Nice Thought
Whether machine or hand quilter…Patience is required to learn a new technique, and remembering not to rush through the stitching before us ensures we soak in the calmness of our time with needle and thread.
New Tip to Add to Gadgets, Tools, and Notions List
I shared the Gadgets, Tools, and Notion List with St. Louis friend. She responded with a useful tip:
