With Easter only a few weeks away, I wanted to share these sweet little embroidery patterns that could be stitched on small Easter treat bags or perhaps on the corner of napkins for a whimsical place setting. Imagine how cute they’d look embroidered on the front of a baby onesie, or the collar of a little girl’s dress! Vintage Workbasket…
Well… before I get to the fabrics, I want to apologize for a post notification/newsletter that went out late yesterday afternoon. I was cleaning up old posts and fixing broken links, etc to get the blog ready for our son to install the pretty new theme when I hit the wrong button. I did have someone unsubscribe because of that,…

Hello Everyone! We’re the Hexie Turtles! And we’re here to tell you about what we did to get ready for Valentine’s Day. Well… actually I’m going to tell the story because Sue made me first, so that makes me the oldest. Lanie is next oldest. She’s my BFF. And then Rexie is youngest. He’s my other BFF. Sue was super…
It’s been a fun and busy week here with Dave home for a short break. As an added bonus… I haven’t had to shovel snow once. And considering that we’ve had 13 1/2″ of snow in the past 36 hours, that’s a really good thing! While my guys have been trying to keep ahead of the snow, I’ve had time…
33 years ago today, Dave and I were married in a Friday evening ceremony in the chapel on Camp Wainwright (now known as Canadian Forces Base Wainwright.) Happy Anniversary Dave!
