We are home after spending a few days in Southern Alberta with my husband's family, and it was the perfect setting to snap a picture of the little vests that Emily and I put together for the littles... they are made from a quilt their mommas had when they themselves were little girls 💕💙

The farm where Great Grandma and Grandpa live was the perfect setting for a little photoshoot!

(Little Bea's parents prefer her face not be shared)

When our girls were little, they had matching quilts on their beds thanks to Zellers... because this was before I fell into the wonderful world of quilting ✂️

Fast forward several years, and today seemed like the perfect day for a little upcycled sewing magic ✨ After all with four new little girls in my life, a quilted vest for each just felt like the perfect way to give one of the quilts new life ✂️

Thanks a million to Emily for sharing her garment sewing wisdom and calmly talking me down when I made a mistake... or three 😘

The pattern is by Peachy Stitches on etsy ✂️

It's an upcycling sort of day today ✂️(Also, yay for time behind the sewing machine!)

Well hey there, Friends!

How have you been?

Life for me lately has been one part busy with enjoying the grands and the day to day... and one part lazy as Robyn & I just celebrated our 30th anniversary with a getaway to Mexico. Unfortunately we both were quite sick with colds before we left, "enjoyed" them immensely while we were there, and are still both not quite back to normal, so that's been an adventure.

These days I'm both missing sewing and feeling no pull towards it whatsoever. It's disheartening. I'm hoping the desire returns, or maybe a nudge in a new direction is around the corner for me creativity.

I will say that I'm participating in Yarrow Days this Saturday, with both my Dad and Daughter as fellow vendors, and we're really looking forward to it! I'd love it if you come out, say hi, and give me a good kick in the creative posterior because I sure could use it!

Mother's Day is just around the corner, and a copy of Up at Gabby's House is much longer lasting than a bouquet of flowers.
Just saying 😘

The idea for Up at Gabby's House came to me not long after my Mom passed away on Mother's Day 2022. I was grieving and I was reminiscing, and searching my mind for memories just brought so much peace. Before the book was even fully underway, I had little verses and snippets running through my mind, I couldn't write them down fast enough, and the idea that was forming made me so excited. I knew it had to happen.

Mother's Day feels very very different for me now. I wish I could have shared my book with my Mom. But I truly know that she knows it was accompanied.

"I lost my Mom on Mother's Day, she would have loved this book
But I know she's peeking down from heaven for a look"

If you'd like a copy or two of Up at Gabby's House for your Mom, your Grandma, your best friend... I can make it happen! I PROMISE it will bring a smile to their faces as they read and reminisce 📖

And in the background of this photo, you can see the beautiful Snowball bush that we planted in Mom's memory 🤍🌿
