Seriously... I am SEW GLAD TO BE BACK!  I tried hard to get back in action once I returned from the 1.5 week vending/teaching trip to Utah, but I ended up crashing and getting some much need R & R & took the Holiday weekend off to catch up with the fam!  So thanks for your patience while you waited for the NEW Vintage Trucks thru the Year MAY AND.... The NEW Let it Snow BOM, Block 6!  I have put both of them on the website, as well as ALL 12 months of the NEW {MINI} Vintage Trucks thru the Year!  We have KITS available for ALL the NEW ITEMS!  YEEEEHAAAW!  So after you are finished reading here...

OK... We have a ton to catch up on!  First off, MARKET was amazing!  Our NEW line "Bringing Home the Tree" was a BIG HIT!  If you LOVE Christmas, snow globes, farm fresh trees, candy canes etc... you will fall in love with our new line of designs!  These designs will be available very soon!  I hope to get some up on the website next week for pre-order!  We are diligently working on getting all the patterns written, photo shoots done & of course, pattern printing!  I guarantee these new patterns will be worth the wait!

 

Jumping in here with the BIG NEWS before I get into much more....  We have 4 BIG things to share with you!

These new MINI Trucks are also on the website!  We have them as patterns & in kit form!

Back to market.... I also had a great time catching up with all the designers!  I will be working on getting posts/pics of them up on Instagram!  The shop owners were fantastic and are super excited to bring you some of our new line!  {We LOVE our shop owners too!!!}  We also enjoyed good food, desserts & laughs with many designers and their spouses!  One night there were 14 of us who went out!  Such good times!  I flew in Dawn & Kim to help out at the show!  They were AWESOME!  Next thing you knew the show was over, and GW was headed home with the trailer and I was on my way to Midway to teach at My Girlfriend's Quilt Shop Retreat with Alex from Aurifil & Pat Sloan!  Midway was beautiful, my students warmed my heart, the food was delish & I can't wait to return to their 2ND shop in LOGAN, Utah in August!  So if you missed me the first round... keep an eye out for the next class/trunk show!  Plus, those gals will spoil you!  You should see all the treats we got!!! 

 

SHOP TALK: 1.  The bathrooms are gutted, new pipes are in & cement is poured!  2.  We now have a porta potty outside to use! {We are roughing it! LOL!}  3.  We started moving into the NEW space!  We LOVE it!  Us gals had to unload thousands of pounds of new shelving etc off the truck!  {Yes, I did treat Dairy Queen after!!!!}  I am such a swell gal!!!  4.  I got in a TON of NEW goods from market!  I can't wait to get to it and put it on the website!  You are going to LOVE it!!!!  5.  We got upgrades on the computers and still have no access to the Info@buttermilkbasin.com email - so please bear with us!  6.  We are back to filling orders & cutting kits! LOL!  Some things never change here at the Basin!  But that is a very good thing!  We love it all!!!!!!
