Lori, what a fabulous journey you took us on today…meeting new designers for me how amazing are their bodies of work ❣️❣️Thank you…hard to believe we are at 24th of blogmas..you have been most amazing and inspiring♥️
Thank you for highlighting Thimbleberries😊 My Mother made a few of her quilts and we treasure them! I am blessed to have her quilting library and use it often. Thank you for the inspiration of old styling is still in!! Merry Christmas 🎄
Really enjoyed your vlogmas through the month of December. I’ll miss watching you at night. I was lucky enough to tour Lynette’s house a few times while attending a local retreat in her town and she graciously opened her home to us. It was the house she shared in many of her books and was fabulous as you can imagine. She was so gracious to allow us to take,pictures while we walked around. I still look back at those photos for decor inspiration. She had such a knack for making a home warm and cozy. Merry Christmas
Thank you for showing the Thimbleberries books and lines. I live very close to Lynette and during the 90's her fabrics and books were everywhere. I have many of her books and fabrics. I have made several of her quilts. I enjoyed seeing all this again. Of course Lynette Anderson is another fantastic designer whom I like very much. Both are such talented ladies. Another very inspiring video. I want to run into my sewing room and look through all my books.
Wow..what memories. I still have several of her kits from when I was a Thimbleberries Club member for several years.. Found another similar decorating item we have in common....Harold Turpin houses. I only have one, but I like it a lot. I will miss seeing you daily as I have enjoyead each and every post.
I worked in a quilt shop in the late 1990s early 2000s and thimbleberries was big back then. I actually got to go to a retreat and met Lynette and had my picture taken with her. Those were great times and great memories and you brought them all to the forefront today. Thank you Lori.
Such gorgeous quilts! Thank you for sharing so much beauty and so many wonderful ideas with us this past month! I’ll miss seeing you every day! Hope you enjoyed a cozy Christmas Eve! Hugs! 🫶🏻
The topper on my dining room table, Christmas quilt and wallhanging Christmas card holder are all made with Thimbleberries patterns and fabric. I think the fabric colors are truly timeless. My local quilt shop had a Thimbleberries club that met quarterly. They would have samples made up and we received free recipes and patterns. I also attended her lecture locally in the early 2000s.
What a trip down memory lane with Lynette Jensen. I have several of her books, have made several of her patterns. My son in law did a lot of the photography for her books in the late nineties, often at her home. He loved working with her.
I like the quilt you have on the sofa in back of you. I have never sewn with flannel or wool before. Probably recommend using a walking foot but will have to look into some small pieces to start with, maybe some table runners. Always a new adventure and you do enable us. Merry Christmas Eve and hope you enjoy your family this holiday season. 🎄☃️❄️🪡🧵🙏
I really love all those quilt books. Thank you for showing them! When I lived in OKC, there was a quilt shop called Buckboard Antiques. The owner had the most incredible antique quilts. Better Homes and Gardens quilt books often pictured quilts from her store. I love quilts from every era! I managed to buy a couple antique quilts from Judy’s shop.
Oh the Thimbleberry books took e back to a quilt shop we use to have here. It was a very prim shop full of the thimbleberry fabrics, decor and one whole room was flannels. Merry Christmas! 🎄
Thank you for sharing from some of your book collection. It is fun to see all of the inspiration. There are some great quilts. I really enjoy her style and the color ways. See you tomorrow.
How wonderful to revisit Lynette Jensen, Lori! They truly are timeless! I'm not totally sure as it was one of my first quilts, but I think my Christmas trees couch quilt is one of hers. We have a lot of the same taste! Now I need to run and catch up on your last Vlogmas -- we had a very and fun 2 days! Hugs, Candace😊
Hi Lori, I have done several Thimbleberry quilts and still have some of the fabric. I have lots of her books but you still best me! I enjoy going through her books too❤. I love your quilt that you made that you made and now have on your couch. I’m really going to miss your daily videos😊
Such beautiful quilt designs. Always enjoy thumbing through these types of books with a cup of tea or coffee especially at this time of year. Thanks for the tip about hutch decorating on Pinterest. I love hutches. The white one you showed in the book is right up my alley. Just wish I had room in my house for some more of them. Thank you, Lori, for all the wonderful inspiration (some enabling you too) that you have given us during Vlogmas this year. Looking forward to seeing what you have going in 2025. Many Blessings and Merry Christmas to you and the kitties. ❤😻😻
Thank you for reintroducing me to Lynette and Thimbleberries. It's been a while and her quilts definitely give you Autumn/Christmas vibes. It's wonderful to sit down sometimes and go though all those books on our shelves. They do take you down memory lane. Merry Christmas Lori!
Merry Christmas to you. I have made a couple of Thimbleberries simple quilts. It's nice to get one done quickly to bring joy quickly. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
Thimbleberry Quilts books were my intro to quilting- I bought a book at Half Price Books and decided I wanted to make a quilt. Still love their quilts and have a good collection of books. Timeless is right! Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Hi Lori - your flannel quilt on the couch is gorgeous! Love thimbleberry fabrics! Your books are great - really enjoyed seeing all the goodies! Merry Christmas Eve, Lori!
Hi Lori, Thimbleberries is most definitely timeless, like the antiques we love and the vintage bowls. Eleanor Burns is also timeless with her quilt in a day series. I did not know there were so many Thimbleberry books, I have some but now will be on the hunt for them. I hope you have a safe and Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas eve! And thanks for doing these videos all month. Our kids and grandkids just left to go home to prepare for Santa, so I am relaxing a bit before heading to bed. Enjoyed the trip down memory lane with those books!
So fun to see some of these again. I used to belong to a Thimbleberries Club where we met every month for a few years. I have very little left except some fabric from the Lodge/ Lake line. I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and thank you for another lovely season of Holiday Vlogmas!
Loved the thimbleberries showcase. I have so many of her books. I will have to pull them out for inspiration! Thanks so much for this month of needlework treasures! Merry Christmas and enjoy family time!
Awww Lynette… so many books, so many designs. Non-stop. I have many books and they never get old. Thimbleberries is a state of mind. It defines autumn.
Merry Christmas! What a fun way to spend some time on Christmas Eve, paging through some much loved Thimbleberries books. I still page through them at the thrift stores and pick up the ones I like. So often, even if I never sewed a single pattern from it, I get more than the sticker price’s worth of inspiration and pleasure from it. Early Christmas Morning is kitted up. Might put in some stitches tonight. If not, definitely Christmas morning. Christmas peace to you and yours.
All the Christmas Eve company just left, and I enjoyed sitting in the quiet watching and listening to this vlogmas. It was wonderful, and just what I needed. Thanks so much!
Well you enabled me again today. This time I ordered Kathy Schmitz’s book Stitches from the Yuletide. I love the needle book and will try to make one. ❤
What a collection of fabulous books!!!! I would look through them over and over again!!! Have a peaceful Christmas Eve and a glorious Christmas morning.
I was introduced to Thimbleberry quilts late but do have one book that I love the projects. I had no idea the designer had published so many books. I will be on the lookout in my future thrifting endeavors. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your families visit and have a very Merry Christmas.
I know I have one or two Thimbleberries books and now I will have to go and pull them out and have a closer look at them. Wishing you a Happy Christmas Eve! 💚
I had several Thimbleberries books and booklets, but when we moved I really had to downsize my collections. I think I kept several, I'll have to check. It's nice to know that when you give away things, they are going to someone who will love them again.
You are inspiring me to try making a quilt. I am thinking of finishing a cross stitch project with binding and maybe a quilted boarder. The Camping Stitcher just showed a finish she did with a quilted boarder.
Merry Christmas Eve to you! I’m pretty sure my mom has a bunch of the Thimbleberry books. I’m gonna have to go to her house and search them out. I have really enjoyed these daily videos I am gonna be bummed out when they’re over!
I love seeing older quilt patterns done with updated fabrics. Treasures!
That was some gorgeous eye candy. ❤ Merry Christmas. You’ve worked really hard this month to bring us a video every day. Thank you.

I used to drool over the Thimbleberry things back in the day. So nice to see them again! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you, too!
So many beautiful quilts & love her Santas
Those books brought back so many memories - I love Thimbleberries flannels !
Thank you for showing the Thimbleberries books. Brings back many memories of my early days of quilting. Happy Holidays.
Really enjoyed looking at all the Thimbleberry books. Always love the darker, small print fabrics made into quilts.
Me too, they are so charming!
Thanks for sharing the books in your collection. Loved seeing the Santas and beautiful quilts.
Merry Christmas!
You’re welcome! Merry Christmas to you!

That is so interesting! What a small world.

Flannel is a very easy and forgiving fabric to work with.
This brought back so many memories. Thank you, Lori!
The Thimbleberries designs are right up my alley. 😊Thank you for sharing!
I'm so glad you like them!

Better Homes and Gardens quilt books often pictured quilts from her store. I love quilts from every era! I managed to buy a couple antique quilts from Judy’s shop.
I started quilting with Tibbleberries! One of my quilter friends was absolutely obsessed with Timmbleberries! It was a walk down memory lane today!😁
Thank you for sharing your Thimbleberry quilt books. So inspiring and love her knack of decorating just like you.❤️
Oh the Thimbleberry books took e back to a quilt shop we use to have here. It was a very prim shop full of the thimbleberry fabrics, decor and one whole room was flannels. Merry Christmas! 🎄

Lynette Jensen is from MN and had a wonderful quilt shop. I learned how to quilt using her designs. Merry Christmas, Lori!
That would have been so awesome!

I always loved Thimbleberries. I have a few of her leaflets and a couple of her books. I didn’t realize she had so many. Love them. ❤
I think I have only a fraction!
I love all the timeless patterns, it was so much eye candy! I’ve really enjoyed it!
Looking through the Thimbleberries books with you brought back the memories! Thank you! Merry Christmas!❤🎄
Same to you!
Great spotlight. The lights on the tree look magical. Enjoy your family time.

Lynette Anderson is a favourite of mine. I like how she combines embroidery with quilting.
Me too!
Have a wonderful time with your family. Mama made delicious raisin filled cookies. Always a family favorite.
So good!

Gosh, so much fun going through the Thimbleberries books. You inspire me to go through my books I have collected. Merry Christmas to you as well.
I didn’t quilt back when these books came out but I was into the crafting of the smaller pieces and folk art painting.
Thank you again for all the time you put into these videos. Merry Christmas!
What a collection of fabulous books!!!! I would look through them over and over again!!! Have a peaceful Christmas Eve and a glorious Christmas morning.

Thimbleberries is always a wonderful go-to for a quilt. I got to meet Lynette at Quilt Market and she is just the loveliest lady.
I have several of her books. When I started quilting everyone was doing her quilts.
I found a ton of Thimbleberries fabric in my closet during my remodel. I get tickled at how many things I have that you show. Merry Christmas.
Thank you for all the inspiration!
You have inspired me to get out some of my older thimbleberry books! I love her style too! Have a Merry Christmas!🎄
I know I have one or two Thimbleberries books and now I will have to go and pull them out and have a closer look at them. Wishing you a Happy Christmas Eve! 💚
Thanks for sharing your book collections. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Loved the books. Thimble Berry books are awesome. Merry Christmas!
I had several Thimbleberries books and booklets, but when we moved I really had to downsize my collections. I think I kept several, I'll have to check. It's nice to know that when you give away things, they are going to someone who will love them again.
Another great Vlogmas video. Thanks for sharing the Thimbleberries books.
You’re welcome! I hope you find some inspiration in them.
I have a couple of Thimbleberries books… now I’m going to dig them out and get inspired again! Merry Christmas 🎄
I don’t quilt but I love looking at them! Thanks for sharing some of your Thimbleberries books.
Love the thimbleberry books. I have sew a couple of her wallhangings. There are several quilts I would love to sew. One day…..
Merry Christmas, Lori!
Really enjoyed your Thimbleberries showcase. She really is timeless
You are inspiring me to try making a quilt. I am thinking of finishing a cross stitch project with binding and maybe a quilted boarder. The Camping Stitcher just showed a finish she did with a quilted boarder.
The Thimbleberry books have some really cute stuff in them.
I love all the book reviews!
Merry Christmas Eve to you! I’m pretty sure my mom has a bunch of the Thimbleberry books. I’m gonna have to go to her house and search them out. I have really enjoyed these daily videos I am gonna be bummed out when they’re over!
I missed several of her older books 😮 I have newer ones and had joined a Thimbleberries club at the quilt store back in the day.
Thank you for showing us the Thimbleberry books.
