Happy March!

Hey!


Sorry I have not posted anything lately....  I do think about you readers - but need another "mini" me!  There is never enough time in the day to get even half of what I need to get done!!!  This week will be interesting with the girls on spring break!  (Lucky for me my mom is staying with us for awhile!!) Thanks mom ;-)!


Well - I completely missed St. Patty's Day!  How did that happen?  Could it be that I am knee deep in prepping and designing for quilt market?  


There is good news though... we have 5 patterns complete and a zillion more to go!  They are turning out great!  We think you will enjoy our new line....


Over the last week mom and I have been hunting high and low for the perfect backdrop fabric.  Well...  today was the "jackpot" day!  Whew!!!!  40 yards of fabric and numerous quilt stores later!  Have you ever tried to locate 40 yards of one fabric within the state?  (Maybe next time I will think about that prior to designing a new line!!!)  :-)  We sure did have a fun time shopping our way around the quilt shops though... not to mention buying numerous yards of fabric!!!  (And maybe a pattern or two, new chalk pencils and of course, new stitching needles!!!)


Anyway - better cut this short as tomorrow Jodi will be meeting me at the studio early to get another quilt finished up.  Our hope is to bring 2 quilts to the quilter on Wednesday.  Wish us luck!  


Have a great week!  (PS - it was 65 here today...  the snow in my yard is almost gone!!!  Whohoo!)

Valentine Party Pics

Hey!


Just wanted to show you some pics of from the Valentine Party at the studio.  You should really come and experience one of our parties...  We have a blast!


I did forgot to take some pics of what we swapped.  However, I received the coolest felted wool heart pin!  It was a wonderful day spent with some creative gals!




(PS - Did I mention we had the most amazing frosted sugar cookies ever????)  :-)

Fundraiser for the Arts

Hey Everyone!


This past weekend we were fortunate to participate and sponsor a table at a very special fundraiser.  It was a Fundraiser for the Arts.  As many of you know, I am very passionate about the arts and have two little gals in elementary school. I would be just heart broken if they were unable to participate & experience the arts.  Because of events like this one, we were able to raise a fair amount of money... as well as provide scholarships for local students. 


Our table scape was "Create Your Journey"!   As an artist, my work and my life is a creative journey.... 


Enjoy...Stacy!

Valentine's Party at School!

Hey Everyone!


If you are planning on heading to the studio today... I will be sneaking out shortly before 2:00PM.  I am going to spend the afternoon with the girls at their Valentine's Day Parties at school!  I am so excited!  The boxes are made, the treats are packaged up and the anticipation is building!  I can almost smell the chocolate!!!!


This year I was able to make their Valentine's Day cards for them to hand out.  Last year I had a custom card made from our family photographer.  It was fun to create something myself, especially for them.  I created them on the computer and printed them off.  Quick and easy and oh so cute!!  (You can ask the gals who have been stopping by at the studio - they just love it!)  I have one framed here at the studio!


Better run and finish up kitting the designs for the Valentine's Day party tomorrow at the studio....  I will try to post pics this weekend of the party!  It is going to be a blast!!!!  (I can't wait to see what my swap partner will be giving me!!!)


Later -

Trio of Woolen Mittens (Punched!)




How cool is this!


Meet Brenda... She is a swell gal & carries our line in her shop Pumpkin Patch Primitives.  


She just learned how to rug punch.  She used our pattern, Trio of Woolen Mittens and instead of wool appliqueing the design, she punched it!  I think it turned out super cool!  To read more about her and her shop ... go her blog:  http://pumpkinpatchprimitivequiltshoppe.blogspot.com  


Nice Job Brenda!!!  :-)
