AND...... This little email and photo made my week!

Lorna, I wanted to send this quick photo along to you to add to your Let’s Bee Social, as I finished this top yesterday, and will get it finished this week and sent off for our newest little great-nephew. It was an easy pattern, and took longer to cut the pieces than to sew it together! I will be ordering more this week, and there has been a rash of new babies in our family. Thanks for such a clearly written pattern, and Canadian, to boot! Jill in Calgary/Phoenix

Let's Bee Social #238

Welcome to the Let's Bee Social!

Today I am sharing some good news. It is finally happening again....


Rainbow Crocodiles 66" x 75"


Welcome BACK!

Back in the saddle that is....



It seems I have finally broken through the "quilt block" (something like a writer's block, but for quilter's it's called a quilt block) I was dealing with since we relocated. I was attempting to start from scratch with blank pages of good old graph paper. But there were no ideas forming and the lines on the paper could not come unless they were formed in my mind first. And my mind has been blanked out for a while now. So....



Rainbow Crocodiles 38" x 44"


I went back to what I had most recently had success with, the Giraffes in a Row, and analyzed what was it that made this pattern appealing. The rainbow. 

So I applied that rainbow theme to a couple of already designed patterns and came up with the Rainbow Crocodiles and Rainbow Lovebirds remakes.




Rainbow Love Birds 40" x 52"



Rainbow Love Birds 14" x 38"





This week you can find the Rainbow Crocodile pattern here in my shop listed for half price. No coupon code required!


This week you can also find the Rainbow Love Birds pattern here in my shop listed for half price. No coupon code required!

Let's Bee Social #237

Welcome to the Let's Bee Social!


You may be familiar with the phrase, "A day late and a dollar short". Well around here things in my life have been not so scheduled, to put it mildly. And I noticed that for the past two weeks the Let's Bee Social post has been a day early. That means I should also be two dollars ahead!!! Yay!!!

Today I want to thank you all for hanging in with me as I have transitioned from my old life to my new and improved one. It's taken time for me to feel right. And to feel creative again. I think creativity is born out of happiness. And then being creative causes a feeling of happiness. So it comes full circle. And I think I am finally back in the loop!

I have been amazed by and greatly appreciate both your emotional support through messages and emails and financial support through pattern and quilt purchases. Without you guys.... I never would have made it. For reals my quilty peeps. You make me wanna cry.



Today I am sharing this sweet little Giraffes in a Row quilt top made by Tina. She has an Etsy shop called 5LittleToes and makes personalized embroidered items for sale. Isn't this simply adorable?

















This week you can find the Giraffes in a Row pattern here in my shop.
