First: On Sunday, we had pool time and delicious steaks at my husband’s step-grandma’s house. At one point during the day, Andrew wanted to explore and the first room we walked into had this amazing.beautiful.gorgeous.fkjdkajd;lkjd coverlet on the bed. Hundreds of yo-yos lovingly handmade and pieced together. I was speechless!
A while later, I mustered up the words to ask about it. It was made by her (my husband’s step-grandmother) great-great grandma. Ah! The history! What an heirloom. It inspired me to maybe (possibly. someday) make my own. Who knows if mine will ever be as beeeautiful as this one, but a girl can hope, right?
Second: I bring you a new blog look! I know folks are more than likely viewing in a reader, so if you feel so inclined, hop on over and let me know what you think! I went header-less, this time. I’m just feeling it out. Thoughts?
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend!
Oh my gosh, I need to make one of those. That is so cool!
Seriously, that quilt is DIVINE. I would have stolen it then and there. Out the window like batman. For realz.
That must have taken forever!
But the work and patience really pay off.
Stunning!

That coverlet is GORGEOUS> I would buy it in a heartbeat if it were for sale.
I LOVE the new look and I LOVE that quilt! I have no idea how to even do that, but I love it!
Eeek! It’s gorgeous!! :) What patience that would take to make! I always see handsewn, teeny-tiny squared quilts in thift shops and they just kill me, the detail and hand work that went into them… :) love!
