Saturday Spotlight: Meet Felicity!


So today y'all get to meet my friend and fellow Pinterest addict, Felicity. She's another friend I need a joint style pin board with!

She's crazy talented (see her a-ma-zing word quilt below) and super sweet. Her blog is filled with good stuff including a very clever shoe wallet for all of you runners out there!

Get to know her and be sure to pop over to her blog and say hello. (She's got a giveaway going on over there this weekend!)

HK Wisdom front
completed sewing project: They’re *all* my favourites!! I am still really happy with the quilt I made for the Kona Solids Challenge.

What a fun feature! I enjoyed learning a few new facts about my VMQG friend Felicity. Hey Felicity, I've been a member of the car co-op for ten years, so feel free to ask me how it works!
