  • Here's the gosh-honest scoop!
    It certainly has been awhile since we last posted...like we fell off the hay rack! Not even! We have been very busy looking for a permanent location for our design studio and library! As this develops, look for more news here, some photos of finished quilts (ahem!), and wonderful new updates we hope you will like! --Erik

Erik's Tip

  • Cut a quick template from contrasting scrap fabric to make trimming a breeze! The fabric sticks to the piece you are trimming and makes it easy to turn the pieces on the cutting board!
