I love your enthusiasm. It is contagious. 1800 to 1840 has always been my favorite time period. I love Mary's quilt. I plan to join you on your journey.
Mary's journey sounds fascinating. The sewing these girls did at such a young age! I have been quilting for years so I probably won't make the quilt but plan on following along. I love all the seasons, winter, spring, summer and fall. Thanks for your time and effort for putting all this together.
Oh I’m so glad you’re going to follow along and listen! I believe you will find the story interesting.Please share your thoughts on what we discuss as we go through the project!
Congratulations Susan. Thank you for all the hard work you have done to bring First Stitches! Looking forward to hand quilt & stitch with you summer, fall, & winter. Enjoy the stitch in time! 🧵🪡❤️
Susan, I love all the history you provide about quilting and stitching in your videos! I look forward to learning more about quilting in the 1840’s in First Stitches!!
I am delighted you’re going to join in to learn more. I think we are going to have a fabulous time Stitching and chatting about The way things were done in the past!
I'm so interested in the doll quilt. Quilting is great in the fall and winter. Cross stitch in the spring and summer. Thanks to Brenda and the serial starter for recommending this project and your channel. I love the history behind it all.
Congratulations, Susan, on this incredible project and opportunity. I will follow all that you do while I cross stitch. I am so excited to have this learning opportunity. Thank you for all the work and dedication you have put into this experience. You are simply a treasure!!!
Susan I am so excited to have found your historical sewing videos and look forward to meeting Mary and stitching the doll quilt. I was about 8 when I asked my mom for needle and thread to make my Barbie doll some clothes. Next I graduated to her all meta Pfaff where she taught me the basics and turned me loose! Glad she had a knee pedal! I have XS for over 40 years and have quilted for about 15. My very first quilt class we constructed one fan block, embellished it and hand bound it. I was probably in my 30’s then and thought that was a lot of work. Now I have come full circle and can’t wait to make a doll blanket with Mary. Thank you so much! Your voice is relaxing and I have learned so much.
Thank you for your very kind and encouraging comment. I am delighted you want to join all of us who are making the Mary 1840 Doll quilt!!!!!This is something I wish I had done when I was at the house very beginning of my journey as a quilter!!!!!I’ll look forward to hearing from you and I hope you will post your progress on the #first_Stitches
How exciting for all of us to have this chance to work along side one another! Love your channel and your content. You are a terrific teacher. Your explanation about the origins of our wonderful hobby as strictly utilitarian/survival stitching, rings true. Congratulations on the launch of your doll quilt project and First Stitches. quilt winter spring fall
Thank you so much. I appreciate your comment and I am happy you are a part of the adventure! We are so fortunate to have this way of connecting with other stitchers
Hi Susan! Your enthusiasm for your new project is infectious! I will dig into my stash to see what fabrics look to be of that period. Your videos are always so informative and valuable to any quilter!!!! I keep a quilt on every bed all year long - winter, spring, summer and fall. In fact, I have made so many that I need to rotate them every 3 months to be sure all are displayed and enjoyed. Thank you for all you time and efforts. They are so appreciated!
What an exciting project. I have been quilting for the past 30 years. I will enjoy watching quilting through the eyes of a 6 year old. Thank you for doing this.
Thank you!!! I think it is fascinating to learn about the ways of doing things in the past!!! We have so many comforts today including tools for needlework !
I am so glad I found you! Brenda & Laura shared your quilt project that you will be sharing and teaching. How fun! I can’t wait to join in on this! ❤ quilt, winter, spring, fall, summer
The doll quilt is an adorable project! I love all things sewing related and the history behind it. Congradulations on your milestone! Winter, spring, summer or fall are all perfect projects.
I love quilt, winter, spring, summer and fall. The doll quilt kit is wonderful! Looking forward to seeing the tutorials and everyone’s progress. Thanks. Barb
Hi Susan, what an amazing endeavor you are doing! I can only imagine how much time, energy, thought, and preparation this has taken so far and will as well as you proceed. I have done needlework and sewing for many years, but only started quilting during Covid via online tutorials by Celeste Creates. I am loving it and I have been busy making a quilt for each of my grandchildren as I am not young anymore. I have also made many items for gifts which I love to share. There is such joy in creating a quilt or quilted project and gifting it to someone you love. I am totally in love with the beautiful fabrics that are now available to us; I love all kinds of fabrics so I have definitely fallen down that rabbit hole! LOL. This was such an interesting video and I hope to follow along with your tutorials and learn what you have worked so hard to share. Thank you Susan. ❤
Thank you for sharing your story! I am so happy to have you joining me and many others for this journey to the past where we look at early sewing techniques! I look forward to hearing from you again!
Thank you for the great videos. Looking forward to the quilt tutorials, quillting is my passion. I love quilting during all the seas ons fall, winter, spring and summer. Your work is amazing., so educational and inspiring.
How exciting! You announcement had me ready to go thru my drawers of reproduction fabrics and start pullling 😊. I learned to quilt -all by hand with pencil drawn and scissor cut cardboard templates as a new mom 40 years ago and the love affair never ended. I am so looking forward to returning to handwork ( other than my appliqué) while learning more about “Mary’s” life and times. Thank you for all your informative and enjoyable floss tube episodes. I am awed and a huge fan!
Thank you so much for introducing yourself and letting me know you want to participate! I am so excited to walk through this with others. This little Quilt is going to be so special and contain so many wonderful memories
Susan, I am looking forward to sewing along with you and learning about “Mary”. I really appreciate all the research you have done to give the rest of us the history of what we all love to do,!!! Thanks so much.
How exciting. This new quilt project you have developed will be wonderful. Although I will probably not stitch the project since I have so many projects I am working on, I will follow along and learn. I think it is wonderful you are offering a kit. A lot of work for you to assemble, plus the creation of the work pouch/basket on top of that. I always appreciate your love and enthusiasm for what you do. I love stitching and listening to you. Your quilts are amazing.
Be sure to head over to my website on June 22 at 8:15 AM Seattle time to purchase a kit. If there is more interest than I originally planned I will make more kits !!!!!
Thank you for sharing your immense knowledge of the history of needle arts and all its components. Life was certainly harder in 1840. I love the discovery you made regarding your silk display cabinet. Keep sharing your joy for what do and your talents and congratulations on your 5K subscribers. Quilt Spring Fall
I love this! Sewing and quilting from the past is a great idea. Cannot wait for the series to start. I like to stitch and quilt in the winter, spring, fall and summer.
Congrats on the 5000 subscribers. Such a lovely project to go on a journey with Susan. I look forward to the tutorials it will be my first doll quilt. Winter Spring Summer and Fall.
I love the First Stitches project! Can't wait for the journey to begin and to learn about quilting and sewing during the early American time period. Spring, summer, winter, or fall I love to quilt during them all!
Congrats on 5000 and your beautiful project. I'm excited to start the doll quilt. I am anxiously awaiting the first stitches start. Spring winter summer fall
Love your idea. If I still had my quilt Shoppe you would fit in perfectly as a teacher. I specialized in reproduction fabric up to 1920. We had civil war soldiers barge into our Civil War Love Letter class as they told us what living at that time was like, we lugged in our heavy treadle sewing machine to have our club members try to get the machine to sew, had an area roped off outside so customers could see how large a covered wagon was plus other fun things to get them to see the time way before we were alive. We delved into the history of samplers and the ages of girls who stitched them and many more things like that. The last day of our shop a customer made a surprise visit dressed in 1860’s woman’s clothing to demonstrate how women at that time wore all the different layers of clothing and explained what was acceptable . She knew it was going to a sad day and she wanted to make it a special. It was wonderful as we had young people in the Shoppe and she really keyed into the differences of dress and society. This idea of yours would have been so perfect as I loved to tell customers that we stand on the shoulders of those who came before us. Bringing history alive is special. Thank you for sharing so much information with us.
Oh my goodness you’re a Shop would have been my dream! I’m so sorry I never was able to visit as I’ve never been to a shop quite like you’ve described. Can you tell me more ????I’m sure you inspired a lot of stitchers along the way . Please keep in touch and I would love to hear your thoughts on the project and what I will cover ❤️
What a fascinating content!! I can hardly wait to follow along! I love to quilt and cross stitch all year long, spring, summer, fall, and winter. I can still remember being astounded when my mother picked up quilting when all 5 of us kids left home. I said to her, I didn’t know you could quilt! She commented she always knew how, just chose not to. When I asked her why, she replied, she had to do so much of it when she was young she didn’t think she would ever want to do it again. She went on to say it wasn’t a hobby when she was little. It was work. She was born in 1922. I am glad to say she did learn to love it again.
Oh my! I so want to take part in this sewing project. A friend and I just finished a quilt camp for 4-H'ers wanting to learn to make a quilt. What a fun experience. My grandmother taught me to quilt at a very early age. Exciting! Summer, Winter, Fall and quilt. Thank you.
Oh your antique doll quilt is adorable - I love it! I always thought quilting would be a hobby for long winter nights but I cannot stop, even though we have the hottest spring here in UK for many a year :) Happy stitching love from Wales x
I would love to win the winter set 😊. I also plan on purchasing the doll quilt kit if at all possible because I think 5000 will also want to purchase a kit.
Very interesting video. I would love to make a doll quilt. Looking forward to watching your tutorial. If I feel I could do this I will watch it again and follow along. Thank you for all your research and work you put into this project.
Congratulations on 5K subscribers !! I absolutely love your enthusiasm for history and needle work. I will be joining you. If I am not lucky enough to get a kit, I will put one together myself. I love to quilt ! in the winter, spring or fall . I am excited for you and for all of us to be so lucky to have you share your knowledge with us.
This is so exciting. I put the time and date in my phone to remind me to order. 😊 I have a couple of antique doll beds that the quilt would be perfect for. Thank you so much for your love of history stitching and being willing to share. ❤ 😊
I am so excited at the overwhelming response. I am busy putting together more kits And I will offer a pre-order option. This is something you can start at any time as the tutorials will be available forever! Thank you so much for your enthusiasm
I like to quilt to but I also like to cross stitch, knit, spin yarn, etc. it’s funny how different crafts tend to be more suited for certain seasons. I find quilting to be good for the summer and spring and knitting in the winter and fall. I cross stitch all year round though! Looking forward to hearing more about Mary’s life!!
Wow, Susan!!!! So much work you have put into this! Thanks so much, I cannot wait. I am excited to try this. I have never done a quilt. Spring, summer, fall, winter.
Susan, your videos are always so informative and interesting. I love all the history you share and your enthusiasm really comes through. Congratulations on your new sewing project, you’ve certainly got me excited as I’ve been a quilter for over 20 years. Quilt, spring, summer, fall, winter.
I am delighted to hear that you are excited!!! I have learned so much about early sewing and I am so anxious to share!!! Thank you for joining me on this channel!
Oh Susan absolutely love Mary’s blanket,congratulations on your 5,000, I have three little granddaughters and have made them all cleverly dolls blankets…. Yes we must keep our stitching history going,Thankyou for sharing🇳🇿👍🪡❤️👏
Congratulations on 5k subscribers. i love the quilt behind you. You are so knowledgable about quilting history. I love Winter, Summer, Fall and Spring. We have all the seasons here in Ohio. Spring and Fall are my favorites. Looking forward to your and Mary's story. Louverna Tomer
Quilt in winter, fall and summer. I love your new project! I am a quilter and stitcher. When I learned to quilt it was by hand and I loved it! Am looking forward to hearing about the history and also the story about Mary.
Thank you for introducing yourself and I’m excited to have you joining in on the fun project as a viewer! Life is so different now and I find it so helpful and enriching to look back at Days gone by!!!
What a fun and exciting project! I enjoy history and all types of fiber arts. I do all of it winter, spring, summer, fall… we need a fifth season… life is too short to do all the things!!!! Denise
I couldn’t agree more! So many ideas so little time😀 I try to savor every stitch and write down my dreams so they don’t carry me away into another project!!!!
Hi Susan, how wonderful that you are sharing your knowledge of quilting through the ages with us. I know my grandmother was a seamstress in 1898 and I have always been drawn to needlework and sewing myself. I look forward to learning along with you as a way to understand what they were using and how they created during this earlier time frame. Congratulations on reaching 5k. Thank you! Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. What a Joyful time we will have.
Thank you for celebrating with me and sharing a bit of your story. I love knowing that some of our ancestors are accomplished Needleworkers! Sometimes I wonder if my love for Stitching and textiles is genetic❤️
Susan: Just watched your announcement stitching project. Ever since I started to sew as a child, I have been amazed that people hand sewed their clothing and everything that they used. I come from a long line of stitchers, tailors and milliners and I wish I had asked them more questions about their experiences and learning their trades. I quilt, sew and cross stitch and am looking forward to your lessons in techniques and histories. Winter and Summer are my favourite seasons.
Thank you so much!!! How fantastic to have that background. I hope this experience connects you to your ancestors on an even deeper level. Please share any stories about their lives and work that pertains to this stitching experience 😀
Enjoy your historical journey. I loved seeing your eight pointed star pin cushion in your cabinet. I thought I was the only one that made one because I became obsessed with the shape of it. Thanks for all your in depth research.
Congrats on 5000 subscribers. Love the Doll quilt, and will be following you on your quilting lessons. I will plan to make one along with you using Kansas Troubles fabric. Thank you for sharing your history knowledge with us, it is greatly appreciated.
Oh I love this idea and I hope you build special memories together. I have such fond memories of my grandmother that revolve around sewing and baking. Please share your progress on the #fidst_stitches!!!
What a spectacular kick off for Summer Susan, Mary’s project just fabulous !! Love it🥰♥️🪡🧵 As always your teaching & sharing is delightful can’t get enough…take good care🤗♥️
The Mary project sounds wonderful. I love sewing history and will sew along with you. Thanks so much! Quilt, winter, fall, summer. I also love linen thread, but have only one color so far. I have used it in making hand-stitched needle books and ornaments so far.
I love that you use linen thread! I love the texture it provides to a project. Your Needle books and ornaments sound lovely and I would love to see a picture of them.!!
Such a wonderful video. Love the little quilt kit. Would love to try it, along with everyone else. Crafts are great for all seasons, spring, summer, fall and winter.
Hi Susan, Congratulations on 5k subscribers 🎉. I have never made a quilt before so I’m looking forward to hopefully purchasing Mary’s kit. Winter, spring, summer, fall. TY for sharing your talents with us ❤
I will make more kits if they run out!!!! Please be patient and I will be sure you get one. There will be a pre-order option if you aren’t able to purchase one right away.
So glad I discovered your channel. I have an antique quilt and some unfinished blocks I treasure. My favorite time to quilt is fall and winter. I also enjoy cross stitch.
I only started quilting about 2 years ago but love learning about its history. I plan to follow along and watch the progress. The quilt behind you is so stunning! I think Medallion quilts are my favorite. Fall Summer Winter Spring
Susan, I really enjoyed your video. This is my first time watching. I’m so glad your channel was recommended to me. I love learning about stitchers before us. I cannot wait for these tutorials. I love to cross stitch, quilt, and crochet. I love quilt, winter, spring, summer and Fall.
Warm greetings from Connecticut! I definitely want one of your workbag kits! Sounds like I will not be able to get one until June 22 at 8:15pm via your website. Thank you so much for the love and care you have put into creating this very special project! I can't wait to join you on this journey! I am a very experienced needleworker, recreating historical pieces from the 17th through 19th Centuries. I have been in re-enactment groups that focus on Medieval/Renaisssance and Colonial time periods so I know a great deal about historical textiles as well as how people lived and dressed in the past. I have recently become very interested in the 1830s and 1840s so your project comes at the perfect time. I know how to sew by machine and hand but have never made a quilt! Thanks for your dedication, Susan, to so carefully researching the past and sharing it with us.
Oh my I am honored to have you join me in this journey of stitching and learning! I am sure we could chat for hours about early fabrics and I am sure I could learn so much from you about clothing in 1840!! If there is more interest in the kits than I anticipated I will make more! Thank you for sharing your story with me!
@@susanstandleystitchintime thanks so much for your kind reply, Susan. Yes we could talk for hours about antique fabrics and the lives of the people who owned them. 😊
First time viewer and new subscriber. Love your new project that takes a walk through the past with the doll’s quilt. And the spring, summer, fall, and winter charts are all good ones. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
Gosh, Susan, I am just lost in admiration of your achieving the First Stitches project!! Just love how you have branded everything and packaged it all in view of the 1840s - such attention to detail! If ever I work up the courage to make my first quilt I am sure that it will be with Betsy Chutchian fabric as I just love her designs - maybe this Summer or Fall. Wishing you all the best with all your endeavors but especially with your eye situation. Take good care of your dear self!
You will be happy to know that many of Betsy's fabrics appear in little Mary's Doll Quilt kit!!!! I hope you will watch and when you take the plunge to start stitching PLEASE let me know!
I got so excited when I heard about this from Brenda and the Serial Starter. I was so pleased to see your enthusiasm about the project. I love Spring, Winter, Fall and Summer. I’m not sure if I can get the kit, but I will be stitching along with you for sure!!
Thanks for a wonderfully floss tube today, Always happy when I see a new one is ready to view. Here is the Pacific northwest. Fall winter spring and summer are happy time for me in Oregon, Love the changes of the season. Sally A M

Hello my sweet friend you have to motivate me because Stitching all those tiny eyelets has been quite challenging!!!!!I wish I was right back at the Attic stitching next to you! Thank you for your sweet comment I feel the very same about you!
Good morning from Ohio. I’m enjoying your videos very much. I’ve been a quilter of reproduction quilts for 40 years and just started cross stitching again 6 months ago. I’m learning so much from you in every session I watch. I hope we can meet someday. I think we’d be great friends. I have projects going every winter spring summer and fall and try to make time for stitching everyday! I’m excited for your new projects and want to share them with my stitching friends!!
I’m so glad to have you joining me! I am compelled to Quilt and stitch every day and I would be thrilled to meet you! I think you will find Crosstitch a peaceful way to end the day… Or start it! I have to work hard to fit it all in but it’s so worth it ! Thank you for commenting and introducing yourself 😍. I look forward to hearing from you again
Congratulations on reaching 5000 subscribers Susan! And your new project sounds amazing! How fun to be creative and to put a historical spin on it. Two of my favorite things! As you were explaining it, I couldn't help but think of my ancestors that lived in the 1840's in Ohio and how this would be how they lived. I will definitely be working along with you. I can't wait. Winter. Take care!
I am so happy you will be joining me. I cant wait to see the fabrics people choose . We will all enjoy watching each other's progress. If you have roots in Ohio I bet you have some quilts! This will be so fun!

Congratulations on 5k subscribers. Enjoyed hearing about Mary and the history of sewing. Quilt in winter, summer, spring and fall. Happy stitching!
Thank you for watching
Love your idea. If I still had my quilt Shoppe you would fit in perfectly as a teacher. I specialized in reproduction fabric up to 1920. We had civil war soldiers barge into our Civil War Love Letter class as they told us what living at that time was like, we lugged in our heavy treadle sewing machine to have our club members try to get the machine to sew, had an area roped off outside so customers could see how large a covered wagon was plus other fun things to get them to see the time way before we were alive. We delved into the history of samplers and the ages of girls who stitched them and many more things like that. The last day of our shop a customer made a surprise visit dressed in 1860’s woman’s clothing to demonstrate how women at that time wore all the different layers of clothing and explained what was acceptable . She knew it was going to a sad day and she wanted to make it a special. It was wonderful as we had young people in the Shoppe and she really keyed into the differences of dress and society. This idea of yours would have been so perfect as I loved to tell customers that we stand on the shoulders of those who came before us. Bringing history alive is special. Thank you for sharing so much information with us.
Oh my goodness you’re a Shop would have been my dream! I’m so sorry I never was able to visit as I’ve never been to a shop quite like you’ve described. Can you tell me more ????I’m sure you inspired a lot of stitchers along the way . Please keep in touch and I would love to hear your thoughts on the project and what I will cover ❤️
Looking forward to the doll quilt journey. How delightful!
I am so happy you are joining me!
What a fascinating content!! I can hardly wait to follow along! I love to quilt and cross stitch all year long, spring, summer, fall, and winter. I can still remember being astounded when my mother picked up quilting when all 5 of us kids left home. I said to her, I didn’t know you could quilt! She commented she always knew how, just chose not to. When I asked her why, she replied, she had to do so much of it when she was young she didn’t think she would ever want to do it again. She went on to say it wasn’t a hobby when she was little. It was work. She was born in 1922. I am glad to say she did learn to love it again.
Oh my! I so want to take part in this sewing project. A friend and I just finished a quilt camp for 4-H'ers wanting to learn to make a quilt.
What a fun experience. My grandmother taught me to quilt at a very early age. Exciting! Summer, Winter, Fall and quilt. Thank you.
I’m thrilled to have you participate! It’s going to be so exciting to watch everybody’s progress.
Oh your antique doll quilt is adorable - I love it! I always thought quilting would be a hobby for long winter nights but I cannot stop, even though we have the hottest spring here in UK for many a year :) Happy stitching love from Wales x
I quilt all year as well!!! We find a way no matter what the weather is dictating!!! Happy stitching to you as well!!
I would love to win the winter set 😊.
I also plan on purchasing the doll quilt kit if at all possible because I think 5000 will also want to purchase a kit.
I will make more kits if there is interest!!!!
Very interesting video. I would love to make a doll quilt. Looking forward to watching your tutorial. If I feel I could do this I will watch it again and follow along. Thank you for all your research and work you put into this project.

Thank you Anne I really appreciate you watching
I like to quilt to but I also like to cross stitch, knit, spin yarn, etc. it’s funny how different crafts tend to be more suited for certain seasons. I find quilting to be good for the summer and spring and knitting in the winter and fall. I cross stitch all year round though! Looking forward to hearing more about Mary’s life!!
Glad you are joining me!!!
Quilting since 1984 love it in all seasons. I plan on following along with you on this journey.

I couldn’t agree more! So many ideas so little time😀 I try to savor every stitch and write down my dreams so they don’t carry me away into another project!!!!
Hi Susan, how wonderful that you are sharing your knowledge of quilting through the ages with us. I know my grandmother was a seamstress in 1898 and I have always been drawn to needlework and sewing myself. I look forward to learning along with you as a way to understand what they were using and how they created during this earlier time frame. Congratulations on reaching 5k. Thank you! Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. What a Joyful time we will have.
Thank you for celebrating with me and sharing a bit of your story. I love knowing that some of our ancestors are accomplished Needleworkers! Sometimes I wonder if my love for Stitching and textiles is genetic❤️
Susan: Just watched your announcement stitching project. Ever since I started to sew as a child, I have been amazed that people hand sewed their clothing and everything that they used. I come from a long line of stitchers, tailors and milliners and I wish I had asked them more questions about their experiences and learning their trades. I quilt, sew and cross stitch and am looking forward to your lessons in techniques and histories. Winter and Summer are my favourite seasons.
Thank you so much!!! How fantastic to have that background. I hope this experience connects you to your ancestors on an even deeper level. Please share any stories about their lives and work that pertains to this stitching experience 😀
I love A quilt most of all, in summer, spring, winter , fall.

I love that you use linen thread! I love the texture it provides to a project. Your Needle books and ornaments sound lovely and I would love to see a picture of them.!!
The sampler you are stitching, the dress is pretty. Thank you for sharing.

Warm greetings from Connecticut! I definitely want one of your workbag kits! Sounds like I will not be able to get one until June 22 at 8:15pm via your website. Thank you so much for the love and care you have put into creating this very special project! I can't wait to join you on this journey! I am a very experienced needleworker, recreating historical pieces from the 17th through 19th Centuries. I have been in re-enactment groups that focus on Medieval/Renaisssance and Colonial time periods so I know a great deal about historical textiles as well as how people lived and dressed in the past. I have recently become very interested in the 1830s and 1840s so your project comes at the perfect time. I know how to sew by machine and hand but have never made a quilt! Thanks for your dedication, Susan, to so carefully researching the past and sharing it with us.
Oh my I am honored to have you join me in this journey of stitching and learning! I am sure we could chat for hours about early fabrics and I am sure I could learn so much from you about clothing in 1840!! If there is more interest in the kits than I anticipated I will make more! Thank you for sharing your story with me!
@@susanstandleystitchintime thanks so much for your kind reply, Susan. Yes we could talk for hours about antique fabrics and the lives of the people who owned them. 😊
First time viewer and new subscriber. Love your new project that takes a walk through the past with the doll’s quilt. And the spring, summer, fall, and winter charts are all good ones. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
Gosh, Susan, I am just lost in admiration of your achieving the First Stitches project!! Just love how you have branded everything and packaged it all in view of the 1840s - such attention to detail! If ever I work up the courage to make my first quilt I am sure that it will be with Betsy Chutchian fabric as I just love her designs - maybe this Summer or Fall. Wishing you all the best with all your endeavors but especially with your eye situation. Take good care of your dear self!
You will be happy to know that many of Betsy's fabrics appear in little Mary's Doll Quilt kit!!!! I hope you will watch and when you take the plunge to start stitching PLEASE let me know!
I got so excited when I heard about this from Brenda and the Serial Starter. I was so pleased to see your enthusiasm about the project. I love Spring, Winter, Fall and Summer. I’m not sure if I can get the kit, but I will be stitching along with you for sure!!

Congratulations on reaching 5000 subscribers Susan! And your new project sounds amazing! How fun to be creative and to put a historical spin on it. Two of my favorite things! As you were explaining it, I couldn't help but think of my ancestors that lived in the 1840's in Ohio and how this would be how they lived. I will definitely be working along with you. I can't wait. Winter. Take care!
