Wow. Thanks for the tip! Wondering if I should part with some of mine... not sure if I could! :)
Are you sitting on a gold mine? Go check your stash
When I was selling fabric I always carried everything from Jennifer Paganelli (because it's all perfect, it just is). Well, if you were a customer and bought some of the Loopy Vintage Floral from her Flower Power collection (it was a couple of years ago and is now out of print), you may want to...
What a wonderful idea!! I can think of year-round uses for this (great for business wrap, too!!) Would love to win some! tikichic on Spoonflower
Spoonflower Gift Wrap Giveaway
I have a dear friend who about this time every year begins gloating that not only does she have all her Christmas shopping done, she's made major headway wrapping everything, too. She is one crazy organized individual but perhaps with Halloween behind us, it really is time to start wrapping ...
You think you are not on Pinterest as much, but then, maybe you are, lol! Had to pin this collection so I can remember to look for it around January! (May need to have birdie curtains in my craft studio - part of my bucket list being worked on!)
Noteworthy...
So here is a full look at our next collection. First, I will explain how Noteworthy came to be. There were two ideas behind this collection. We sort of combined them. First has to do with our love of Pinterest. I actually don't spend much time on there anymore (mostly because I was wasting...
Oh, would love to make this! Deciding on fabric would be hard - too many good choices, lol!! Maybe have to make more than 1! ;) tikichic at Spoonflower
Wiksten pattern and fabric giveaway and quilting notions winner
I've often joked to my more sporty friends that summer is my indoor season here in sunny and humid North Carolina. It's hard for me to get motivated to even open the front door when temperatures are in the upper 90's and 100's as they have been lately. The garden gets super weedy for a couple ...
I so love everything that you do! Your labels and charms are just wonderful!!
Random Acts of Kindness...
We thought it would be a good time for us to say thankyou. Everyday we come to work we have orders in our Inbox, messages on our e-mail, replies on our blog and new fans on our Facebook page. We want you to know we appreciate all of you who support us- so we are doing something fun for you. ...
Welcome Back!! Had to laugh out loud at the "flames through the door" comment - SO true! (DFW girl; I so totally get it!) But love Texas; never want to leave.
It's Alive!!!
I'm happy to report that my job did not kill me off and I took a MUCH needed break ("much needed" being the understatement of the century). I abandoned my craft room and shacked up with my Kindle and my RonChops and the dogs for most of the latter part of the summer. I did manage to get a few ...
I'm so excited about this book! I have a project I started quite a while back, but ran into a design wall - this collage technique is exactly what it needs! Will definitely be getting my hands on this one!!
Inspired to Sew? You will be!
When I stopped to consider what makes me Inspired to Sew it really came down to one thing....creative people. Creative people inspire me to sew and the funny thing is it doesn't even need to be sewing people, just creative people. It just so happens that sewing is my outlet when I'm inspired. ...
Thanks so much for the updates!!! Love the Ava bag pattern!
Fall Quilt Market 2010 Re-cap #3 (and massive give-away #3!)
A few folks asked about the pronunciation of my name in the last post and here's my very first post in which I detail that (and my mother leaves a defensive comment). Just think of Jonathan without the "than". And thanks for asking! :) I have so many pictures of people at Quilt Market that I...
Rockwall, Texas
Our New Project- Be A Part Of It!
We are working on something new- we can't tell you what it is yet, but I think it will be pretty cool. The best part is- we want you to be involved. All you need to do is leave us a comment telling us the name of your hometown. I know this sounds vague, but trust me, you will love it when it'...
Oh, how I love them all! But, I am sadly lacking in Poodle, so, I'd have to pick the Square Tiles fabric - Green, Blue, and Fuchsia! (crossing fingers now... )

Ooooooh, can't wait to get my hands on some Poodle!! Had to go audible ("Oh, Wow!") the first time I saw Marni in the aqua-green. Wish I could have gotten some sooner - would have put it with the black and white Casey Scroll I used for table runners for my daughter's graduation party (they looked great!). Still will need to get my hands on some Marni - yum! Hope I win!!

Hi everyone! It's time to get excited because I'm announcing a raffle that will have FOUR winners! You've got 1 week, Ladies... the clock is ticking! Each winner will get 1 set of Poodle Fat Quarters! We're sorry it took so long, but Poodle JUST came in and since then Madeline has been a busy ...
Oh, I just LOVE the Whimsy fabric! Just finished sewing a drill team uniform for a Build a Bear for my daughter who is graduating this year (sequins and all,a massive project, whew!!) Next, am starting a slipcover for my netbook. Can't let too much time come between projects!!
Friday Freeday!
We're trying to continue sprucing things up around here and since Joey has been working on a new storage system for the boys clothes (almost there!) we were able to take their dresser and give it to Sofia. This dresser has been juggled between kids for 17 years and the inside still bears the slo...
Definitely Swirly border, even though I am usually a grunge girl. I like them both, but I really like the swirly border, with the option of changing up the leaf when the whim strikes. The swirly style really seems to reflect your illustration style to a T (which I REALLY love), and would compliment all the pics you post.
I need help!!! ...grunge-y, swirl-y, flower-y or circle-y?
I was a frantic crafter this weekend (working my little baby bunny procrastinator fingers off on MomChops birthday present (her birthday was Saturday... HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMCHOPS!!!)). I was not able to get her present done in time for her birthday dinner Sunday evening (but I did manage to bri...

Jumpy kid loves bugs. Not just finding and watching them but he loves to learn about them. We have books and watch the discovery channel and he is enthralled and will then tell everyone what he knows. The last couple of years we have raised silk worms in a shoe box in his bedroom. It's amazing ...
