Happy May Day to all!

This month Bona Lisa is showing off her accessories!

These "Witch Necessities" are a must for all good little witches!

You can find the pattern HERE free for this month only.

Carol treated us to her " Don't touch the Hats" block. You can read more on her blog post

HERE

How does our Bona Lisa's Sweater Emporium BOM work? 

It runs from January 1st through August 31st. 

All block releases happen on the first day of each month. They can be conveniently found on our Cackling Stitches Facebook page HERE.

 They will be pinned under the "Featured" tab to make them easy to locate.

On the first day of each month, we release a block pattern (sometimes it's more than one)

 that is free for the entire calendar month. After that, those blocks go into our individual 

ETSY shops where you can purchase them for $2 each. 

If you just can't wait, the entire pattern can be purchased in my ETSY shop for $15.

We hope you appreciate the time we put into creating this BOM and understand that we keep

 the costs to a minimum for you. We ask that you respect our copyrights and do not share the 

pattern with others. You're welcome to direct your friends to our Cackling Stitches Group 

Facebook or any of our ETSY shops so they can get their own patterns.

You can choose to make the entire quilt, or just a wall hanging, the choice is yours! Either way, you will be able to collect many different "Sweaters" throughout the BOM, for your sweet skeleton.  If you are making your sweaters like paper doll clothes, just fuse the sweaters onto a piece of felt. If you have ever wanted to become a designer, give it a try and design and share a sweater with us. We can't wait to see what you dream up.

June Blog Hop Announcement

Challenge: Angry birds, crazy birds, whimsical birds, or flying geese. If it’s a bird, this is their time to show their colors!

I know it sounds like a bird brain idea, but if you have anything birds in mind, join us for the hop.

Don't be shy, we all love seeing what each other has cooking in their sewing rooms!

Remember you don't have to have a blog to join in. Instagram and Facebook pages are welcome!

April Showers Blog Hop Day 4

Here we are...already on our last day of the hop.

Where has the week gone?

I don't know about you, but my list of things to do, just keeps growing.

I especially love that we saw some fun ways to use up bits and pieces in our sewing rooms, to create things to shower our friends with. 

Today we have 6 bloggers, who are sharing with us!

One last thing!!

I can finally spill the beans here.

I need to start working on a baby shower gift, soon.

April Showers Blog Hop Day 2

 We are off to a great start with our hop this month. Yesterday's bloggers filled our heads with inspiration!

April pulled a mean trick on me here, this weekend.

Instead of those lovely rain showers, that bring May flowers we got a dumping of over 6" of snow.

My little tree had just flowered for the first time ever...only to be frozen.

😞

But enough about me...

please visit my fellow bloggers today and see what they have been working on!
