What difference a ribbon makes.

I prefer the black with white topstitching - how about you?

Cobblestones randomly placed in a grid

Central Park Cobble

one of the fabrics from the Spring 2011 line

Finally the weather is cooperating.

The chill and damp was not too bad in the studio,

aka garage.

Spent yesterday afternoon in the studio

with my mini space heater.

2011 spring line ready to go.

I will burning the midnight oil pretty soon

to get ready for a show in Virginia

at the end of the month.

The fabric on the top of the laptop

is a custom fabric created by a friend of mine,

specifically for our local market,

via Spoonflower.

Spoonflower is a great way to have your own designs made into fabric.

This fabric incorporates our local school logo;

it will be perfect for picture frames

to give to

sports team members,

coaches,

graduating seniors,

teachers.

Spring 2011

some of the fabrics that I am thinking of...

I love maps so I could not resist this fabric

lots of geometrics

here is the brick walk

aqua is still a popular color and sells well

still not sure about this one

but I love the two below

these blues and greens are soothing

a little bit of sophistication with the earth green circles

gotta have a little bit of fanciful color and pattern from sis boom

there's that geometric again

and the lollipop trees

what child did not make lollipop trees in school art class?

gotta have some fun with the safety pins

and a little floral, but not to sweet

just plain earthy

and summer ...

I emerged from hibernation briefly last week,

working a three night power work session to finish a big order

that is going to Florida.

Finished in the nick of time.

Now back to knitting.
