Exciting NEWS~!!!

Recently my aunt Kristin Andersen, from http://www.sistersandquilters.com/, was given the opportunity to design a quilt for Shannon Fabrics new "Lil Buckaroo" cuddle minky.  After they saw her design, they asked her to make a sample so they could publish it in the 2013 fall issue of "Quilt" magazine.  I was excited for the opportunity to quilt something that was going to be published, how cool is that?!  After pictures were taken for the magazine, they asked her if they could take the quilt as a sample to trade shows.  Yay, Kristin!!!  Kits are available exclusively on:
