Whimsyland: Be Cre8ive with Lizzie B

by Liz & Beth Hawkins

Get to know the Lizzie B girls as you read their quirky stories and work on one of the many amazing projects created for this whimsical journey. Maybe it’s the quick and easy “Stick it To Me Baby” pincushion, or one of the fabulous wall hangings, “Be Inspired!” or "Laugh a Good Laugh.” There’s something for everyone in Whimsyland!

Let the smell of warm butter, brown sugar and chocolate waft through your home as you make a batch of their favorite cookies. Then pop in some tunes from their jazzy playlist while you stitch the fantastical “Whimsyland” quilt. Liz and Beth hope this book will remind you to smile and laugh often, be inspired and inspire others, and above all... always, always, Be Cre8ive!

Have you purchased a copy of Whimsyland yet? If not, you can get your copy from Kansas City Star's online store or a quilt store near you!

Were you able to make it to Spring Market in Pittsburgh to see the Lizzie B girls and the Whimsyland booth? The booth, which reflects the book as well as the personality of the designers, was the winner of the covetted Creativity Award. This is the first time that the same company has earned the award two times in a row! Congratulations to the Lizzie B team for setting the bar so high! See the slideshow and get your taste of how fun Whimsyland can be.

    Welcome to Whimsyland, our own garden of goodness. Sit in the beanbag and munch on cookies while you talk to the newest book authors to take quilt market by the thread.

You Never Know What to Expect with the LIzzie B Girls!

Studies have shown that laughter reduces stress, increases endorphins and brings focus away from negative emotions including anger and guilt. Some may say that quilting does the same thing. Why not combine quilting with a reminder to Laugh by creating the "Laugh a Good Laugh" wall hanging. Using embellishments of wool, buttons and embroidery, this quilt reminds us of what makes us happy. It also reminds us to Laugh.

Whatever you do in life, it can't hurt to have a little bit of cheer along the way. The Lizzie B girls (have you ever heard them called "ladies" or "women") know this and have managed to create many stunning and whimsical reminders of how to keep an eye on the important things.
