A Sad and Tough Decision

Posted on April 23, 2026 by prairiemoonquilts in What's New

I have a big announcement today . . . I’m shutting down my website soon. I’ve been debating this for nearly a year. The site is out of date, so therefore, it’s getting out of compliance, and since I’m trying to downsize everything in my life, I don’t want to pour money into an entirely […]

It’s finally here — the 2023 Prairie Moon Ranch Cowboy Boot Christmas Stocking! And I guess I should say “cowgirl”, cos it’s called “Pink Lady” this year. I haven’t done a pink stocking since 2009, so I figured it was high time for another one. Here she is: This year’s boot features very simple hand […]

Posted on May 12, 2021 by prairiemoonquilts in My Patterns, Quilts, What's New

Were you aware that the simple patchwork pinwheel block has many names? One of those names is “Kathy’s Ramble”. When I designed the Arrow Rock Sampler quilts, I included this block in the quilt in honor of Kathy Borgman, who runs Borgman’s Bed & Breakfast in the Village of Arrow Rock. It’s where I’ve stayed […]

Some New Kits

Posted on November 27, 2020 by prairiemoonquilts in What's New

If you’ve been with me any length of time, then you know I do lots of collaborations with my best friend, Victoria Findlay Wolfe. Usually, it’s Victoria designing fantastic quilts, and then me adding the machine quilting part. Well, we’ve put our heads together again, and this time we decided to combine HER fabrics with […]

Merry Christmas!! I realize I’m terribly late getting this year’s Prairie Moon Ranch Cowboy Boot Christmas Stocking published, but what better day than today to be late with it, huh?

20 Years!

Posted on February 7, 2019 by prairiemoonquilts in Give-Aways, My Patterns, What's New

Way back in 1999, on January 11th, I took a deep breath and launched my little pattern company. Ten years later, in June of 2009, I launched my web site, and started my blog. Wow, what a ride it’s been! At the 10-year mark, I introduced a Welcome Banner pattern to celebrate; and again, at […]

Today is a big day here on the Ranch! It’s Sassy and Sissy’s birthday!!! They are ONE year old today! And it’s bitter cold here. I’m thanking my lucky stars that one year ago, on the night they were born, that it was not near this cold. And I’m planning carefully for no more winter […]
