Happy "LUCKY" Friday! Today we are giving away kits of the NEW
MARCH HEXI Mat over on our FB page! We know you all have
been waiting for the release of this pattern/kit as well as our companion
project, Hexi "WORD" Door Greeter March! These were SOO fun to design! I know many of us don't have much décor for
St. Patty's Day… so these will be great pieces to make and enjoy!!!! Don't forget… next weekend we will have more
March "themed" projects too, as we celebrate St. Patty's Day at the
shop and ONLINE!


I hear many of you have missed my posts over the last couple
of weeks! You know I LOVE YOU
guys!!! I have missed you too!!!! As many of you know, I am also a momma to two
beautiful girls…. Hannah & Gracie!
And… since Han is graduating, I am making sure I enjoy these last few
months with her before she leaves the nest!
It is bittersweet! It seemed most
of my time over the last two weeks was spent with them! For starters, Gracie turned 15 and took her
drivers written test on Monday & passed!!!!
{Now I have 2 girls with permits!
Double the worry!} Grace also had
her dance banquet, where she lettered as a Freshman & received a few
awards! She also needed help with a senior
board for her "big sister" in dance and is now Lacrosse has started! Hannah has kept me the busiest with robotics,
appointments, reveal nights, orchestra & college stuff!! LOL! She just found out she got into the University
or MN, as well as, Iowa State. We have
been getting the ducks in a row for college and started to think about her grad
party! And yes, I am also working on the
house! I totally need to STOP watching
Joanna! Now I am in the process of
making a wood wall! Say what? LOL! Last
weekend Hannah's team had their 1st robotics practice comp and today started
their 1st "real" regional competition! So I am writing this from the hotel room in
Duluth, MN! We can't wait to watch them today
and Saturday!

Of course, the shop has been keeping me busy too! We are knee deep in spring designs! In the next two weeks you will see a lot of
new chicks, bunnies, tulips and of course, new wool bundles! We
also have finally received fabric to offer a SMALLER amount of kits then we had
hoped for - for our Bringing Home the
Tree BOM! Starting now, we will be
offering this as a BOM. Each month, we
will release the kits for the next block, ending with a finishing kit! You will receive the pattern for that block
and the kit each month. We know many of
you have struggled with getting the same color palette or "look" of
our quilt… so we are THRILLED to make this happen for you! You can order it online under the NEW! NEW!
NEW! category! We would LOVE to offer
MORE kits, but we just can't get enough of the woven fabrics to make it
happen! That is why we have had to wait
soooo long to start this BOM! It has
been a struggle to get supplies lately….
FABRIC LINE! I can
finally say that today I sent the last package off to Henry Glass for my fabric
line! YIPPEE! My work is complete! My panel turned out cooler then I had
expected! {Happy dance!} I can also let you know that it will be available
to order at spring market, in May! It
will hit the shops by fall! It is very
different then my last line! I think you
all will be pleasantly surprised! Of,
course, it still has some great prints that I know you will love! There is a bit more to this line, but I am
not allowed to share it until market with you!
I am so sorry! I guarantee you
will LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
