About a month ago I posted that I was licensing my fabric designs to a fabulous new company called Modern Yardage. I wanted to update you on my progress on my first collection…

I am currently finalizing the colors, and hopefully this week I’ll get everything approved and will  have my “Cirque de Millefiori” fabric collection on their site very soon. CAN NOT WAIT!! This is like a dream come true for me, I’ve only been designing patterns for a year, and I am so very grateful with my progress so far and the reaction to my work. I am humbled.

First of all, Modern Yardage’s fabric quality is so…well…I want to use the word “yummy”. Very sturdy, yet soft. My colors look brilliant on the samples I’ve received so far. The fabric is super white, so the colors digitally print out very true. YAY!! I did 10 colorways for this collection. I know, nuts, right? The neato thing about working with Modern Yardage is each design will be available in 3 different sizes. Yep! So you can use it for quilting, crafting, home decor, sewing clothes, you name it!

Gardening is Good for your Soul…

I think my favorite thing to do is gardening. Why? Because when I am doing it, I am not worrying about a thing. I find it highly therapeutic and relaxing, even though I've digging and carrying pails of water around the yard. I've just moved to a new house, and I've...
