• Please pass the Pumpkin Pie

    We’ve spent the last few days making Pumpkin Pie kits here at Bunny Hill.  No calories in this pie even with all the yummy fabrics we’ve been cutting.   Here’s a picture of our pie slice… Doesn’t it look yummy? We’ve got stacks and stacks of Pumpkin Pie… …assembled and ready for baking! If you ordered a Pumpkin Pie kit we’re starting to ship them now. You’ll find these kits on my website, in stock and ready to ship.  The good news is that if you start to make your Pumpkin Pie quilt now, by the time it comes to bake the real thing you’ll be finished and ready to…

  • Pumpkin Pie on a Quilt

    Pumpkin Pie on a quilt?  It’s acceptable if it’s baked in a Moda Dottie green pie dish with at least one blackbird in the pie.  Oh, one more thing…you have to sing “Sing a Song of Sixpence” while you make this quilt.  If you don’t know the song better Google it. Pumpkin Pie is made from “Basics”! The quilt is made mostly from Moda Basics so you should easily be able to find the fabric!  I’ve put a color fabric guide inside the pattern and also on my website to make your shopping easy.   Wouldn’t it be fun to make this quilt and put your favorite pumpkin pie recipe on…

  • 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…

  • Henrietta Block Eight!

    I’ve posted block eight of Henrietta Whiskers a little early for my blog readers! Henrietta’s showing off more of her neighborhood this month.  Rumor has it that the people who live in this house feed Henrietta peanuts. And that sometimes Henrietta brings along a friend… or two… or three… …and they all “pig” out together! Good thing I didn’t put any peanuts on this quilt.  Imagine how many squirrels might have shown up! If you’ve been keeping up with the blocks, your quilt should look something like this… There’s only one more block and then you’ll be able to sew your quilt together!  That’s the part I love don’t you?…

  • Happy 4th!!!

    Happy 4th of July everyone!  Henrietta’s here a day early to help us celebrate.  I hope you have a bit of time this weekend to get started on block seven.  Two more blocks to go and then we’ll be onto the borders!  We’re so close to finishing!   Be sure to click on the “Sewing with Kids” tab at the top if you have a little free time this weekend to spend with your child.  The first project is up along with some suggestions on how to teach  kids to use the sewing machine.  If you have a child or a grandchild who wants to sew this is going to…

  • Just a few squirrely friends

    We all have a few squirrely friends don’t we?  Ha!  Right now all my friends are wondering if I consider them squirrely.  The dictionary defines squirrely (yes it’s slang) as being eccentric, flighty and maybe a bit odd. Think about this…Henrietta doesn’t see a thing wrong with being squirrely.  Most of her friends are squirrely and so this month I’m giving a new meaning to the word! squir-rel-y: -adjective, fun loving and full of joy.  Able to leap tall pumpkins in a single bound.   The perfect friend. Block Six:  Henrietta’s Squirrely Friends   We’re 2/3rds through the quilt with this block not counting the border…have you been keeping up? …
