Friday Fun Day... and the beginning of the giveaway party

Friday, May 25, 2012
Hi Everyone,

Did you ever wonder where the "Friday Fun Day" title for all of my Friday posts came from? Well, even if you didn't I am gonna tell you :) Back... way back LOL About 2 yrs ago... maybe a year and a half...whatever... I applied to be a contributor to the creative team of a designer named Amanda Herring AKA The Quilted Fish. That was before the shop and all of the accompanying crazyness. We, the Team, created items with her fabric and posted tutorials on her blog every Friday. So I would title my posts Friday Fun Day and direct you over to her blog to see the latest cuteness... This year we have been working on a secret project. THE BOOK here is a picture of the cover:

I can't take any credit at all but I am so proud of this book. The pictures are beautiful and vibrant on glossy paper. Every page is a feast for the eyes. Even the directions pages have Amanda's style all over them. Honestly, It is so much fun to look through. The box on the cover is by Amanda herself. It is a sewing kit box, those flowers are pincushions. Just saying ...because I can... Amanda is brilliant you should see her new pattern for a sewn dollhouse complete with a backyard. Totally Genius!

This quilt is by someone you will know from my Newsletter, Brooke. I have been so fortunate to make these 9 ladies my friends and abuse cherish their friendship in everything I do :)

 This Mini is by someone else you will know if you hang around here any time at all... Sally

This is the make and take project the girls were teaching in the Market booth. Cute huh? This was made by Jackie

There are 5 more projects and awesome ladies in the book as well... ummm me included.

So the first Giveaway for the 500th post giveaway is a copy of this book. I will even sign my pattern (a rotary cutting mat carrying bag with a fold out ironing surface) called Pack and Press (we fondly refer to it as the Pack and Play).

Just leave a message here saying anything you want :) but keep it PG please :)

Have an awesome Friday Fun Day :)

Hi Everyone,

As soon as I get up from this chair it is going to be a busy day. Maybe I will sit here a while longer :) Apple Of My Eye is coming today and so are a few new basics from Art Gallery... I am having so much fun filling out the colors in my basics. I am trying to pick colors that are a little out of my normal range.


I call this Hot Chocolate
 It is exciting and new to have golds and chocolates and not my usual blues and greens (well, not all the time anyway). I decided to go look at the Pantone Color Trends for this year to see what will be upcoming in the fashion world as far as color goes... I am always so amazed with 20/20 hindsight ...when I look at the trends for Spring/Summer they are all the colors that are selling well in the shop right now.
