There is something so special about vintage fashion. I love the shape, colors, textures and stories behind these textile goods. A very dear friend of mine recently recommended the perfect resource for learning more, The Vintage Fashion Guild. Click here to check them out.

Family Fun
We had a busy weekend with our beautiful babies. There was dance recitals, backyard camping and aMother's Day celebration with family. Somehow we still managed to get enough laundry done for everyone to have clean clothes today. I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend with their loved ones!

History of Quilts
I love the art of quilting. You can creates a piece that could be hung on a wall or be snuggled. Quilts are creatons of form and function. I like to read just about anything quilting related that I can get my hands on. Recently I came across an interesting booklet from Teaching History Through the Arts. It lists eleven quilt myths, a brief history of quilting and a great poem about different blocks. You can click here to read them directly.
If you are interested in more quilt history and some of the truths behind those myths, you can click here to read a great article by Mary Fons. She has a great series called The Quilt Scout on Quilts.com.
