Hi! I’m Theresa Powers

I’m glad you stopped by!
Since 2004, Joyous Home has shared homemaking online. For several years, we shared through our out of print magazine, Seasons at Home.

I’ll be sharing sewing, quilting, new fabric from Beans and Stitches, and of course our recipes.
Thanks for visiting!

Coming Soon

For several years I have wanted to teach sewing and quilting from my website, offering private sections for classes – and open areas for other things – and still have it feel like a social community. I hope we can do it this time.

While there are many good things out there on social channels, the main stream media has been a distraction to me, amongst other things. In light of that, my community is undergoing a rebuild.

We hope it provides a bit more focus between for our followers. We would love for you to be part of this! Join my newsletter to be updated on the progress!
