No, not Jo Morton... although I bet she's been pretty busy too getting ready for Spring Quilt Market. Nope, it's our own Jo at the West Center store... Jo Schmitz. This is Jo - she's restocking our yummy carmels that are at the front counter. Either that or she's really hungry...
So, why has Jo been so busy?? Well, she just finished a model for us of this great pattern by Lazy Girl Designs ...
And Jo's versions turned out great!

Although the Suzi pattern was designed originally as a purse insert, it's sooo much more! It's great for organizing anywhere you need some pockets: in your purse, on your desk, or next to your sewing machine (my personal favorite).

But that's not all!! Jo stitched us up a model of this pattern too....

If you're like me, I end up with a huge pile of "stuff" at my feet and tossed in the back seat; so when he says, "Where's the (insert almost anything in here) - I have to rummage through everything to (hopefully) find the missing item.
I THINK you can find both of these patterns on the website at ... www.countrysampleronline.com , but I'll check on that as soon as I finish this blog post. Who knows, though?? Heck, I can hardly remember yesterday - let along what's on the website - ha!
