Happy February Everyone! Wherever you are in the Happy February Everyone!

Wherever you are in the world, I hope you were able to create your own sunshine today.

This is a throwback photo to 2015 when I made my first ever dresden plate. My technique has improved since then but I still love the colours in this photo. There is something about bright pink and yellow together that makes me happy. Looking forward to the weekend when I get more sewing time.

Please share with me in the comments what sewing techniques you would like to see in my upcoming pattern designs. I love to hear your feedback.
