Quilting with Cats
Did you ever lay your blocks out the night before only to have your BFF make some modifications in the night. Uhh, yeah... Thanks for your help Merlin, but I think I'll stick with the original design.

Fashion Camp August 2019
Ooops, we did it again! Another week of summer, and another week of Fabulous Fashion camp. These Kids are AMAZING! We did pants, shorts, skirts, hoodies, jackets, scrunchies, and even some fashion forward doll clothes.
Here's the warm up practice run...
The runway show...
The Group Shots...
More Smiles.
Cake was by Marin, we had our nails done at Linda's Hair Expressions, photos by Brenda, and another BIG THANK YOU to everyone who 'made it work', we couldn't have done it without you! We look forward to seeing everyone again at Groovy Threads!
Just wanted this dress to be a onesie!
Celia, a new Emerald 118 driver sent us these before and after selfies. Look how sad she is in the first photo and how fabulous in the second. A quote from Celia...
"I really just wanted this dress to be a onesie! :)"
That's some seriously groovy work Celia, and please keep sending in the show and tell !!

Fashion Camp July 2019
Fashion Camp July 2019 - it was hot in July, it was a lot of work, we made a lot of friends, but most of all these girls made FASHION!! There were some stitching veterans in the crowd, but some were sewing for the first time. We all learned a little bit about sewing, we all learned a little bit about ourselves, and we ALL had FUN. Thank you ladies, enjoy your sewing and we hope to see you again next year!
Here's the work in progress...
The practice run.
The red carpet runway...
Cake and Flowers.
And the group shot.
Hair by Linda's Hair Expressions, Flowers by Forget-Me-Not Florist, Cake by Mya, Photos by Brenda. And a really big Thank You to everyone that helped "Make It Work".
