Henrietta’s Big Party!
Can you believe this is the final block for Henrietta Whiskers? Henrietta’s excited and a little bit nervous too. It’s not everyday that a little squirrel gets to meet so many people! I don’t think either of us ever imagined she would be so popular. I’m giving you block nine and the final quilt a day in advance! If you’re spending this holiday weekend sewing, you might have time to finish the quilt and have it ready to hang for Fall!
Henrietta Whiskers Block Nine
Henrietta’s busy catching stars and Sophie’s helping!
And now that you’re finishing up your quilt (you are finishing aren’t you?) you’re probably wondering what I’ve done to that top and bottom strip! I’ve had your trust all year and you’ve followed me blindly so to speak, so I’m excited to finally show you the entire quilt. Click on the photo and it will enlarge it.
You’ll find the pattern for block nine along with the finishing instructions, by clicking on the free tab at the top of my blog.
…As We Come to the end of My Henrietta Block of the Month…
…I’ve been struggling trying to find a balance in my life between designing fabric, patterns, quilt markets, family, pets, traveling and oh yes, I forgot me! Block of the month quilts take so much time to create and I know you understand how crazy life can get. I’ve made the difficult decision that Henrietta will be my last free block of the month. I know I’ll be disappointing many of you but I hope you’ll understand. I have LOTS of fun things up my sleeve that I think you’ll enjoy so please don’t think the fun will end. New surprises are in the planning stages!
New things added to my website!
You’ll find new floss and notions under “What’s New” on my website. We are now carrying Cosmo Sparkles Floss and because we’ve gotten so many requests, for a limited time I’ve added Cosmo Seasons color #8041. It’s in stock now and ready to ship!
and…Help me clean our our sample room!
We are filled to the brim and need to make room so you’ll find some great buys on samples and quilts from our patterns! I just listed more on my website.

There is something wrong with the posts – on a couple of blogs, including this one, I try to comment on the fair post, but when I scroll up , it is like I am on the previous post! I tried again to comment on the correct post, but again, I am on the previous one.
Shasta
What wonderful prizes – very generous of you. But we already know you are generous with your gorgeous patterns. I agree with Chelsea, she definitely needs a quilt designed after her.
Jan Mueller
Great post! What a fun treat for all of us readers to be blessed with such fabulous designers each and every day! I love it! The cupcake pattern is adorable! Thank you! Can’t wait to make it!

Those dogs are so sweet. I really miss mine when I see how much fun you have with them. Love your cupcake as well., Sandi
Darcey Peters
What inspires me most when making a quilt is the recipient. I find it very easy to finish a quilt meant for someone else. However, when it comes to making something for myself, I find it very easy to put it on the backburner….you know, that ever growing ufo pile.
Thanks for the giveaway fun and keep up the good work with your beautiful blog.

Aster Cody
love the doggies! I have never heard of a dog that likes broccoli with butter, but that is really too cool. I love the cupcake banner too. Thanks for the chance to win.
Tam McBride
Broccoli with butter? And I thought my cat was weird eating tossed salad. I’m anxious to begin work on Henrietta since I downloaded the blocks each month. This blog and website are among my favorites which I return to often because they make me smile. Anne’s creativity is boundless.
Ellen Prinsen

Hi Anne,
thank you very much for the lovely muffin-patterns. The Jelly rolls and scraps are really beautiful.
Sorry for the short comment, but my english is not very good.
Greetings from Germany

I just want to thank you for the beautiful patterns you have shared these past years! I didn’t make the snowman one–for I live in a very tropical area and we don’t have much snow here. But I have loved making ‘Tisket/Tasket’ and ‘Henrietta.’ Your patterns are really fun to make. I’ve made the “Baltimore Bunny’ and am working on “The Night Before Christmas”. I have the “Rabbits love Redwork” to do! Guess I am a true fan! Your little grand-daughter is precious! Being a grandma is the best job! Take time to enjoy the special role and the things that are special to you!! That way you will continue to love what you do!
