I really enjoyed searching my stash to come up with each flower combination. The whole journey made me happy.
It makes me happy too! Congratulations on the ribbon and on making such a pretty quilt!
In last week’s newsletter, I talked about the two sizes of bobbin boats that match the two sizes of bobbins (Masterpiece and Efina), stocked in our store. And also, that both sizes fit in Jacquie’s beautiful hand-crafted sewing boxes.
This week, our lucky winner, Lee, will get one of the smaller blue boats that hold the Masterpiece bobbins perfectly!
I’ll be back with another Giveaway next Wednesday. Until then you can shop for all sorts of sewing notions, books, and other fun stuff at pieceocake.com!

I received a fabric collection as a gift that was way outside my comfort zone but it inspired me to make a version of backyard birds. I embroidered every leaf. It was a fun project. When I got today’s email thought I’d share with you.
I’m lovely what look like musical notes in the lower left block. Very creative!
Thank you, Mary, for sharing and I’m proud of you for playing with this fabric :-). Well done!
The ceremony marking Steve’s life was Tuesday, September 15. It was live streamed on Youtube and the video is there now. I thought that some of you who have seen Steve pop up over the years might be interested.
This was truly a celebration! Hawaiian shirts and colorful garments were encouraged along with smiles and good memories.
There were 5 speakers who shared memories of Steve—and some truly funny stories. His brother, Charles, came first. Then a former student, Hayley, followed by colleagues, Pete and George. Our son, Jeff, was the last speaker and he nailed it. Steve would have enjoyed it all so much. If you watch, I hope you smile a lot.
I can’t resist. This week’s winner, gigi4956 has to have this soft graphite pencil featuring my favorite, Goofy, and pencil guard with “mouse ears” on the tip! Just too good. (Click here to view all the Disney Blackwing products in stock in the store.)

This cute Little Mouse Makes a Quilt kit was gifted to us and it feels right to pass that favor on to this week’s lucky winner – Judy Walahoski! Everything you need to complete the little mouse and her quilt is included… even a needle. But not scissors — you will need to use your own scissors, Judy 🤣.
