I hope you are all having a great summer….I am trying to do some fun stuff along with all the deadlines I have to make!!!

I have been to SeaWorld in SanDiego…IMG_2684I have been hanging out at the Lakehouse with my Family..and friends and trying to see as many Sunsets as I can..IMG_2768IMG_2761IMG_2749I have been teaching ALOT also…At the WI studio..IMG_2740IMG_2745IMG_2743IMG_2744I forgot to take pics of the 2 Day Crazy Mat class…sorry Ladies…

I also want to share some of the samples that were brought in to the CA shop over our Grand Opening!!!

Here is Linda’s Timeless Rose quilt…IMG_2665and then we have Marsha’s Dashing Through the Snow…IMG_2666then some wool pumpkins on Midnight Harvest made by Cindy…IMG_2670It is so awesome when I teach a class and then the next time I’m at the shop someone brings in their finished project..here is Trina and her sample from our Punchneedle class…IMG_2671Then Jo shared a couple of things…little Thimble quilt…see how she placed her colored thimbles?…along with a SEW pincushion..IMG_2664Again…so much going on…I’m stitching ALL the BOW’s.  Both from the WI shop and the Little Bow Ties from the CA shop..IMG_2797 IMG_2833IMG_2821

We also are planning a wedding for the end of summer for these two…I think they were enamored with ‘little man” and want one of their own even more now!!!IMG_2796also last but not least I finished the FREEBIE…I will show it as soon as they get it on the website…lol…so coming soon!  Enjoy the nice weather and get those BOW fused down or cut if you are doing the pieced one…and then when you have little moments of time you can use it well!  Make the best of everyday….and STITCH!  LB

I live on a lake in beautiful Butte Des Morts, WI. I have three sons: Lance (forever 29), Luke 33, Jake 32, and two grand-babies, Little Man and O-Bug. I've been married to the love of my life Nick, since 1998 when we started our crazy adventure together! I am a quilter, rugger, and gardener. I also love to cook when I get the chance. Thanks for visiting and supporting Primitive Gathering Quilt Shop where I try to bring you the best Moda fabrics and wool projects anywhere!

  1. What pattern is the one the ladies are working on with the watering can and flowers? I think that is really nice. Thank you, Julie Goedeke

  2. My summer is off to a wonderful start with a trip to Kansas City, KS for the quilt show. A big highlight was meeting Jessica in person. She is always so helpful when I call with an order or question. Took a second to register with me that Jessica (always check out name tags) was there to help me. I was so excited to meet her that I may have yelled, “Jessica”. Big hugs and a quick visit before I finished finding many goodies and telling friends that Jessica will help you. Then, I got to refer others throughout the show to do their shopping with her.
    Think your next store should be in Kanas.

  3. Baby Jace is just precious! He is really growing. Love seeing all of the other pictures too.

  7. Should plan a San Antonio trip. We have Sea World. Can’t wait to see you on the cruise. Enjoy the baby. Best part of life.

  8. Love the sunset!
    Oh, cute, cute baby face!
    A wedding? Happy day! Congrats! You have a very busy summer, lady.
    Wonderful stitching on that center flower of the wool block.
    Gorgeous moth–the toad, not so much. : )

  9. Good to hear that with all your work you are still able to find some time to enjoy the lake house. Beautiful pic. Hope to visit your Menasha store next month when I get up to Wisconsin to visit family.

  10. I loved your “Working With Wool” class! I have everything blanket stitched and am working on the vines…it’s such a cute runner. Thanks for sharing your art.
    Enjoy your summer,
    Leanne

  11. Lisa, I just left the Vermont Quilt Festival and this quilt in the antique section looked like one you would love. It was absolutely wonderful. The squares were less than an inch! It just twinkled.

  12. So glad you are able to enjoy the lake and some free time during the summer. You have such a busy schedule and deadlines that I’m sure you cherish every free time moment with family. Also glad that you are still making the beautiful designs for us. The summer block of the week is absolutely awesome. Looking forward to seeing you in August at Cousins in Bellaire.
