• I’m Thankful for…

    I’m thankful for all of you this Thanksgiving day!  Thank you to each and every one of you who read my blog and make my designs.  I am so grateful to have you in my life. As I look back through photos you’ve sent over the past year, I’m amazed at what you do and how creative you are as quilters! Please enjoy these photos from 2009, A Tisket A Tasket! Enjoy even more photos on my Flickr group! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  I can’t wait to see what you do with Snowbound! Hugs, Anne

  • Quiltaid USA

    One person can make a difference in the world.  I believe that.  It becomes easier to make that difference if you join people together as a group.   And when that group is made up of quilters need I say more? Please join me, 11 other designers, 6 shops,  Moda Fabrics, and Presencia Threads  as we come together for charity.  If you haven’t heard about Quiltaid USA, you’ll be hearing about it soon. Maybe you saw this ad in American Patchwork and Quilting last month? The theme:  From Heart to Home.  Moda provided the fabric and Presencia provided the pearl cotton for embroidery.  The 12 designers (6 Australian and 6…

  • Fall Quilt Market

    The only thing I don’t like about Fall market is the timing.  It always seems to fall over Halloween and many of us don’t get to see our kids or grand-kids dressed in all their glory.  Of course at Moda they try and make us feel like family, so we had some trick or treating going on right at market! Debbie, (chief of all things patterns) was so cute.  There I was telling her how I’d have everything ready early for spring market and she just cracked up laughing! She threatens me every year because I’m late getting things to her, but even dressed up like a witch she’s really…

  • Lily & Will in a Magazine!

    It amazes me to see other people designing with my fabric!  When I see the creativity I’m amazed!   Just look at what I found! Lily & Will in pink & brown!  There’s that yummy pink satin ruffle around the edge! Or maybe you prefer green and brown?  I love the way this design falls into place! And blue and brown?  The use of the stripe in the border just amazes me! These quilts are featured in the December/January issue of Quick Quilts and Cabbage Rose Quilt Shop is selling the kits!  If you want one make sure you order it now.  Kits are always limited in supply. Happy Tuesday…

  • What’s on the back of your quilt?

    Do you remember this photo?  Many of you were trying to figure out how I was going to use the alphabet panel you see in the background in my quilt.  Just so happens this panel comes in red, blue and gray. I fell in love with the red and here’s what I did with it! It’s been stitched into the back of my quilt The Night Before Christmas! You can have a panel on your quilt too! You’ll have to buy a panel of course and some fabric to go around it.  Choose your favorite color!  I’ve included instructions and measurements inside the pattern as an option! While I was…

  • Snowbound Block Eight!

    Block eight is here!   Another month has gone by and now Mr. August is arriving in a wagon.  As you can see my “Snowbound” is quilted and ready for Christmas!  Yours will be too in no time at all! I hope you’ve been working on your Irish Chain blocks and assembling your quilt by rows so you can see it coming together! Tell me where the year has gone?  Did you notice it flying by?  Only four more snowbound blocks left, can you believe it?   We’ll be decorating for Christmas before you know it! If you received my newsletter this morning you know it’s “I Love My Pet” month at Bunny Hill!  Email or…
