New Arrivals!

Well I'm pleased to announce that the first couple bolts of the Alexander Henry "Very Berry" just arrived! This fabric is SPRING. It is a fantastic bold pattern of strawberries on black, with pink, red and a fantastic olive green. All the berries have different patterns of polka dots. Very sweet. When I ordered this, in my mind I saw little girl dresses....or a jumper. I also imagined baby blankets backed in pink or red minky. Somebody please make something girlie with this! Just a note, there are a few more Alexander Henry fabrics on the way that may coordinate with this, but don't wait, be the FIRST to offer your items in the cutest fabric for Spring!

January 2008

Well I can't believe I haven't blogged ONCE over the Holidays. I guess I was busy doing other things like baking, shopping, wrapping, socializing, and being full of good cheer.

I have FINALLY started to receive my fabric orders. Boy, it is slow going - a few weeks (or a month!) between order date and actually receiving the bolts. At least now I know so I can plan better for the future.

In Seattle, when the calendar roles to January, everyone is ready for Spring. Which is, of course, totally ridiculous because it has only been Winter for all of TWO WEEKS! I'm more than ready to ditch the grays, browns, and blacks for green, yellow and pink! Let the Spring shopping commence! Everything feels new again and I just love it. Speaking of love...Valentine's Day is coming up and I found some absolutely fantastic pink and brown fabric. Dots, flowers, and stripes - a perfect combination. I hope someone buys them soon and makes something fabulous out of them so I can bask your craftiness!

February is also the month that I get to attend the NW Fabric and Notions show. Can't wait to see what is coming out soon. I heard through the 'fabric-vine' that Heather Bailey is coming out with 60 new fabrics. That's right, SIXTY. Oh, goodie, goodie. I think I need a bigger house...
