Sorry gang. I meant to post this ‘before’ the trunk show. Getting back into blogging after everything that happened to me last year has been ……. somewhat challenging.

How I know I’m in good mental shape? When I’m engaging in the things that I love. This is how I knew I might finally be healing from the effects of Lyme. Around the end of May I started sewing again. Honestly I had not stepped foot in my sewing room since about January. I […]

My name is Terah and I have serious addiction …. to vintage quilts. Not all vintage quilts….. Just the ones that are unfinished. Unusual. That speak to me. That need some TLC.
