What I did On My Summer Vacation

I 'm back from a week fishing with my hubby and sons. The weather was pretty good...at least for this "bummer" of a "summer" that we are having. While they are fishing I get to work on my quilting projects and this year I brought along some stitcheries from Bareroots.

I finished up another Little Stitchie ... this one is called "Seasons Come" ... we have the kits available for sale and they are only $9.99.

I also got a good jump start on our next block of the month program...it will be starting in October with registration starting in September. I will provide all the nitty gritty details soon but in the meantime here is a sneak peak at some of the blocks:

A Tisket A Tasket 2 ... Redwork Too!

I don't know about the rest of you but I was on the edge of my seat waiting for February 5th to roll around to see what the second block in the Tisket a Tasket Block of the Month Program would be.

To my delight it was a basket full of birds and was just to my taste. Anne also included redwork directions to give people another creative way to use her patterns. Of course I couldn't resist the redwork so started that too!




Here is a cute grouping of red and white fabric perfect for setting redwork blocks!



Redwork Fat Quarter Pack




We have Bunny Hill Designs' new Pattern - Arnie available now as well -- isn't he adorable? Can't wait to get started!

Free Block of the Month from Bunny Hill!

My Snowman Basket done in 100% wool
on a flannel background!

A Tisket A Tasket Anne Sutton of Bunny Hill Designs is starting an adorable basket themed block of the month and it is absolutely free! I was captivated by Cottons 'n Wool wool felt version. This one was done on a flannel background. I have been itching to start a wool felt project so this seemed like just the right opportunity! I used 100% wool felt from National Non-Wovens, DMC floss and a Timeless Treasures mottled tan flannel for the background.
