Sarah and I will be taking turns posting info about the Quilt-Along so make sure you sign up to follow us both so you won't miss anything. We'll be linking to each other on Mondays and Thursdays to share information with you. 


Have you checked out the Flickr group? It's so fun meeting everyone that is sewing with u,s and I'm loving the fabric people are choosing. Make sure you check it out if you haven't yet.
