I'm a teaching again!

I homeschooled my kidlets through second grade and we all had a ball. They learned so much. I learned so much. It was a tremendous blessing to have that time with them to focus on nurturing their love of learning.

When our homeschool journey came to an end, I was sad. I had learned that I was actually a pretty good teacher and that I actually loved to teach.

The good news is that I've found a way to blend my love of teaching with my passion for quilting. I'll soon be teaching at a new local quilt shop, Sew Vintage on Shelbyville Road.

The first class I'm teaching is a beginning piecing class. We'll be making this table runner in the class. The three blocks it has contain most of the major building blocks of quilt making and it should give the students a good introduction into the "how to" of piecing.

I'm really excited about this new venture and thrilled that I get students yet again. Only this time they already know how to read and write!


GooseyGirl has been dressing up Yogi for photographs. She took this one and entitled it, "Cat in a Snowstorm". He looks thrilled, doesn't he?
