Introducing the newest Around the Bobbin pattern, Clearly Organized! Not long ago, although pre-pandemic so it feels like ancient history, but anyway, in 2019 I helped my parents move closer to us. That meant meeting their basement head-on. An entire unfinished basement overflowing with stuff, including all the keepsakes, old stuff no longer used, treasured […]

These trivets look especially nice […]

Speakeasy blog hop fun!
When you think of a speakeasy, you might conjure up an image of a hidden room, accessible by password, in the basement in corner of a large city, with dark rich tones and whispered conversation below ground. Well, at least that’s what comes to mind for me! This Speakeasy happens to be a fabric collection, […]
