Back in the room I learned to sew, creating and soaking up all the grandma time.

I ran out of thread quilting the All Iowa Shop Hop quilt and called up my grandma to discuss the fastest way to get more. She mentioned a shop to buy some at but ultimately suggested I just come use her machine. Boy did I need that.

We talked about her projects and mine, recipes, family, health and everything in between. A quilt is easy to see but the connections and memories made are even more special. For a day I got to be a kid sewing at grandmas again and I am excited to share the quilt and fabric with you this summer during the All Iowa Shop Hop.

Anyone recognize this truck? Or maybe the reflection of the owner in the chrome? I love that the monthly special photos capture what the city boat ramp looks like at a moment in time and this month included trailering a house boat!

The truck is a yellow tulip beauty, a bit of a Frankenstein from 1976-1984, the drink is the cranberry pie snap.
