Child’s Apron
This is just the cutest darn apron! Made from muslin and embroidered with cross stitches in reds, greens, pinks. Notice the details? The small pocket and grass green rick rack trim.

I’m so happy that it has stopped raining! At least, for awhile. Look what Mike was up to. Well, somebody has to do it.
I finished up a customer quilt this morning. I loved how it turned out. I used a “contemporary” Baptist fan pattern on it. Contemporary because the lines do not meet. Notice the 1/4 [...]
