Thanks for stopping by my happy corner of internet land to catch up with what has been going on in the world of Modern Barn Blocks. Here you'll hear the latest on what has been going on behind the scenes at Put a Quilt on It as well as links and photos for some other things I have been feeling and loving these past few weeks.
How I'm feeling:
Stoked! Several months ago I received word that one of our wholesale customers was selected by Better Homes and Gardens to be featured in the massive semi-annual publication Quilt Sampler as one of the nation's top shops! It was such a huge honor for the shop to be chosen and photographed for this magazine. I have seen a sneak peek at a couple of the photos and I'm thrilled to see a handful of some of our favorite barn blocks on display at the shop. If you're anywhere near Erie, Colorado, be sure to stop in to A Quilter's Corner. They have a fun atmosphere and I'm sure you'll agree with BH&G that they are indeed a top shop. ***Just added - you can watch a little behind the scenes video interview with Marci here. Quilt Sampler magazine should hit newsstands on May 15.***
What I'm up to:
My daughter's 4th birthday was last week and I am finally recovering from all things pink and sparkly and princess. We like to have her birthday parties at our home, but it is always so much more work to prepare, decorate and cook for everyone than I remember. My sewing always takes a back seat when special occasions come up, but I'm happy that she had a great day celebrating with her close friends and family.
Barn Block latest:
We finally listed the Sedona block on the shop! Get your order in quick because this was a limited edition print and a small number are left. Two of our most popular blocks (this one and this one) have just recently sold out!
Did you see the adorable kids play house with our mini barn block? After seeing this photo, I immediately went and added some mini barn blocks to our kids' play structure.
Under the needle:
My latest baby quilt is done! I've been working on the Thimble Blossoms Patchwork Sky quilt to give as a gift. It is finally all quilted and the binding has been attached. Now all that's left to do is get a good photo before I give it away!
Stuff I love:
