Sasha

Hi There! I'm Sasha and I'm lucky enough to be quilting and blogging along with this wonderful quilt!!! Mine is out of civil war fabrics from my stash and bits of wool here and there- so it will be nice and dark and cozy!!!

I'm replacing the cherries with wool- I'm not happy with the little corners! It's not sewn down or embroidered yet- I'm thankful we have until the end of december!!! I'm on my clinical placement at the moment for my nursing degree so not much is getting sewn- two weeks left then I can sew sew sew to my hearts content! See you soon!

P.S. Thanks Chookyblue!!!
