So excited to see Linda at the show! For those that know she is the sister of my dear friend Carolyn that we lost 3 years ago. So good to hug her neck! She looks great and we spent some time giggling over Carolyn! 🙏🏻

One of two quilts done! This is such a simple pattern but so effective for a layer cake when you don’t want to cut up the patterns!

Check out these art deco ruler racks that Jack is finishing up for the pigeon forge show!!

Walnut & Curly Maple Ruler Racks. I call them "Limited Edition" because they are a pain to make and I'm not sure I'll make this syle again. Hah!
