Stash Happy : :

There's nothing quite like fabric mail, don't you agree? The excitement of opening each package, the fanning it all out, and the dreaming of what they'll become! I share often that it's my most favorite part of sewing, and this past week was extra, extra good! To top it off, a surprise package from Love Patchwork & Quilting arrived including my Butterfly Quilt -- in print, on the cover! WOWSA!!



Here we have two brand new, amazingly beautiful collections by Art Gallery Fabrics!



First the new Chromatics, a wonderful assortment of our very favorite prints in gorgeous new colors to coordinate perfectly with all of the AGF collections. I'm so excited about these! I sew with Art Gallery fabrics more than any other, because I'm in love with the feel, and have developed a bit of habit for keeping only AGF's together in my projects. Not always, but most of the time. Stashing these was a must for me and I really, really hope they'll offer more of this style of mix and match collections!



I especially love these sweet & dainty Love Notes florals!



Have you seen Bonnie Christine's newest collection Sweet as Honey? Named perfectly, this collection is full of the prettiest woodland themed fabrics I've seen and the colors are so amazing!





My personal favorites are the beautiful Fly By Day and Fly By Night prints. I plan to back an entire quilt in this fabric, and after seeing Art Gallery's new pattern for their Rustic Autumn quilt, I'm inspired!



Since both Anna Maria Horner's new Dowry and True Colors collections didn't make it into my AMH Love Herringbone Quilt, and because I've been dying to make a second one! I recently received from Free Spirit Fabrics these Design Rolls in both of Anna's new collections! Already pre-cut into the 2.5" strips my pattern calls for, these are just too perfect and will make an already super quick quilt pattern even quicker! Plus, I have a roll of each to offer in a Giveaway right here, just as soon I finish up my quilt!!



From Cloud9 Fabrics, I have big pillow plans for this Bark & Branch bundle, such a perfect Winter collection! As well as, big Giveaway plans for their brand new, Koi Canvas collection!



Such amazing fabrics, aren't they? Now my only problem is that I cannot decide which to cut into first! What do you think ?? Help!!
