I’d say the second sewcial getaway was quite a success (read about the first here). Ah, so much fun. This is just a quick recap of our weekend at the Wimberly Quilt Ranch! First off, it was such a fun house – the work room was amazing. Huge cutting table at the right height, walls [...]

That left our patio furniture looking, well, weathered. The cushions certainly took the worst of the beating – especially because I tried to [...]
