Kitten-sitting

Mom and Dad got two new kittens just before leaving on vacation which meant I was asked to kitten-sit!

Chesapeake

Zach and I enjoyed a fishing trip on the Chesapeake during one of my business trips. It was a beautiful weekend!

I completed this quilt for Melisa and Thom! It was given uncompleted as their wedding gift and finished two years later. I loved the process and especially my opportunity to use a long-arm quilt to quilt the top!

This blog began as a way to share some of my smaller, day to day moments with family and friends that I saw once or twice a year. Specifically, I wrote for my Grandma Rosemary. Few people in your life find even the smallest details of your day as remarkable as you do. She was one of those special people for me.

When she passed away in 2013, I struggled with my motivation to continue a lot of my crafts, quilting, and home-making hobbies that we both enjoyed. I've since found new inspiration in my beautiful nieces. Now, this blog continues as a tribute to my grandmother, in honor of her great grandchildren whose lives will continue to be touched by her in spirit, stories, and familial love.
