Tales Of A Fourth Generation Textile Executive: Blog Block
I am severely suffering from blogger’s block. As such, I have resorted to asking some of our Studioe facebook friends for suggestions. So here are some short comments and answers to things that our Studioe friends were asking about. What is my absolute favorite color combination? In my humble opinion grey continues to be super popular in quilting. It could be the new white or black and I am betting it stays around for awhile.
