Another video of Dresden making for the #adresdenq Another video of Dresden making for the #adresdenqal . I’m sewing away, plugging along and it’s so very pretty and lifts my spirits. 🀎.In a personal note… It’s coming up the 5 year anniversary of losing my grandmother. One of the things about her I miss the most is knocking on her door and when she opened it up she always squealed or gasped and was ALWAYS happy to see me. As if I was a treat. How many people in your for make you feel that way? 🀎 This season is such a time of happiness and loveliness, but there’s sadness there too. And if this time of the year makes you feel sad, I just want to say you aren’t alone. 🀎

Pressing sess. ⭐️ I know not everyone loves st Pressing sess. ⭐️ I know not everyone loves standing at the pressing mat, but I’m kinda a fan. πŸ˜… I’ve got this creamy shag run under my feet and I have the lavender scented pressing spray. Sometimes these little tiny bits of pleasure are enough to make the mundane tasks of quilting feel a little blissful. 🌀️

Pressing background squares for #adresdenqal . Any Pressing background squares for #adresdenqal . Any day I get to play with low volume is a good day. 🀎 Something about the light airyness of it gives me happy sighs. πŸ₯° PS. There’s a new low volume collection announcing this week. 😌
