Pretty Pillow

Today brought to you by the Sizzix Blog!!!  Amy Donohue Friend my new twitter buddie showed me this amazing pillow before it went live and i practically fell over.  It looks extremely complex but Amy walks you through the process with Sizzix Dies and streamlines it for you.  I love the design it is just so beautiful.  I believe Quilt Home is still sitting on some of these beauties.   Amy it’s great to meet you and see your amazing work and I appreciate you!!

Fabric Found

Ebay and Etsy are your place for lost and found.  Everyone wants the fabric inside Girls World and if your patient enough they do come up but you have to be vigilant.  Today I found the single most requested fabric in Girls World.

Are you ready?? Find it here.

Did you know inside Girls World you will learn to make the lamp, the headband and the dress?? And yes even that pink Pouf in the background!! That’s a whole lotta bang for your buck..Just sayin> 🙂

My niece Sophie loves her Josie Dress!!

Zebra Halters

Can you imagine this summer ???  Wild off beat zebra Halters and iconic 70’s tablecloths and then OMG the quilts!!!  This is a large scale, go big or go home is the rule of thumb here. !!!  We can hardly wait to get these made up , this is my mock up yardage so that means in 4 weeks it will start to ship to stores!!! Are you on board?? overboard???  Will we see a swimsuit??  Please??  What you’ll need to do is get to Craftsy today all your other shops will have up by Monday !  Carla made two styles of top you can plunge or not.  The modest crossover could be your pic.  Your call. So think of the possibilities. Then show us what’s going on and we’ll try to keep up.  As you know I get around try to give cheers and well wishes to everyone because you are so important to me.  So check out Super Fly and dream big..

Spiderwebs in Spring!

By now you all know Mel P. of 100BillionStars because she and her Signature Sis Boom Cat have been featured so many times.  Well there is a reason!!  Check out this amazing quilt.  She won’t part with it and I’ve already tried. She is too much.   I get so excited to post about my followers because honestly I don’t do it this well. Sure I make beautiful fabrics I will own that but I don’t pretend to know all of the story that’s why I rely so heavily on all of you.  My books, my patterns, are all a collaboration, no sense hiding the village that is all of you so I display it proudly!!   Hey guys little secret it all comes back around.!!!  How fun is that.?  Look what I get to show all of you this is the quilt Melissa describes as the community that is Sis Boom, all interlocking all needing each other..nice..right???  She describes it so beautifully  because we would never support a clubby atmosphere.  That’s not our style. This is a community that thrives on interaction and sharing.  The nice thing about it if you feel like you are not part of the group just leave a comment or speak up cause we love to get to know you!!!  I like to offer this as your place to get to know others and to share ideas and to celebrate one another.  In my eyes you are all a success and I get to encourage and be a support and hopefully make your travel lighter.  We are all going places and arrival is an option!!  Thanks Melissa for another beautiful design.
