We want to be back together laughing, lunching, sewing and all three were had right here at the

Ever since it arrived in the shop, the silky satin has been sitting in the front room across from my cutting table. It’s been staring me down. I keep thinking about how badly I want to make a mid-century type baby quilt. In the mid 50s to 60s baby quilts were often whole cloth quilts. They were commercially made, but still very pretty. Most of them had little rose buds
