We can work with any make-up classes as well! Just reach out and let me know the dates you will be gone! We have the option to come to one of the other class times that week or make it up on another day.

What happened Around the Spinney this last month:

We went camping for Memorial Day at the Chain O'Lakes State Park in Spring Grove, IL and it was so fun!
​Highlight of the trip? We are all able to ride bikes and actually went onto gravel trails. We had three big bike trips while we were camping and loved it so much that we have been taking advantage of some mountain bike paths near us in the Paul Douglas Preserve.
If you live in near Chicago, I really recommend the trails- they are well maintained and clearly marked out. They are closed when there is a lot of rain, but ready for rides at all other times. Check them out at the button below:

I'm gearing up to release another quilt pattern this month and here is a little sneak peak:

Check your inbox for the Sunset Sail Quilt links soon! Until then, have a good beginning of the summer!
