I spent Monday cleaning the house and organizing my closet.  While I puttered, I kept thinking about making a little table topper for St. Patrick's Day.  I knew just the pattern I wanted to use.  Roundabout, a fun little Schnibbles pattern by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co.  I had actually made this pattern last summer and […]

 I should have been working on my Belle Meade blocks, but I got distracted.  I was stitching away and found my mind wandering to the idea of making some sort of Valentine's themed table topper for my February tablescape.  I had a vague recollection of having some red, pink and white fabric stashed away somewhere…  […]
