If you are a Friends fan you know that saying, “We were on a break". Well that was me, but now I am back and ready for action. My life is pretty normal, but I had to slow down a bit due to building a house, then moving and settling in, getting kids ready to go back to school, then Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year all hit at once and I was exhausted. I took January and Febuary off, and it was a very nice feeling. I did quilt some for Christmas and the new house.

When I designed the new house I made sure that I got an amazing studio. I actually picked this house plan because it was so easy to add the studio to.

My sewing areas were all over the place and separated at the old house. Now, I am in one room and I love it. I would love to share my studio with you.

**My Father-in-law built this storage/bookshelf unit for me and I love it!**

I am so happy to finally be settled, designing, and writing patterns again with Tonya. She was so patient with me.

So now you know where I have been. I hope you guys stick around and see all we have planned.
