TWO BIG things are happening today at the Basin! First, the MYSTERY BOM Quilt/Instructions are now on the website! We are finally getting our fabric in on Monday to cut kits up for you! YEEHAWWWW! Then it is REVEAL time! Our NEW Mystery Bom will spell out the words... "Let it Snow"so and will be worked up in wool & cotton! Here is the first block "L"! This is just too stinkin cute! I can't believe my hubby thought of this idea! You are all going to L*O*V*E this new BOM! Kits are up on the site for BOTH projects! Be sure to go {click your link}!
There is so much to catch up on! I couldn't post last week becuase my computer had to be rebaselined and my phone was out of storage! As you can see I am so glad to be back in action! I can't believe how much I missed you gals!!!! Next off, things are changing at the Basin! I hired another gal, Laura who will be working the phones on Tues & Thurs! She will also be filling your orders! She is off to a great start! Joey is also coming in on Tuesdays! She will be kitting and kitting and kitting! Kelly is still putting in her time at the shop, stitching & quilting for me! We really are rockin things at the shop! 2016 is off to a very prodcutive year! Next, we we have another surprise for you! Our first truck will be ready for you next wee! I hope you gals are gathering your supplies, sharpening your needles and getting ready to stitch the days away with us at the Basin! After all, it sure soothes the soul!
Things are great on the homefront! The girls are wrapping up another semester, grades are looking sweet & their schedules are busier then ever! We are so blessed with such great girls! I have been baking & cooking for robotics {they are starting to build their robots for the competitions}... up next is hotdishes for Saturday! I love me a good hotdish! Grace is nearing the end of her dance season... We will be at a compettion all day again on Saturday! The girls and Geroge have Monday off... so I am hoping my "boss" gives me at least part of the day off!!!! LOL! She's a worker bee, so you never know!!!!
What is new with you all? I have been so busy, I have no clue what I have been missing out on! We must catch up via the comments! I even missed National Dress Your Pet Day! {I am sure my cats are happy about that one!!!} That could have been so awesome! BTW- This week brought many new customers to the Basin for some reason! My FAV one, hands down, was Judy who is 80 years young and is starting her wool journey with our BOM! Gotta love it! How cool is that! I feel pretty honored! OK- I am on empty! Haven't slept yet! Had to make sure I took care of everything for you gals! I am really excited and hope you LOVE the NEW BOM as much as we do!!!!! Be sure to share it with your friends!!!! Please pop me a comment for a chance to win a kit of the NEW Let it Snow BOM!!!!!! Good luck! Happy to be back!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteGlad to have you back!
ReplyDeleteGreat tease with the "L". Am anxious to see more.
Thanks for a chance.
Thank you for being so generous with your designs. LOVE these mystery BOM's. 2015 BOM's are all done and ready for me to decide how to set them together. Not sure I want to make all those HST's but it does make it look dang cute!! Could you just clarify how big to cut the background on the new BOM - says it will fit on an 8 inch block. Is that measurement with or without SA's? Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great finishing instructions. Many thanks to your husband for the new mystery BOM idea! Can't wait to see how you put it all together!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to a very creative 2016!
Looks sew cool...thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back!! The new BOM is super cute!! Always ready to get my stitching groove on for 2016! Thanks so much!!
ReplyDeleteI do love how 2015 will finish off--unfortunately I do not have all my blocks finished--but that is a goal of mine ( I moved from NY to Fl this past year and that took alot of time and energy--just not getting back into sewing!!)
ReplyDeleteand I do love the new one--so not the question is-do I make myself finish 2015 before I start 2016???? thanks
love and laughter, di
What a great idea for the new BOM. I can't wait to see what the other letters looks like.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute snowmn. I so look forward to your BOM! Thank you so much!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet. Makes me want to run to my wool stash and get started! Would love a win about now!
ReplyDeleteCame here from SweetP's site. Have not worked with wool. I think I will start with your mystery let it snow thanks to you and Paulette
ReplyDeleteLet It Snow is going to be sew cute! I am anxious to see what the rest of it looks like. Thank you for sharing your talent and for a chance in the giveaway. This will be so much fun!

ReplyDeleteOh girl you have been very busy.
ReplyDeleteLet it snow sounds amazing !! Can't wait to see all the fun there will come.

One quick question...do the blocks finish at 8" so we cut background at 8 1/2"? This is going to be very cute...can't wait to start on the block! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you, thank you !
ReplyDeleteJust finished the blocks for 2015. Loved using wool and cotton combos. Looks like you have done it again can't wait to start shopping for more wools to use for the 2016 blocks. Thank you. Deborah Wofford

ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to this! Being a Yankee in the South, I am always singing that tune during the winter
ReplyDeleteThanks you
What a great way to start the year with your new BOM.It is hot here (100+) and we are trying to paint rooms. I think Let It Snow will be the best break from all that work.Thanks for this fun idea.
ReplyDeleteDo glad your back. Hugs to you and hubby too...for yet another creative design. This is so darn cute.
ReplyDeleteI get excited to see whats next. The trucks are great..I have two cute truck patterns of yours.
Blessings to all of you fir a great year ahead.
Love it! You are so very creative and generous. I love how the 2015 Mystery BOM turned out. Your 2016 BOM looks like another winner - will be happily stitching along. Thank you ever so much for sharing your talents!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!!! Can't wait to meet you in just a few weeks on the cruise. The B.O.M. is absolutely adorable. Thanks-
ReplyDeleteSo, so cute, snowmen are my weakness, how can I resist? 2016 BMO is sure to be a big hit. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI love Let It Snow for the theme this year!! Can't wait to get started. Thank you for the fun!
ReplyDeleteI love your designs and can't wait for the new BOM! I know I shouldn't say this, but I love snow... it's so much more fun than rain.
ReplyDeleteSo cute!!! Love snowmen. Looking forward to participating in your BOM
ReplyDeleteI just love the new bom , fantastic and can't wait to start !! Thank you so much .
ReplyDeleteYou always have the cutest patterns. I loved reading about the 80 year old lady ~ makes me think to get my 87 year old mom stitching, she does machine piecing but she tells me her hands hurt ....... she needs a bigger needle. I love that your husband gets involved in your work too.
ReplyDeleteLove how the BOM turned out! Thank you! I have 2 sets of blocks ready to assemble, one for me & one for a friend's big bday. Great new block! I'll be doing Let it Snow for sure! So much fun Stacy!
ReplyDeleteLove your enthusiasm & cant wait to get started. Need some quiet sewing time desperately!
ReplyDeleteLove the patterns! I read everything you send and enjoy the posts. I need to get the courage to make these!
ReplyDeleteI love the first block, so cute. Can't wait to see the rest of the blocks, thanks so much for sharing this with us.
ReplyDeleteAnother fantastic BOM!! Bless your generous heart and thank you so much for sharing your talent with us! :) (My husband would like me to share a disclaimer that I am using his email account. He is not the one posting ;))
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! This block is so cute and although I've been sitting on my hands the last few weeks, determined not to start a new project, I think I might be tempted here!
ReplyDeleteGlad you are back to your communication with us and what a delight to see the snowman for the beginning of 2016 BOM. Was delighted to read of your new 80-year old stitcher starting the BOM and working with wool. Aging right along, I get nervous that I may be too old to start new projects and this was a great boost to say, YES WE CAN!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute block. Almost makes winter more tolerable. Thank you for the design.
ReplyDeleteI loved this new BOM! Thanks so much for designing it. I love snowmen.
ReplyDeleteLove Love Love It! Thank you!

Oh, my house is decorated in snowmen(retired first grade teacher!). I love this darling block! Thanks for the new BOM and also the 2015 BOM. I had so much fun with it and can't wait to finish it!
ReplyDeleteI *love* snowmen, especially of the woolly variety. I'm looking forward to this BOM...thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteLovely to have you back. Fabulous block.
ReplyDeleteIf that's an example of the first block then count me in. Love it! I'm working on rearranging my time in 2016 in hopes of actually getting to do more of what I enjoy doing, so I'll definitely have to put time in the schedule for stitching the blocks for your new BOM. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am in LOVE with the idea for the new BOM...I have a thing for snowmen...it is even worse when you have lived in the GA for 21 years...not a lot of snowmen possibilities here! I'll be stitching away in AZ though...grandbaby is on the way!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the Let It Snow BOM. Thank you so much!!! Can't wait to get started on it.
ReplyDeleteI really love this new block of the month. With temps below 0 outside, this snowman makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all that you do. Thank your husband too for the great idea.
Thanks,

Hello. I'm a fan of your design and exciting to start the Let It Snow BOM. Thank you very much for your generosity.
ReplyDeleteBlock 1 is just gorgeous. I can imagine how wonderful the whole quilt is going to be.
ReplyDeleteThe new Let it Snow quilt will go so nicely with the Merrie Christmas and Merrie Halloween quilts. The Let it Snow will be perfect for between the Merrie quilts and until Spring. Although from where I am sitting Spring is a long way off. Off to gather fabric for the new Bom.
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon, Stacy! I love this BOM! Thank you so much ! You are so generous ! <3
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the "Let it Snow" blocks. Stitching on these will make for a fun winter.
ReplyDeleteI've never worked with wool so this will be FUN!!!!! I can't wait to get started!! Thank you!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe block is really cute>>>>thanks for the chance to win....
ReplyDeleteThe Buttermilk Basin Block of the Month was fun last year so I'm looking forward to the 2016 BOM. The saying and the first letter "L" certainly made it enticing. Thanks for all the designs.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Can't wait to get started on it.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
Oh that is so cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much, this is just gorgeous..you are so talented and so generous! Thanks for the chance to win.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the time and effort you put into providing these wonderful BOMs .
ReplyDeleteI have printed out the pattern and cannot wait to get started
I am wondering if you could post the amount of background fabric needed for all the blocks and I to want to know if 8" is the sewn finished size with a starting size of 8.5 inches. Sandi Washington state
