it's my



I have wanted this fabric
ever since Ashley posted about the quilts she made with it.
When I couldn't find it online anywhere
I boldly wrote the designer
asking where I might purchase some.
I know.
I felt like a stalker.
She very kindly wrote back
and gave me a list of shops that should have the fabric.
And then
I hesitated.
Designer fabric is not cheap.
Nor is it inexpensive....
But
I have never before
laid eyes
on fabric that I liked so much.
A whole collection - just begging to made into a quilt.
Large blocks, though
because the fabric is so very lovely
~
After many hours over the course of months
of scouring the internet
and finding a piece here
and a piece there
I finally found
And I bought it.

Thanks, Hon!

  2. These patterns are fantastic! And so YOU!

    I checked out the designer's blog. I loved her section about how she designs a pattern - starting out with something SO simple! Who knew? Wow! I think I'll pass the info on to our art teacher. It's very inspiring, indeed. :-)
