Lynette Jensen's "Thimbleberries" Website and Store closing
Lynette sent out an email today saying the website and studio is closing December 20th. After 26 years, she is taking the opportunity to enjoy family, friends and gardening at a slower pace. She will continue to design for RJR fabrics and publish quilting books. When I returned to quilting a little over 2 years ago, my first Craigslist sale buys included two gorgeous Thimbleberries samplers and a handful of her books (often found on my night stand). I am linking Lynette's website as she has lots of free patterns AND wonderful recipes. Check out the link to the Charitable Initiative tab, too- there's a free pattern there, too. http://www.thimbleberries.com/

I have many of her books, and a lot of fabric...mostly from 8 years ago and older. I love how so many of her fabrics work with the reproduction fabrics that I mostly buy now.
She certainly has inspired a lot of quilters over the years...and can understand taking time for family.

I like the Star of Hope pattern on that Charitable Initiative tab. I've always loved Lynette's patterns and have several of her books. Happy for her she's "retiring", if that's what she's doing, but she'll surely be missed by all us quilters.
