Friends....

It began as an informal class for a tight group of friends...


I was honored that they would ask me to guide them in their quilt making.  And soon it was clear that this was more than just a little informal class.  
A group of friends, coming together to share their life and everyday experiences...and a little quilt making.
No pressure...we don't have a time limit. We can plan around a friend who moved away and now has to fly in for sewing sessions!
Life is good...stitching friends!
 
 pincushion pattern from the fabulous book....Patchwork Please!

    Charming little pin cushions. I'm sure your friends will love them. Friend-making is one of the best parts of quilt-making.
