I am moving very fast right now trying to get ready for spring market. Lots of early morning hours and the days are becoming a blur. But this morning as I looked over at my newest block of the month coming together, I realized that it’s all worth it. I LOVE designing appliqué more than anything. What a great joy I get from seeing my drawings come to life in fabric.
Block one now sits on my cutting table waiting for the finishing appliqué and embroidery, and I’m almost done with the remainder of the blocks. I can’t wait to show you my version of “A Vintage Christmas”! The fabrics are wonderful and it’s been such a pleasure to design with them.
Today I’m working on a appliqué lamb for my quilt. Don’t worry, I’m still surrounded by bunnies in the studio, but I love lambs almost as much!
And in case you think I forgot, here’s the bunny for today…I received this beautiful rabbit card in the mail from Betty Duagherty thanking me for the free patterns. Isn’t it wonderful?
Have a great day everyone! Surround yourself with bunnies. It’s that time of year!
Hugs,
Anne
I absolutely love your quilt block! I wish I could get myself to pull myself out of the rut of hand quilting. The fabrics you’re using are fantastic and I’m eagerly awaiting more progress picks. I have a feeling you’re going to make me break!
Oh, Vintage Christmas looks wonderful!!! I can’t wait until it is ready for release!
Just wanted you to know that your fantastic bundle arrived safely today. Unfortunatly my e-mail is out of ordre due to harddisk failier. Go to my blog and you can have a full report!
I love that block!! Can’t wait to see the rest of them.
I love houses and the colors are fabulous.
Your new BOM looks gorgeous. I’ll be at quilt market in Pittsburg, so I can wait to see it in your booth!
Your basket BOM has inspired me to try applique. And I really like that little cottage you showed today.
Love, love, love the house block.
Oh, i love it!!!
WOW i absolutely adote your quilt block! I can’t wait to see it when its ready! Have a lovely merry happy day and love to you!
Beautiful! I love it!
I love Houses!!!!!!!! What range of fabrics are you using for the new BOM? are wonderful! kisses Anne
Your talent with design and fabric delights many people, including me. Thank you for sharing with us all. Your previous post fits me to a tee. I am having an egg hunt and family time at my house on Sunday and I have been feeling a sense of dread the past two week just thinking of all I have to get done, instead of looking forward to a time with my family. Thanks for the reminder!
Could not resist mentioning you in my blog today. Hey, it bunny season and I love all you do on their behalf. I’m going to share your free Bom – a Tisket, A Tasket- pattern with my quilt guild.
The house block is so sweet and so is the card. You know that she took the time to pick that one out for you with those bunnies on it.
Fabulous new block Anne. Can’t wait to see the whole thing.
Oh, I love the new house block. And the card is just precious!
I’ve been an ardent admirer of Bunny Hill Designs ever since I saw Rabbits Prefer Chocolate, but just now realized you have a newsletter and a blog.
And the new basket BOM is a delight!
Thanks so much for all the precious bunnies.

I know you must be super busy getting ready for Spring Market. The applique block for “A Vintage Christmas” is sooo sweet! I really like it! I know this will make a simply gorgeous quilt! I look forward to seeing it when you are finished. Have a wonderful Easter celebration with your family!
I just love your block. I’ve just completed a survey choosing Christmas cards and felt that “indifferent” was the best way of damning them with faint praise. I then clicked onto your blog.
I’m now looking forward to an early Christmas and doing this for a wallhanging or whatever size you’re planning. I’m glad it won’t be released for a while as I’ve got loads of things to finish before I start on Christmas, including practising my hand appliqué!
It’s lovely
My grandchildren (including a 16 yr old!) are coming over for an egg hunt on Sunday and all our local tourist attractions have them this weekend. They don’t do them for Grandma’s :(
Happy Easter to you and your family Anne and to all your “readers”
Oooo, I’m excited about seeing your new projects. I just now downloaded the May BOM, and can’t wait to get started on it! Thanks so much for sharing your gifts with us. :) hugs to you!! :)
I love the look of your new Vintage Christmas block. Can you tell us what fabric line you are using? Everything you design is wonderful.
Your new quilt block is lovely!! Can’t wait to see the rest of the blocks!!

Anne, I can't wait for Vintage Christmas, it looks lovely! I wanted to thank you for your wonderful pattern in the June American Patchwork & Quilting, I want to make it as a baby quilt (w/o buttons of course).
