I just spent the weekend down in Charlotte. My sister and her husband flew me down for the weekend to take care of my niece and nephew while they went away for the weekend (thanks!). It was a gorgeous weekend – or 75 degrees and sunny the entire time. We spent a lot of time outside.

I took pictures of a quilt that I made a few years ago for my niece and nephew while I was down there. Five of the embroidered squares were made by my grandmother. My grandma is my crafting inspiration – she was a wonderful knitter, seamstress, and quilter. She always designed her own embroidery patterns.
