About Me

My Photo
A homeschooling mother of one teenager and a little. In 2001, I resigned from my 13 year position as a case manager to homeschool my oldest who was a preschooler at the time, and later a daughter who came along in 2005. This is by far the hardest job I've ever loved. My husband of nearly 20 years supports us as a fire fighter and EMT.

Vintage Scarf Quilt


I always see dressy silk/nylon scarves at the thrift store. I've been thinking about quilts lately, and when I saw the scarves the other day, I thought of course, ready made squares!

They'd also make some luxurious pillows.

Pictured above is a nice one that I found on Google images by ouno design.

Cute idea. I have a lot of woollen scarves/wraps I will probably never use again... suddenly I see them with a new lease of life on my bed (covered in cat fur, of course).
