m counting it a a done project. I […]
Valentines motivation
As a pregnant, SAHM of 2 littles, I’m not having much energy to sew at night these days… But I really want to make up some valentines bags for our preschool teachers… I cut these strips this morning, and am hoping that by posting these this morning, I’ll feel obliged to whip up some pieced/quilted […]
