We are one family. One family . . . by blood or marriage or friendship. We live in the same small town in Central Illinois. We are moms and daughters. We are sisters and cousins. We are grandmas and wives and aunties.

We all love to quilt and were raised to believe that a girl should always wear her undershirt. And, on those days when you
wear a dress, a petticoat is always in order. This is where you'll find photos and stories of our quilting adventures.

The birthday girl and her goodies :o)


Our founding member (mom / Gramma Nancy) had a VERY special 70th birthday celebration this summer when our group, including dear friends, Evelyn & Mary Alice, took a fun-filled road trip to the land of all-things-quilts (at least in the Mid-West) . . . Paducah, Kentucky.  We met bright and early one Saturday morning, the birthday girl had a special BIRTHDAY sash pinned on her and we were off!  Laughter was abundant the entire day and we have been planning our next trip ever since we got back.
