Spring Was in the Air

 We were all loving the weather 

but

 we were also pretty worried about putting a crop into such dry conditions

This said it so well!!!


It was great to get some snow this week.


I was cleaning off the roof before it slid off and took out some dogs


Love my action shot?

Justin came out to help as this snow was so heavy!


Some one thinks Spring never let...

Sandals and socks...


It's a look :)

It was a nice surprise when all my backorders finally arrived!


But the package I was most excited about
 was
 my second box of batiks from Bali!!


Fabulous colors!


And the jelly rolls were beautiful too!


I hope you enjoyed the FaceBook Live

It is nothing with out viewers!!

We really appreciated you joining us!

If you missed it.... you can click the link here


It nearly had to be cancelled as my Camera man - Justin was testing bulls for a friend 
and
 with the storm, he made it home with only minutes to spare!

That or my husband, Arnold would have had a crash course on FB Live!

It's usually a circus around this farm 
and
of course... the cat and dog made their cameo that night!


Hope it was not too distracting!


Justin did a fabulous job with answering questions
and
doing closeup ups for all the requests!

I can't thank everyone enough  for their support!

We really felt the love!

I just might have to order a THIRD box!

It was pretty fun! 

We are hosting a pop up shop on Saturday, April 24th 

on the farm
with
 Gypsy Soul Fabrics and Terry Whitman(long armer)

It will be 1- 4 pm.

We want to keep everyone safe and socially distanced
so 
we ask that you call, email or text for a time slot for that day!

We have missed seeing people! 

All the orders have been packaged up from our Live Sale!

One quilter asked to have her purchase matched up with some fabrics.



Which then inspired me
to
try this pattern with some of these beautiful purple batiks

Geese in the Cabin by Creative Grids



I got busy cutting...


I followed the instructions....

I know.. Me...right??



Pulled the yardage for each cut.....



I was impressed with the amount of fabric left after finishing! 

Not too much or too little left!


Enough if I make a  mistake....maybe two!

I tried two blocks to see if I am going to like it....



Lots of possibilities for layout!


I think it's a go!!


Spring can arrive now...
