Hello! I can't believe it's been so many months since I popped in here with a new post. There were many times I planned to, to share how Covid19 has affected our family, ALL the masks I made and a few special projects I completed since my last post in February. But the more time went on, I felt I had too much to share and unsure where to begin. Well, today I have a brand new collection to announce and I can't think of a more perfect reason to just dive right back in!
Last month my new collection with Art Gallery Fabrics, Cozy & Joyful, started shipping to shops and this past Friday we released the LookBook -- a 62-page book filled with beautiful pictures and amazing project inspiration!
Cozy & Joyful comes in 14 quilting-cotton prints that are inspired by the magic & joy of the holidays and the comfort & warmth of family felt throughout the season. The main prints include a beautiful floral, Frosted Roses, made from my sketches of wild roses, a cozy cabins Winter Wonderland print inspired by our wintry surroundings in Potter County, Pa, and Jolly March, a nutcracker print that pays homage to our yearly family tradition of giving a new nutcracker to each of our kids on Christmas Eve, and we have a huge nutcracker collection as a result! Prints with twinkling lights, snowflakes, kissing reindeer, dancing gingerbread & candy canes add support to the main prints to help to tell the story of our most cherished holiday moments and memories. Starry skies, herringbone, intarsia knitting-inspired prints and my favorite plaid make up the blenders that round out the rest of this collection perfectly!
While we worked on finalizing this collection we payed careful attention to the scale of each print, making sure there were loads of fussing cutting potential for all the projects I dreamed would be made with Cozy & Joyful!
In addition to the 14 AGF quilting cottons that work as beautifully for quilting a they do for garment sewing, there's one knit print, Under the Mistletoe. The sweetest, red & cream 95% cotton/5% spandex knit featuring two kissing reindeer. It's so adorable and is perfect for Christmas jammies!
Finally I have two, new luxurious AGF rayon fabrics to share as part of Cozy & Joyful - Plaid of my Dreams Snow and Candied Rose!
I've dreamed of having a traditional black and white plaid, hence the name Plaid of my Dreams, since I became a designer for AGF. I wasn't going to let not being a garment sewist stop me from sewing something with this print asap, so I stitched up this quilted rayon pillow and I'm happy to report this rayon feels absolutely AMAZING when quilted!
Today is just an introduction of Cozy & Joyful and I promise to be back very soon to share some of my projects to inspire sewing with this collection, as well as the Sweet Home QAL I'll be hosting with Sharon Holland beginning next week!
Lastly, I want to invite you all to head over to the Art Gallery Fabric Blog for a chance to win a bundle of Cozy & Joyful!
I hope you love it as much as I do!

ReplyDeleteI was married for 12 years and early april during the pandemic, my husband decided he wanted a divorce. When I met my husband 13 yrs ago and the way he felt about me and how he adored me how every one would tell me how much this man loves me, i felt we were going to spend the rest of our lives together. We had three beautiful boys, I miss them more as each day rolls on even though I see them regularly. Its been almost 9 months and I cried every night and not one day goes by that I don't think about him. He posted a picture on facebook of him and a different lady and he acted like nothing ever happened. I was alone and in a lot of pain until I found the Azaka Spell Temple email online. I told him my problem and he did helped me cast a Love spell, and that was it. In just 24 hours after the spell casting, my ex husband who has not talked to me for almost 9 months called for us to be together again. This spell is 100% effective. I am happy because my husband is back home and my marriage is restored again.

ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed of herpes 3 years, and ever since then i have been taking treatment to prevent outbreaks, burning and blisters, but there was no improvement until i came across testimonies of Dr. VOODOO on how he has been curing different people from different diseases all over the world, then i contacted him. After our conversation he sent me the medicine which i took according to his instructions for up to 2 weeks. After completing the medication i went back to my doctor for another test and the virus was all gone and i was completely cured, since then i have not had any signs of outbreak. I'm so filled with joy. With herbal medication Herpes Virus is 100% curable.

My husband and I have been married for over 10 years. We met when I was 18 and he was 21. We’ve been through a lot emotionally together. There were several HUGE fights and painful situations in our marriage, but we always seemed to come out stronger on the other side. Out of the blue my husband just sprung the divorce talk on me, I was totally depressed until I found the Dr.Todd website online and I ordered a Love spell. You won’t believe my husband called me at the exact time this spell caster finished his spell work in 24hours. I was totally amazed! He is wonderful and his spells work so fast.
