This month I have the privilege of being the featured designer over at Cotton Cuts. This means that Cotton Cuts subscribers will get a little card with my smiling face on it this month and get to choose one of four of my favorite patterns to add to their subscription this month!

Here is her gorgeous wall hanging:
