Had to share.....

I just had to share Kathy's, from Florida,  Block Party quilt.

This quilt pattern was born after the pieced blocks were made for

a special project for cancer awareness.  It represents the houses in all the neighborhoods around the globe that helped with this project.

You can see pictures of those quilts on my website.

I am so very proud of everyone that made this version.

It is a lot of piecing, but look at the fun result.

Kathy finished her quilt at the Old Green Cupboard retreat in

Jacksonville, Florida.

She had lots of encouragement from all the gals attending.

Kathy you did a wonderful job!

thanks so much for sharing your quilt with all of us.

MORE WABBITS

The wabbits keep multiplying.....and I'm excited to share the newest bunch!  Sharon Paladino from Nebraska sent me a picture of her WABBITS made into a 20 inch pillow that is gracing her couch for the Easter season. 

You did a great job Sharon and Thanks so much for sharing a picture with all of us.

Stars on a Tin Roof

I am always excited to receive pictures from others that have made something from my pattern line.  Two friends, Janice Chang and Ginny Sage both made Stars on a Tin Roof and I couldn't wait to share how different each of them are.   Janice love working with Batiks and Ginny likes more a primitive style.  What's fun is that any pattern can be made into any fabric that makes us the happiest. 

They both turned out lovely and I'm so happy you shared pictures with all of us.

MARCH MADNESS of another kind....

It's hard to believe it's March already.  I hope you are keeping up with how fast everything is happening!  The Easter bunny will be here before we know it!  DO YOU HAVE YOUR WABBITS made? I'd love to share pictures if you send me some!

Happy Birthday to all the March gals and guys...........reporting in today who the March birthday winner is:

CONGRATULATIONS TO:

DIANE McCANN

I love getting pictures.....

Angela Brady of Homespun Gatherings in Ash, NC sent me some pictures to share with everyone.   She's been a busy gal..

Top picture is A Little Porch Time (She put her dog by the watering can and his paws on the left hand side...it's so much fun to see everyone personalize this quilt to make it their own!) and on the left is May Baskets.  The bottom picture is of Aunt Ree's Raspberry Jam and on the left The Bundling Board. 

Love them all Angela!  Thanks so much for sharing with us.
