My BOOK PROJECT for 2025
Like many of you, I've been sewing since grammar school, made most of my clothes in high school, and have been quilting for the last 25 years.
When I began quilting, I documented the quilts I created,
made an extra block as a keepsake, and kept a sketch of each label.
My plan was to create a memory book one day.
Then, we lost everything in a 2020 wildfire. -->
