Valentine Hearts
There’s nothing like a SALE to start the New Year off. Just in case you didn’t get my newsletter this morning, Bunny Hill is having a sale! Everything on our website is 25% off from January 5th through January 9th! I apologize in advance if you place an order and don’t get a receipt attached with your confirmation. You will, I promise, get a receipt and 25% off when we ship your order. I put away the Christmas decorations and decided things looked a little bleak around here so I made a batch of Valentine hearts. One thing lead to another and soon I had a FREE heart pattern AND…

Bittersweet
Our house is filled to the brim with family now. I’ve had 2 of my granddaughters staying with me for the past 2 weeks and last night my son, his wife and Lily arrived from Germany. Every bed is taken, the dishwasher runs everyday, along with the washer and dryer. There are gifts to wrap and a house to clean, but these times are precious and I’m thankful for every minute. My house is decorated with simple things this year and my granddaughters helped with every decoration. We made photo tags of family members and mixed them with little woodland animals on the tree. It’s the perfect Christmas tree…

Rain, rain go away
It’s been pouring rain and the wind is howling at the door. It’s a less than subtle reminder that winter comes to all of us, ready or not. Roses drenched in rain, are still blooming in our yard, just waiting to dance in the wind with our Christmas lights. Who knew December would be here so quickly and with such force? We should have planned ahead, I told my husband, because it’s supposed to rain all weekend and we haven’t put up the lights yet. I caught him smiling as he watched the rain through the window. Ha! Just let him think he’s getting out of putting up…

Quilt Kits
If you received our newsletter this morning you know we have new kits available. Our new kits are so yummy we all want one, even me! I would love to get a kit in the mail, open it up and be able to start on another quilt. The thought of working slowly, without the pressure of a deadline just sounds delightful. Here’s our ABC quilt kit and on the bottom of the package are 20 fat quarters of the prettiest Winsdor Lane fabrics ever. :>) Inside the ABC kit we’ve included a Chenille needle. The wording on the quilt calls for 6 strands of embroidery floss and it’s not…

Kansas City Quilt Market
I’m home and it feels so good. Kansas City was a wonderful host but there’s no place like home. We spent 6 days in the Kansas City Convention Center in downtown Kansas City and I feel like I only know a teeny bit! It’s huge and goes on for several blocks. The downtown area is surrounded by tall buildings with many styles of architecture. Of course the old buildings are always my favorite. Sample Spree at any quilt market is a shopping frenzy. People line up hours in advance to get in. This was only the start of the line and it went on forever! Quilter’s can shop like no…

Dresden Progress
This week has been crazy. Too much to do and not enough time. I’m working on a new fabric line and it’s taking longer than expected. A deadline is looming and I’m crossing my fingers I get it off to Moda soon. I’ll be so happy! In the meantime everyone at Bunny Hill has been working on my Scrappy Plate quilt, helping to get it ready for the quilter. I can just hear you saying…hey that’s not fair…she has help! Let’s just say it’s a good thing. Machine applique has become my best friend and almost all of the plates have been appliqued by machine! If you follow my method…
