Pat Sloan’s Radio goes to Quilt Market!

May 31, 2011 By Anne 290 Comments

I adore Pat Sloan. She’s made the quilting world so much fun by hosting her radio show every week. She brings many different talents into our homes and makes us feel like we’re sitting right there with her! American Patchwork and Quilting is now the sponsor of Pat’s show! Congratulations Pat on such a winning combination!

Pat was at International Quilt Market in Salt Lake City this year and I had the honor of being interviewed by her! Click on the photo, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the podcast with my name. You’ll hear me, Kimberly Jolly from Fat Quarter Shop, Sandy Klop of American Jane and Patty Young of modkid! You can sew away and listen to us talk…something we all love to do!

Now for some more fun! I promised a giveaway and here it is! You just might win some of my newest fabric line Puttin’ on the Ritz!

Just tell me what color of Puttin’ on the Ritz you’re dreaming about and you could win! One of these bundles could be on the way to you Friday morning!

Hope you enjoy the radio show! A big thank you to Pat Sloan!

Hugs,

Anne

Going to Sample Spree?

May 8, 2011 By Anne 24 Comments

You find this fabric in Salt Lake City this week. Puttin’ on the Ritz is debuting at Spring Market starting on Thursday night and bundles in pink, blue and gray just might be found on the sample spree tables. It will be in good company along with lots of other fabulous Moda bundles!

If you’re attending Quilt Market stop by the Bunny Hill booth #1225 to say hello and see my new things.

See my linen duvet cover made for princess! Soft cotton/linen that looks vintage and feels like heaven. Both little girls and big girls are going to love this one! If you’ve shopped for bedding lately you know there’s not much variety out there. Why not make your own? I’ll have a pattern soon to make it “sew” easy!

I’ll also have beautiful bedding for the littlest prince or princess in your life. Pink & gray or blue & gray I think you’ll love it! Decorate your nursery in Ritz style!

How about soft yummy pillow ticking! I love ticking and the decorator weight of this ticking is perfect. It’s not stiff, just soft and cuddly. Thank you Moda!

I even made my newest Petite lamb named “Lollipop” out of ticking!

I’m in love with Puttin’ on the Ritz! I’m going to use it in my own home to decorate a room. I’ll bring you along!

Bunny Hill will be closed this next week so I can attend International Quilt Market. Any orders will be filled after I get back.

While I’m gone I’ll post peeks of what Chelsea and Bitsy are so excited about!

Raining Cats & Dogs! Coming soon!

We might be sewing some of it in the Bunny Hill Booth!

I’ll take lots of pictures to share when I get back.

Hugs,

Anne

Designer Cat

April 1, 2011 By Anne 36 Comments

Excitement is running high this week at Bunny Hill! Puttin’ on the Ritz advance yardage has arrived!

I don’t know who’s more excited about the arrival me or Mooch! Mooch is really attracted to this fabric line and I think it might have something to do with the beautiful gray color. As soon as I cut up some little squares she was right there in the middle of everything!

Here she is daring me to move her…

This is a cat’s life at Bunny Hill!

Did you know Mooch can read?

It’s true! Here she is reading the words on the fabric!

My, I have a smart cat! She could be designing very soon.

Did I tease you enough with the pictures?

Have a great weekend everyone!

Hugs,

Anne

Moda News!

March 23, 2011 By Anne 16 Comments

I’m in the news today on the Moda blog and my sons are going to disown me. I promised I would never tell the sequin story! You know how moms are. They made Christmas ornaments when they were little and went door to door selling them. Opps, now I’m really in trouble! Shhh…maybe they don’t read my blog.

I Feel like I should be cleaning the studio and having everyone over for a visit! But wait! That would take some doing right now. We’re getting ready to sew up a storm at Bunny Hill and I guarantee the studio won’t be clean for weeks! Think of the threads, scraps and fabric you might find on the floor.

I’m excited that I found something to fill vintage basket by my desk…jelly rolls and bundles of Lily & Will. I’m even more excited to think it might be filled with Jelly Rolls of Puttin’ on The Ritz before too long. Can you believe another quilt market is just around the corner? I’ll be showing you my new fabric line soon! This is going to be an exciting market for a lot of designers. I can just feel it! Wish you could all come.

One of you asked me about Chelsea and Bitsy a few weeks ago and if Chelsea had lost any weight? They are both doing fine, but Chelsea has developed the strangest phobia. She hates it when I try and take her photo! Since I moved my desk she can walk completely around my computer and I’ll find her standing next to the monitor looking at me. All I have to do is grab my camera and you’d think I was punishing her. She hates it! I don’t use a flash so I can’t imagine what started this!

Here she is standing on top of my desk right in front of me. I picked up the camera and look at the expression on her face!

She hates it! Maybe it’s the weight thing. Do you think?

Back Soon I hope! I’m having trouble with my blog right now and I’m moving it to another server. Forgive me if any glitches come up. I’ll get them fixed as soon as I can.

Hugs,

Anne
