Wow Mary and Connie, the trunk show and your new book are fantastic.
I don’t have a doggie anymore but I could sure adapt that to my friends dogs and give to them. Making the doggie wallhanging(s) would make a great fundraiser for your rescue efforts.

Good to see a new take on older patterns; it helps to open my mind to other possibilities & combinations to use my own hoard of fabric! I can see parts of your “Candy Mountain” pattern in some of the blocks. Thanks for the reminder to think outside the box once in a while!

Love the book. love the quilts. Honestly, I don’t know when the two of you find time to design, make, quilt and produce a book of patterns. Your energy and productivity is mystifying. I just think of all the other things you are involved in, take care of, and manage. I feel like such a sloth. Congratulations on another wonderful book I can acquire and hope I could possibly make one or two of these gems.

Love, love, love this book, Mary and Connie. I have most of your books I think, and this one is, as usual, bright as a new penny. You are so creative and bring fun to my house all the time. My order for this book will be at the top of list.
I look forward to your latest news in my email, and I must admit they bring lots of humor, sometimes ahas, sometimes head shakes in agreement, and a thought of “How does she do it all?” You have a big heart, Mary, and we are all lucky to have you in our world, especiallly the animals. Thanks always, and yea for the new book.

Mary,
Yes, dealing with the rehab of the house in MN took about 7 months longer than I anticipated. Hubby is certainly glad I’m back and I think my daughter is very happy to have her house to herself again.
I’ve followed you and Connie for years, including one weekend retreat and many, many trips to Iowa shopping and just enjoying the creativity you inspired. I guess I’ve never associated “dark and primitive” with you two. Primitive, yes, but not dark.
