INTRODUCING . . .

BETTE BUNNY!

Thank you all for your name suggestions--I loved them! Personally, Ester (or Esther) Bunny tickled me the most, but I finally settled on Bette Bunny because (1) it seemed to go well with Buckey Bunny and (2) it just seemed "right."

A few of you asked whether I was going to offer this wallhanging as a pattern. Yep, you guessed it! And not only am I introducing Bette Bunny with this post, but I'm also introducing a new line of patterns I'm calling "Kim's Little Adventures."

I think many of you know that for the past several months, I've been making small wallhangings for my office/desk at work that reflect the holidays and seasons. Because these are fairly fast and easy projects, I thought some of you might enjoy them too, so as I make these for myself throughout the year, I'll also write patterns that I'll offer for sale on Etsy.

I suspect most of these projects will use wool, although I've included in my directions instructions on how to make the quilts using cotton fabric instead of wool--and I'll try to do a little tutorial on my blog showing those steps just in case it's not clear. BUT--I think I'll also be putting together a limited number of kits for sale on Etsy, so if you really want to use wool and have none in your stash or at your local quilt shop, or if you want to use the same fabrics I did, you'll have an opportunity to purchase a kit which will include everything you need except the binding.

As I've said a couple times before, I don't mean to turn my blog into an advertisement, but I'm kind of excited about this new little project. My office staff has his work cut out for him tomorrow (Thursday) because he'll need to get copies made of the pattern and pick up photos for the covers. I'm aiming to get this pattern listed no later than Friday night, so if this is something you're interested in, check my Etsy store then, although I'll probably also make a small announcement here--because I just can't help myself!

Happy quilting!
