  Cathy Van Bruggen Designs  
  Hello Everyone,

We just finished the Glendale Quilt Show "A Stitch in Time," and it was a great success. There were a lot of people there, and it was so fun to see everyone. Cathy is currently busy getting ready for even more upcoming shows.

Cathy also recently got back from the Elly Sienkiewicz Appliqué Academy in Williamsburg, VA. She had a great time seeing friends, and came back with lots of creative new ideas - some of which you'll be seeing over the next few months.

Teaching & Schedule Updates
In May, Cathy will be going to the International Spring Quilt Market in Portland, Oregon. We will be debuting several new patterns during that time that incorporate Hoffman's lovely fabrics.

Cathy will be teaching in Quilt Hawaii in July, and our new pattern "Gecko's Passion" was specially designed for the Hawaii class. You can also purchase the pattern now from our website. She'll also be teaching the new pattern "A Day at the Beach, Hawaiian Style." Look for pictures of this new pattern in our next newsletter!

Meet Squeaker  
Squeaker and Paddy Cat are actually brother and sister. Squeaker is a quiet, gentle cat unlike Paddy who rules the roost. Squeaker loves to spend his days sitting on his pillow in the sunshine. His favorite treat is string cheese rolled into tiny little balls. Squeaker loves to snuggle with Cathy's granddaughter, Lisa. He also likes to take Lisa's Barbie's and pull them around by their hair! And he really likes it when we spray the Barbie's with catnip spray.

  Gecko's Passion
A gecko seeks his next meal waiting on a colorful, blooming, passion flower. Blossoms and ripe fruit give the wall quilt a tropical flair.
