Choosing Fabric For Your Next Quilt

How to choose fabrics for a quit

From time to time, I head up north for a few days and spend time with my family. I somehow always end up wandering around my mom’s quilt store, touching, feeling, and gazing at all her lovely fabrics and notions–it’s aways a much-need time of relaxation and inspiration for me.

The Monthly Mirror: A Perfect Porch

Small Porch Decor

I don’t know about you, but I grew up with the most amazing porch in the entire world—wooden porch swing, iced tea, and all!
