Exciting News!

See these two "spunky chicks" in Ireland.. They have become new business partners! Have you ever purchased a "Remember When" quilt pattern? Well "Remember When" has become "Geoff's Mom".. Are you confused... don't be. Leslie Ison and Norma Whaley owned "Remember When".. but Leslie has decided it is time to retire. We are all great friends and Norma wants to keep designing and making patterns.... Soooo Norma has decided to become "Geoff's Mom" friend! I am so excited! The business is just taking off in leaps and bounds. We will be at Spring Quilt Market in May in Salt Lake City and we are also planning on going to Houston market in the fall. Please come and support us! Leslie will still be making quilts and spending time with her children and grand children. Plus she still plans on teaching with Norma.. all is good! Here is a couple of new patterns in the works... Aren't these journal covers great! They will be premiering at the "American Quilting" retreat on March 23 - 25th.


Please leave a comment and you will have a chance to win a pattern or two from the new "Geoff's Mom" ladies.. We will plan on picking a winner on Mar. 27, 2011... SPREAD THE WORD!!!

Giveaway!

Ok.. I am thinking about having a giveaway here shortly! This is something I have never done on my blog.. but I am willing to give it a try! I have some wonderful patterns and a few great pieces of fabrics to go with them. Are you interested? I will post pictures later this week with the details. (I need a little help from a few friends with suggestions on how to get this together) I am off to sew on a wonderful new project.. BOM sound familiar? Have a great day!

I did it this time!

Crooked.. but maybe you get the idea! I am taking this quilt to the machine quilter tomorrow! Woo Hoo! Lots of pieces..but a fun quilt to make!

Well... I did it!!!!! I am going to have a booth at Quilt Market in the Spring! It is kind of scary and I hope you will all stop by for a visit if you are in Salt Lake for Market!
How many of you have gone to market before? Any suggestions on how to make my booth appealing and get the buyers in???
Wish my luck! Geoff is making new pattern covers which are looking so great! I am going to be anouncing some new exciting things happening with Geoff's Mom Patterns.. soon! I can hardly wait! Life is good!
