Say Hello to Your New Woodland Friends!
Finn the Fox
A naturally curious guy, Finn is always exploring the gorgeous woodlands and leading his friends on adventures. Be nice to Finn and he will be a friend for life.
Archie the Owl
Archie is the voice of reason. All the Woodland Friends come to him for advice and he is always proud to give it. Don't visit Archie before dusk, he needs his beauty sleep!
Penelope the Rabbit
Quite the social butterfly, Penelope loves passing the time chatting with her friends. Penelope is cute and cuddly but don't get on her bad side!
Harper the Squirrel
You'll have to look quick to find Harper as she is always running and leaping around, hiding food and playing games. Harper loves to prank her friends, so watch out for her tricks!
Oliver the Raccoon
Like all raccoons, Oliver doesn't have the best reputation. All he wants to do is make friends, so you'll find him being very helpful as he tries to clear the raccoon name.
Amelia the Bear
Amelia is the gentle giant of the group. At first, the animals were afraid of Amelia but they soon learned she is as sweet as honey. Amelia loves her friends but you will often find her enjoying some quiet time alone.
George the Hedgehog
Ask any of the Woodland Friends and they'll tell you George is adorable but a little bit grumpy. He doesn't like surprises, so don't sneak up on him!
Millie the Deer
Millie stays busy as the "mom" of the group. She is often taking care of the others and keeping them out of trouble, so it's no wonder she looks forward to relaxing at the end of a long day.

As I’m going through this quilting process, I can’t believe how beautiful the quilting designs are! I would never have such a custom quilted look without learning this process! Yes it takes time and precision, but the results are spectacular! Thank you so much for this beautiful quilt!

Sarah, I want to thank you for your incredible talent and willingness to share with us. I am learning more than I had hoped for, both in cutting machine skills and embroidery mastery.... Even though I have been doing machine embroidery for more than 30 years. I am in awe of your tenacity for getting it perfect.
Nola G.
Your instructions are well laid out and explained. I couldn’t have found a better website and Facebook friends. You have given good advice and help along the way. Thank you to everyone. A big thank you to Sarah for all the work she puts into helping us all learn so much in such little time!
