Asian fabrics are my favorite. I used them to make my second tuffet. Hubby was nice enough to assist me in assembling it; it’s better with two sets of hands. I made my first tuffet in a class at Creations, a wonderful quilt shop in Kerrville, Texas. I should have made my second one soon after, while everything was fresh in my memory. I had the pattern, of course, and I actually took notes, but I this time I went slowly.

We are having a few gray days, so I went looking for a splash of color in my photo library.

Finding Out
Paula realized she and her friends heard different stories about the door over the years: hidden skeletons of lost children or a chained werewolf waiting for its next meal. When asked, her parents shrugged, feigning indifference, saying they’d never really paid attention.
She wasn’t about to take their word for it.
Swinging her flashlight over the shelves, Paula inspected the objects, each with an envelope in front. Her breathing slowed when she found her teddy bear, lost years ago (or so she thought), and the envelope addressed to her.
Dust fell away as she opened it, taking out the note.
