Red and white quilts

I just took a quick inventory around my house and counted at least 12 quilts that still need to be blogged! Now that my busy summer season is winding down I have a lot more time for things like blogging and quilting! I’m pretty excited to be sewing again and I’ve missed it so much. […]
