No More Pity Parties! Playing with Echo.

Hi Everyone,

I promise no more pity parties... I spent a little time with EQ6 yesterday and started designing a quilt for Echo. I went to get a Free Spirit Designer Solid Color card, to check what I needed for the background, and low and behold, I already had some great matches.

These are the cool tone fabrics. Love this color combo!

And these are the warm tone fabrics. Oh dogwood I love you so....

I am thinking about bundling the solids with the prints what do you think?

Yesterday, I obviously had time on my hands, I created Gift Certificates for the shop. So all of you that say you wish you could get so and so can tell your friends and relatives what you need for a Holiday gift. You won't have to worry that they will get you the wrong thing :) They can be found here.

I still get comments from people that don't know I have a shop. So just saying for the record... I have a fabric shop :) Come visit it sometime I have the best prices around.

Have a wonderful Thursday and check back tomorrow for the fun that is Friday!

When will the Echo be up in the shop? I need some yardage to back a quilt I made from a charm pack.

People just need to stop coming out with amazing fabric until I can catch up (ie. save up enough money to buy their fabric lines) =D Love the solids with the prints for Echo! And I think most times you have the best prices around!

Love, love, love the mustard and gray. And for the record, Julie does have the best prices!

I always love when shops make custom bundles that pull in other fabrics, solids or otherwise. It can really determine which shop I'm going to buy my fabric from since they are generally unique to each shop. :)

Wish I could email you some chicken soup for your cold.
Love the fabrics.

Oh, please bundle the Echo just as you show it, with the solids, in two different groups! Maybe both as fat quarters and as half yards?

You absolutely have the best prices around, plus, and this is kind of silly, but the fact that you sent two free charm squares with my last order touched me. Uh, I can afford charm squares, right? But it was sweet. And when I received an order from another company afterward, it didn't include a little gift, and I was sorta bummed.

I hope this means you are starting to feel better! I love the color combos - gorgeous. I really need to get off my duff and start playing with the EQ7 software that I bought 2+ months ago!
Mrs Flying Blind...November 10, 2011 at 11:17 AM
Honestly, you have a fabric shop!? Well I never :)
SusanNovember 10, 2011 at 11:44 AM

Yay gift certificates!

Yes to any readers who didn't know, Julie is the place to get fabric! If she has what you need, get it from her. Fast shipping, great packaging, great prices!

Are you feeling better now? Being sick is no fun. I usually get the flu once a year, haven't got it yet but sure my day will come!

Gosh, I am so loving that Echo! And your solid matches are so spot on, too!! Have you listed Echo in the shop yet? I'm totally dying to get my hands on it!

Love, love, love the Echo and I also think the bundles look good enough to eat! Feel better... I have a house full of sickies and 8 eye teeth coming in between my littlest two.

Oh! Lovely! I vote yes on bundling the solids and prints together.
And yes. Hands down, you have the best prices in town!!
