  • Happy Father’s Day to my sweet dad. I loved you before I ever knew the word ‘love’ and even all these years later, you keep stretching what that word means. The happiest part of yday was sitting together on your porch sharing thoughts about life’s beauty and challenges (and solving lots of them with a good laugh). The saddest part was not being able to hug you. Soon, I hope. ❤️ #happyfathersday (every day) to all the dads out there!

  • Messaging some positivity for the 2020 #CTHangAQuiltDay ! Probably should’ve picked some higher contrast colors for the letters, but it’s been fun catching passersby trying to read it! Happy solstice! 🌞#nevergiveuponyourdreams #quilt #solstice

  • Incase you were looking for something inspiring today! How about this handmade beauty from my friend Cheryl! 😍💖#Repost @catty350 #enjoytheprocess #nomatterwhat ・・・ I finished a WIP yesterday.👏🏼👏🏼This quilt top sat unfinished for about 6 years!🤦🏻‍♀️ I didn’t have enough confidence in myself to finish it. I’m frankly surprised I had enough confidence to think I could piece it. This was a free Moda pattern called Crossroads. Some of my roads don’t quite intersect, but that’s ok. The fabric is my favorite of all time. #terrainfabric by the so very talented @katespain I went all over the world on the internet in search of this fabric. There is some from Australia and England in this quilt. I can’t believe something I love so much took me so long to finish!💕

  • **UPDATE: this bundle was hugged and loved and sent off to the highest bidder! It went for $750 + an extra $100 + $850 (employer match) = $1700 ! This amount was donated in full to @eji_org Thank you thank you to everyone who participated!! 🙌🙌🙌*** This could be yours! I knew I had saved this stack of fabric for a reason. Today begins the Fundraiser for Anti-Racism organized by @misterdomestic and @alderwoodstudio . Proceeds will go to a number of organizations that are doing hard and important work to dismantle systemic racism in our country, as well as to support social justice initiatives. Go to misterdomestic.net for a complete list and more information. ❤️ Another organization to put on your radar outside of this fundraiser is the Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org located in Montgomery, Alabama. The steadfast work of Bryan Stevenson and his team is, in itself, a reflection of and education about the black experience in our country. EJI’s primary focus is on criminal justice reform, racial justice and education. They provide legal representation to marginalized people (a majority are black) who have been illegally or wrongfully convicted, unfairly sentenced or abused within the system. There is an eye-opening and extremely moving documentary about Mr. Stevenson and his work called “True Justice” that is free to watch on YouTube. ❤️ For the fundraiser ... to see all the items up for auction (including this pile of fabric!), visit @misterdomesticfundraiser on IG. Scroll all the way down to the 2nd post to read about how to bid and additional rules. Bidding ends this Friday, June 12th At 5pm PT. You can also help the success of this fundraiser by sharing and getting the word out! ❤️ I’m so happy to contribute to this effort. I stand with the black community and believe that taking positive action is one of many ways you can help people see the workings of your heart. Through community, and with humility, grace, kindness and love, we can listen carefully to black voices and stand in solidarity as we strive together for racial justice and equality. ❤️
