This girl is 16
It’s time for a Chelsea update. At 16, she’s officially the oldest Bunny Hill employee, and as I sit here watching her, I can’t believe she’s been with me for almost as long as I’ve been designing. I started my business 20 years ago, and I’m surprised I could even design before I got her! She’s been my daily partner while I work; she gives me advice, helps me pick out colors, and helps run my giveaways. Her view of the world is one I live by; Be friendly to everyone. Start every day with a walk around the park. Eat breakfast every day. Take naps when you’re tired and…

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, everyone! I absolutely love the first day of the year, don’t you? It always seems like a “free” day. One of those days when you can relax and fit in extra sewing time. I’m spending today working on a new Petite pattern for my next fabric line, and I’m going to sew more of my Blockheads 4 blocks together. I had hoped to have this one complete by the end of the year, but I got sidetracked on the little quilt you see below. You know how it is when you want to start a new project! Over the last few weeks, I’ve been making a new…

Sugarberry
If you crave a bit of Winter sweetness, Sugarberry is my next fabric line for Moda! The Moda reps are showing Sugarberry to quilt shops now, and you’ll be able to find it in April 2023! The colors are similar to The Flower Farm, but I like to refer to The Flower Farm as a “sweet” fabric and Sugarberry as a “pretty” fabric in style. Sugarberry is a line that works for almost any season. I’ve selected Christmas, but I can’t help but think of how pretty it would be for Valentine’s day or spring projects. Are you ready for some Sugarberry Fabric close-ups? These are the different…

The Flower Farm is here!
We’ve been waiting and waiting for The Flower Farm to arrive, and it’s finally here! You can find it at quilt shops, and of course, on our website, in beautiful shades of pink, red, cream, and stone; I hope you’re ready for some flower fun! If you’re a fat quarter bundle collector like me, make sure you pick up one of The Flower Farm bundles soon. These bundles are already sold out at Moda, and shops won’t be able to order more! Remember, a fat quarter bundle makes it easy to choose fabrics for a quilt. If you start with a bundle you love, you know the fabrics work well…

My sweet Tinkerbell
As most of you know, I adopt senior dogs, and I have to say it’s one of the most rewarding things in my life. When you bring an old dog into your family, you know their time with you will be shorter than with younger dogs, but you never really think about that. Yesterday I had to say goodbye to Tinkerbell. She spent the week being treated for an unknown illness, and we watched her progressively worsen each day. She had test after test, IV after IV, plasma, and ultrasounds. By yesterday she could no longer stand, eat or drink. Three different doctors could not figure out what was wrong…

BH4, Blocks 20, 21 & 22
Here are the next three Blockheads 4 blocks from my weekend catch-up sewing! I will confess that my brain is now a blockhead’s brain. I can only think and talk with words that include triangles, rectangles, or squares! #20 Stop-Go Block number 20 is brought to us from Stacy Lest Hsu. If you’re familiar with her designs, you know that this block represents her perfectly. Her fabrics and patterns delight children and parents all over the world! I’ve made quite a few myself for my grandkids. This block reminded me of red light, green light, the game so many of us played growing up! I jumped at the chance to…
