Cotton Candy
April 14th, 2008
My nap is over…
Here’s a little of what’s been humming through my sewing machine lately. Blah, blah, blah… top secret stuff. But mmmmmm… deeee-licious! A beautiful new line from Moda called Flutterby by Tula Pink, paired with some Deb Strain fabrics. I can’t take the credit for picking this out… but I would have! No licking your monitors.
Same project, different fabrics. Love the Benartex fab, but the cut I had didn’t have a full selvege - so not more info on that. The black with white polka dots is what everyone is raving about… Mary E’s new fabric from Moda. Some of the best fabric I’ve ever sewn with and the hand is incredibly silky. I want it all! Ah, ah, ah… keep that tongue in your mouth.
This is something I’m working on for Holly’s booth at Market. Blah, blah, blah… top secret stuff too. Though some jolly peeps may recognize what I’m working on. Shhhh. Holly’s Lakehouse Dry Goods fabric is like candy. Candy, candy, candy. You can’t help but smile when you look at this. I’ve been having a lot of fun sewing with this, and when I had all the fabs laid out on my work-table… and it looked like a rainbow of happy exploded in my sewing room.
Ok. NOW you can lick your monitor.

April 14th, 2008Damn you, woman!! Now my ‘puter screen is all wet!! I will admit to licking before you said it was okay…..I’m ornery that way.
Love it all, but the Flutterby fabric has charmed me all to heck! (That’s when I started licking the computer, if you must know.) I just might have to break my fabric diet. Damn you and thank you!!! LOL!
I heart you muchly!!! NJ
April 14th, 2008good gawd. I bought the flutterby in the other colorway today, brown, teal, red, and a touch of gold, and like a ship-load of coordinating fabrics to start a new quilt, a class being given by Marilyn Doheny at LQS on Sunday. I cannot stand how cool that line is. . . oh, yeah, mama like.
LOVE the candy colors too.
April 14th, 2008Yum! What goodies. I’m so looking forward to seeing what you are sewing.
April 14th, 2008It all takes my breath away. Especially the CANDY!
April 15th, 2008I can’t wait for market to be over so I can see all this secret stuff everyone is doing. Its truly driving me nuts! I have some of that Deb Strain fabric, too. Isn’t that line cute. Well everyone is busy. And busy is good. It looks like you have your hands full of fun stuff.

April 16th, 2008Those stacks are simply delicious (I know because I licked my screen)! Oh the things you can do with stacks like that….
April 18th, 2008Oh, it’s all yummy, but I don’t lick the monitor because TJ gets all irritated with all that spit. I don’t know why…must be a guy thing. :) tee hee Hey, did anyone ever tell you, you’re a tease??? :)
