Butermilk Basin Quilts, Fabric, Notions & Wool Projects





You know her as Buttermilk Basin. Stacy West has a signature style is built on vintage finds and genuine history. Her heritage plays an important role in her inspiration giving everything she creates a nostalgic, familiar feel that resonates with our community of quilters. Stacy is well known for her wool applique patterns and more recently has created a name for herself in the fabric industry designing for Utah based Riley Blake Designs. Her own delightful shop is on our list of must-see quilt destinations and her friendly personality shines. How did she get her start? We'll let her introduce herself:


"I was born and raised up North amongst the oaks and the apple trees in the state of Minnesota. I was fortunate to be raised surrounded by generations of my family. Growing up in the same yard as my great grandmother Lily and my grandmother Avis allowed me to learn and enjoy the creative process of handwork and sewing, just like my mother did years ago. I was blessed beyond measure and inspired at an early age to create and inspire others by using & sharing my talents with others.

"Through the years, I have enjoyed working in various mediums, but have grown to love working with wool and fibers. More recently I have also fallen in love with quilting (as I collect quilts and orphan blocks) and the creative process of designing fabrics and wool. I tend to like traditional colors and small civil war prints that are found within my quilt collection. I am not afraid to go out of the box and mix cottons and wool in my designs! It really adds more interest and dimension. I also am fond of yarn dyes and homespuns. Those tend to make great backgrounds for my block of the months and again, add a fun twist to any project!

"I also LOVE to travel, teach and share my passion with. There is no greater joy than seeing others learn your technique and fall in love with working with wool, for example. Seeing them bring you their finished pieces just warms my heart. I truly am blessed!



Blessed Beyond Measure is not only the name of her latest fabric collection but also the title of this gorgeous quilt design, in honor of her upbringing. A traditional, monochromatic color scheme features prints reminiscent of civil war era quilts. Sara Anderson pieced the quilt shown above and, lucky for you, we have kits that include a full fat quarter bundle of this timeless collection for $144.99. The pattern is sold separately for just $9.99 so if you'd like to pull together your own fabric combination, no problem! The Blessed Beyond Measure Sampler pattern comes as a conveniently spiral bound book featuring excellent instructions. Finished size is 53" x 66". You'll find both the pattern and the kit available now in-store AND on our website!


Sara Anderson enjoyed working with the Blessed Beyond Measure fabrics so much, that she found inspiration in her scraps, picked up a few more fabrics from the collection and whipped this darling heart quilt up in no time! We loved it so much that we made kits for it too! You may recognize the pattern as You Have My Heart found in the Bonnie and Camille Quilt Bee book (sold separately). Let this 72" x 72" quilt warm your heart by picking up a kit in-store today for $149.99!

PATTERN CORRECTION! We're so sorry, but there is a small issue in the January Pillow Cover pattern bay Ella + Charming. If you are one of the lucky few who purchased the kit, you should correct step #2 as follows: the trimming for step #2 should be for 1 3/4" square -- not 1 1/4" square as written. If you purchased a PDF Pattern from our website, you should have already received a corrected copy via email; please discard the first copy and use the corrected one. This darling pattern  is still available to purchase as a PDF Pattern from our website and has been corrected there as well.
