About Me

Hi, I'm Lynn Harris. I learned to sew from my mother when I was very young and was encouraged by my grandmother, who always told me that anything I made was the “most beautiful thing” she had ever seen.

I take inspiration from my husband and three amazing children. We live in Michigan where we grow vegetables and raise chickens. I enjoy many kinds of needlework and love to knit, spin, embroider, and browse my collection of vintage children’s books.

P was thrilled to help me lay out the 361 blocks in the butterfly quilt. We had to move the furniture in the living room to have space to lay it all out.

We were pleased with the layout but others in the family want to try a color or value placement to the blocks. We picked up all the blocks and have them sorted by light on dark, dark on light, and same value. We all got headaches from squinting our eyes at the blocks to see which way they read.
