Hi !

I seem to have lost track of time! Does that ever happen to you? I had two back to back business trips the first two weeks in January and almost ALL the Quilting stopped.

Luckily I got my articles out and I was on Facebook at my Group all the time chatting (Did you join yet?) but the newsletter didn't get written. And VERY little quilting happened.

I don't usually travel in January. So that means it's often when the businesses I work with ask me to visit to do a project! At the end I'll tell you about one of my trips.

While away I dida Facebook Live to show you 'behind the scenes' taping at Babylock & did a little tutorial! The camera guy started out showing you the monitor he watches, then switched over to where I was sitting.

Quilt Planners & Calendars!

January is Planning month! It's also organization month for me. I had questions on planners.. so here is the scoop...

There are 2 types of planners. One is just for quilts, and the other is a 'Mega Quilt planner' with a calendar, magazine, etc. You can click through to each and watch the videos at the end to see which suits you!

BUY a Quilt PLANNER designed by Quilters for Quilters!

What a FUN First block for the Heartland Heritage Calendar from my friends Amy & Heather.

Travel & things to come!

This should start out as "it was a bitterly cold night...." (can you tell I like to read mysteries?)

Only hours in 2018 I was flying out to the Baby Lock offices in St. Louis where the temps were so bitter cold. Lucky for me the staff is AMAZING and they picked me up & dropped me off door to door. I don't have clothing for this type of weather!

While there we managed to do an incredible amount of work, maybe it was to keep warm! I did photo shoots and we filmed a ton of videos. I am using the Baby Lock Crescendo for all of it. If you are looking for a new machine I hope you'll visit your Baby Lock dealer & at the next show you go to test drive the Crescendo or the Destiny II! They have a lot of other machines you might want to look at. I also taped a whole talk show while there, that will air in February!

So be sure you are at my Facebook group as that is where I chat several times a day and will be doing a lot more facebook lives in 2018!

Thank you for being part of my community and supporting my small family owned business, it means a lot to me and to Gregg that you open my emails, use my links, sew along, and read about my projects..you are the BEST!!!!!!!!!!
