Boxwood & Berries ~ here I come...

The bags are packed and loaded in the car.
It's time to head north to Boxwood & Berries at Country Sampler in Spring Green, Wisconsin.
I look forward to this in anticipation all year long...

I just can't wait for the wonderful classes with Maggie Bonanomi & Stacy Nash. My homework is done ~ just in time. Of course, I added a few tweaks... a few color substitutions... a long dog to honor our sweet Orion...

a black cat in memory of our sleek Bucky.
If you want to read about Boxwood & Berries from last year while I am gone, I had 6 long posts that start here :)
And don't forget to enter my Prims magazine giveaway in the next post down. I'll be drawing a name when I return...
Until then... Blessings, Patti

    Those pieces are so wonderful! I guess they are limited to the participants. Too bad for those of us that could never make that trip! How exciting - have a great time!

    Patti, you do such beautiful work, and your adaptations are always really nice. Let me tell you, you could teach at Boxwood, and I'd take your class for sure!!! Have a great time.

    I love this project. I can't wait until this pattern is published. You did a great job. I attended B&B in 2009 and had a great time. That Jeanne knows how to put on a retreat doesn't she!!!
