Tis' the Season... It's LUCKY" Friday Holiday edition!!  I'm wanting nothing more then to "make it merry" for some of my amazing bb peeps!!  This week, I have the NEW Winter Simply Vintage magazine & the most gorgeous Holiday colored wool bundle up for grabs over on our Facebook page!  Both of these, along with NEW Kits & Patterns are NOW on the website under Shop Online, NEW! Patterns & Kits!  Quantities are limited!  Oh- I also kitted up around 24 more Truck Full of Joy kits as I know many of you are waiting for those!!!  The Barn Event Snowman Heart {Exclusive} is also available as a kit on the website!  Head over there for a Jolly Ol' time!!!  www.buttermilkbasin.com

This week we were "happy little elves" at the shop!  We were excited to bundle up patterns & kits to be given as gifts!  We even had husbands, daughters & friends ordering for gifts!  Talk about the perfect gift!!!  I'd LOVE to have my sock filled up with patterns & wool!!!!! 🎄🎄🎄

On the home front... No "Holiday Magic" has happened YET this week!No elves have baked, decorated or wrapped... The only action here seems to be deliveries left at the door, cats playing around the tree & messes made in the kitchen, while I'm at work!  Starting after work {today} I will start decking the halls!!!  Better late, then never!  Next year- I am starting in July!!!!  OR I could just keep my decorations up all year long!!!! 😂😂😂 What do you think?!?!

Oh...  I have exciting NEWS!  Today I rented two spaces!  One will be for.... MARK your CALENDARS... An {After Market Party}!  Each spring we design & exhibit at the International Quilt Market!  This year we plan on sharing that excitement with you!  We will have a "pop up shop" here in the Twin Cities right after market!  We will have make it take its and much more!   

Then we rented a NEW space for the {BARN} Event!  I will be switching the name, because it will not be in a barn this year {unless I find one to buy between now & then}!!!  It will still be over the top & amazing (with new fun things added) and the new location is awesome!  It is right here, close to the shop!  That also means it will only be about 20-25 minutes from the airport for those of you who fly in!  And there are hotels, food & shopping galore here in the Twin Cities!  We have so many new ideas & concepts for this event!  I can't wait!  If you have any "new name" suggestions... Let me know!  

Ok... One more thing!  I loved all the comments & suggestions last week about the new Mystery project for next year!  So many great ideas... I'm keeping them all in mind!  I have decided on the project!  The funny part... It was my husband's idea!  {I hate to admit it!!!! Lol}  I LOVE the idea and I am thrilled to be able to offer it to you VERY SOON!!!  So much fun & excitement going on here at the Basin, I can hardly stand it gals!!!!  Can I mention again how much I love YOU all & love what I do!!!!  Make it a merry & bright weekend!  Don't forget to comment on our FB page!  I want you to win these goodies to put in your sock!!!!!!!  HO, HO, HO...

This week was a great "catch up" week from being gone last week teaching in Arkansas!  It was a huge week for barn sign ups, selling goods up at the Country Loft {189 people there the one day while I was restocking}!!!  ....getting back to designing and working on class projects!  What a fun week!  

I can't believe how much I miss designing and stitching!  I wish I could do that all day, every day!  Maybe one you of can run the company for me so I can make that happen!!!!!! Lol!!!  Heck, I'd settle for a weekend of being part of your retreat!  I know you gals know how to have fun, cook/bake & stay up late creating!!!!   Wouldn't that be a blast???  I better get my road map out!!!!!!!!

This week I also got in new goods for the barn event {and ordered more}!  I have tons of new hand dyed wool we're bundling for the event- I know you'll just love it!  I also got in vintage reproduction pieces, Halloween goods, candles, patterns and more!  I'm also working on new designs to be released at the barn event!  Things are coming together!  Can't believe it is next month!!!!!!  Wowza!!!  Time flies!

This week was also pretty quiet on the home front!  No exciting news!  But I did enjoy some simple joys like fresh Colorado Peaches from neighbor Mary, hitting the movie Paper Towns with the fam and enjoyed a parade this evening in the rain!!!  It was nice to chillax!!!!

This weekend we switch back to wedding mode for our nephew and his wife!  I did get the invites done and they mailed them!  {They are creative & lovely!}.  Then Saturday my husband is hosting the bachelor party.  Luckily, we have a great nephew..,so it will be filled with a day of family, friends & memory making!  They will be starting off with a couple rounds of golf, hitting the horse races and then staying at the casino!  In the meantime, the girls and I will be hitting the dinner boat cruise portion of the bachelorette party only!  I'm going to pass on the rest... and let the young ones party like "rock stars"!!! Lol!  Maybe the girls and I will go crazy & cap off the evening with a diet iced soda from McD's on the way home!  Hahaha!!!!!!!!
