On Perspective

Fabric & quilt designed by Jeanie Sumrall-Ajero Hoffman Fabrics I've been friends with, the quilter for, and an admirer of Jeanie Sumrall-Ajero's for years, since we met on the set of Quilting Arts TV.

Letting Go in such a good way

It was hard in some ways to make those decisions however once I started it got easier. I found that I was less and less attached to… Continue reading Letting Go in such a good way

Stitchy Freedom

I'm a regular reader of Seth Godin's blog. Seth offers daily, pithy words of wisdom.
