Maybe having a new baby, or grandbaby, or retiring, those are all different times when we see people come to this craft,” Sara Gallegos, Co-Owner Decorative Stich in Shelby Township, told “Live in the D’s” April Morton.
One thing Gallegos says she sees with quilters is often times it’s connected to the heart. “I feel like making quilts kind of fills the soul,” Gallegos said.
