About

Hi! I am Shannon. Wife to an amazing (and super cute) man, and mom to 5 of the most amazing little people on the planet. I used to be a writer for a newspaper, but it turns out, raising kids while having a husband frequently gone on deployment is pretty time consuming. So I stopped getting paid to write and now write here just because it feels good. 





I love the sky, clouds, and sunshine. I'm on the SUMMER FOREVER team. I love the beach and the ocean, and I love to swim in the waves. I love flavored coffee (and lots of it), all shades of blue, secondary colors, Bob Marley, starbucks drive thrus, road trips, and camping in our travel trailer. I am a Navy wife and love this community of military friends that has become my family. I drink too much diet coke, stay up way too late,  and don't really watch TV, unless I'm watching movies on Hulu or Netflix. I like to read, but I go through phases of obsession and then nothing. I am obsessed with fabric. Which is what fuels my love of quilting. I love to take something and make that one piece into something different. And I really love the idea of creating something that becomes intertwined with a person's, a family's story. Quilts are a form of art that is both functional and lovely to look at and I still find it incredible that you can use something for warmth and comfort that is handmade, one of a kind, and such an expression of creativity. I also love to sew small things....mini quilts, pouches, bags, mug rugs, pillow covers! I love to create quilts but often need the instant gratification that a small project provides.
