Happy July to all. I hope y’all had a wonderful and safe 4th celebrations. We had a fairly quiet one. We sat out in the screened in porch and watch the neighbors fireworks.

(well, except for the crickets and the frogs LOL)  Just a reminder, We are open ONLY on Wednesdays from 10 am to 4 pm. I apologize for the change again. But I think it will be best for all of us for many...

As summer winds down and schools are back in session, our thoughts turn back to our sewing projects and holidays. Halloween is next and I know there are lots of y’all out there that love Halloween.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY !! Time to celebrate all the wonderful freedoms that we enjoy in here in this, the most wonderful country on Earth.

The world is a wondrous place, but at the end of the day, there is nothing like home sweet home in the land that I love !! Have a wonderful and safe holiday y’all. Hope you have a wonderful time and are able to stay cool somewhere and relax...
