One Year of Wedded Bliss Under Our Belts.

Ok, so I should have written about this sooner - but here it is, better late than never!

Well, we did it. On October 2, 2011 marked our one year wedding anniversary. We had a really nice celebration too. We decided to go back to a cabin (Tree Frog Cabins) in Port Townsend, WA. It was gorgeous and so peaceful and relaxing. The weather actually held out too. It was raining in the the evening and during the night, but kept dry during the day. It was so nice for us both to just sit back and not have to be anywhere we didn't want to be. We watched a lot of movies, but also went on some beach adventures and also to a winery tasting room. We had some amazing breakfasts at the local restaurants and just enjoyed giving each other our undivided attention.

Our honeymoon Cabin!


We love this place. It is so quiet, peaceful and rejuvenating. We will find our way back there again!!

Stitch by Stitch

I have been using my sewing machine faithfully. I have become a simple quilting addict while creating some cozy quilts for family and friends. I love learning from my sewing mistakes that I classify as "Love Whoops-a-Daisies." It's a time for me to be by myself, listen to some music, watch a movie or just day dream and meditate.



The Henry quilt was made for a friends son. We were blessed to use their property for our wedding and I wanted to give them something special for their kindness and something that Henry and his parents could cuddle up with for family cozy and story time.



The Sophie quilt, for my niece who was also my flower girl in my wedding. She loved the surprise of it and the coziness. I'm so happy I can put smiles on their faces!
Looking forward to some upcoming quilts for friends and neighbors who are welcoming a new little one into their families.
