Hey! Happy “LUCKY”
Friday!!!!! Today is the release of
BLOCK #4 of our Live Each Season BOM! So
of course, we are giving away KITS of this darling summer themed block over on our FB page! There is nothing like a cold glass of lemonade
and fresh picked strawberries! Both are
so refreshing on a hot summer’s day! We
are loving this BOM as well as the NEW Sweet Olde Summertime BOM! It is so fun to offer you exclusive projects
that are designed just for YOU!!! You
gals are just the best! SOOOO glad you
are loving the BOM’s too!!! Keep sharing
your progress! It always inspires
someone {including me!}
This week we had BIG BIG BIG things going on at the
Basin. Again, {sorry} it is a secret and
we can’t let anyone know until we get the word!
All I can say is that you gals are going LOVE it! It is something very special – I am just
tickled pink about it! So know I am
going to share it with you as soon as I can and we will make it a BIG BIG BIG BIG
deal for YOU all too…. so we can all enjoy it together!!!!!!!
Speaking of BIG deals!
You gals are always one of my FAV things to connect with during the
week! We love not only hearing from you
on Fridays {or over the weekend} but through your emails, calls, comments on
Instagram and all around! The best part
of my job is, and always will be, bringing you inspiration and enjoying my
journey with you all! I love hearing
your stories, your struggles & being able to brighten, even your hardest
days, through handwork! We are so
blessed to have one another!
Guess what else in now on the website? I just put the NEW April Basin WOOL Bundles
on there! The wool is flying off the
website as fast as we can get it out! We
have restocked some wool, too, as many of you have noticed and ordered! These SPRING wool bundles are so sweet! They definitely capture the softer side of
spring! We hope you enjoy them!
From now until mid-May we will be working on models for the
International Quilt Market! I wish we
were farther along – but you won’t believe the MAGIC we can make in a matter of
a few weeks! So be READY for some FUN
things coming very soon! I also received
the salesman sample from my fabric company! I am thinking that next week I FINALLY get to show
you it {and remember… there is a twist on it – that you ALL will
LOVEEEEEEEEEEEE}! I will double check –
but fingers crossed, we don’t have to wait any longer!!!!
On the home front, my daughter is deciding on which college
she will go to this weekend! She will either
be at the U of M here in Minneapolis or Iowa State in Ames. Fingers crossed she is staying local for her
momma!!! LOL! I think her cat, Oscar,
won’t be able to make it without her either!
They are too cute together! He
LOVES her! Either way, we support her
and if she ends up being in Iowa… shopping along the way will be a
bonus!!! She is also almost done with
all her volunteer hours as a National Honors Society member. Yesterday she volunteered at Feed My Starving
Children. That is one of her FAV places
to volunteer! Grace is patiently waiting
for swimming to get over so she can dye her hair! LOL! She is also trying to convince us to let her
get a mini fridge & microwave put in her room! She has big plans for good times with her
girlfriends! I love it! Growing up I remember wanting to put a water
fountain in my bedroom! Like mother,
like daughter! LOL! Just love them both
to pieces!
No big plans for Easter… I will be burning the midnight oil
doing taxes for BB. This is the last
year I will have to get the stuff ready… as I have a gal who started working
for me in January! YEEHAW!!!! I think we decided that we will be making
homemade pasties for Easter. George’s
dad taught me how to make them. It
starts with a triple homemade batch of pie crust dough. It is a labor of love and oh, so good! He made huge pasties – so, of course, I
followed suit! Two barely fit on a large
cookie sheet! I will try to post a pic
on Sunday! I hope you have a fantastic
Easter weekend and enjoy some delicious food, sweet desserts & make
memories with those you love!!! Be sure
to leave a comment over on our FB page for a chance to win a kit of block 4!!! It is so cute & kick of the first block
in our SUMMER ROW!!!!
