Hello Everyone,
The New Year brings me to my computer then sewing room to create a new pattern. I wanted to combine my new Gentry's Mill fabric line with my Hearthstone line. This is just one block of the combination. Let me tell you I'm loving this new quilt design!
As I'm writing the pattern, I was thinking about including a page to help you keep track of the components as you make them. So, I'm asking for your input. Is this something you would like to see me include in my patterns?
In the comments, let me know if this page is something that would be beneficial to your quilting process to help keep you organized. This addition will add more pages to my patterns, and some of them are approaching the status of a novel!
On a personal note, Christmas is all packed away for another year. I love to decorate for Christmas, and I love having it stored away. Mr. Joe and I moved all of the furniture around in the great room, which really made him happy, NOT! I moved my desk area over by the window so I can create while watching the critters outside. I haven't seen anything large than a squirrel yet. I also don't see anything creeping by outside at 5am unless the bears press their nose against the window! Don't laugh, that has happened more than once.
Yesterday was my birthday and our middle son, his brand-new fiancé, and our grandson arrived to spend the day with us. We played cards until the cows came home, laughed and ate our way through the day. The kids told us they want to get married in the back yard at the cabin since they love the setting. We were thrilled until we thought of the yardwork that needs to be done! Maybe they could get married in the snow and we won't have to worry about it. Just follow me for more wedding ideas!

The "Trim to" wording is confusing for me. I often use finished and unfinished to clarify. What does the majority of your clientle prefer?
ReplyDeleteThat's a good question. I can put 'trim to the unfinished size'. What do you think?
ReplyDeleteI would love a progress sheet but I am not likely your typical costumer. I have two toddlers underfoot so no extra brainpower. Married in the snow would be stunning! I married in August because that was necessary for my FIL to attend. The heat was brutal but marriage is about family, no?
ReplyDeleteYour brainpower will return when your toddlers reach 21......I promise! I'm really liking the snow idea the more I think about it.
ReplyDeleteI think the checklist is a great idea! It’t like having a recipe to double everything. Congrats on the wedding in your future!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Lynn. Sounds like you had a beautiful day.
