Of Spring, Sewing, and Bats from caledonia quilter

WORLD NEWS: Spring is in the air, AND in the ground. I have snowdrops and crocuses blooming in the front flower bed.

You are free to make something new, or show a past project you’ve created — I knew this was a hop for ME! Anyone that knows me, knows I love purple! All you have to do is look at a few ...
