Dear Jill


Designer Jill Finley of Jillily Studio is fighting a tough battle against breast cancer and she is undergoing surgery today. Jill received a special package in the mail this week. Liz and Beth Hawkins of Lizzie B Cre8ive headed this project to have Jill's friends in the quilting industry make blocks to be put together in a lovely quilt for Jill. 

Jill received the quilt this week just before her surgery today. We wish Jill much love and luck. All the best to Jill and her family. Thank you to all who participated by sending a block in for this awesome quilt.

Have a great weekend.

Let's Get Quilting - April 13, 2015 Edition


Good Monday morning! It is time for another edition of Let's Get Quilting. This past weekend was the first time that it has felt like spring around here. Tell us what is your favorite sign of spring. Is it the warm weather? Do you notice flowers popping up everywhere? Do you like to fish? The lucky winner will win a bundle of Here Fishy Fishy by Heather Mulder Peterson of Anka's Treasures.


Meanwhile, make sure that you go to your local quilt shop to buy some of Heather's latest collection, Home For Harvest. This range will be on the quilt store shelves this month.


The colors are fall but are so very fresh. Pumpkins, leaves and acorns are incorporated into this fun fall collection. You can use these prints to make things like aprons and table runners for your home or use the panel to make a quick quilt. The pattern can be found on the Henry Glass website.
