That time of year

I love days like this. The opening of packages feels just like Christmas. Maybe even better.

The box is already empty and sorted into piles. The next few weeks will be a whirlwind of activity while I get ready for market. But at least I have a few weeks. Usually I push it to the very last minute.

Ok, time to get back to work. No vacations for me right now. Well, kinda.  :o)

We are YOUNG!!!

I had to take a tiny break once my book was finished- but I'm back! And I have some fun to share with you.

A few weeks back I heard that Andalucia - my favorite Patty Young collection- was coming back in new colors! I called MMF right away to see if I could get my hands on a few prints.

I just LOVE the blues, teals, and greens. They are gorgeous. There's also some fun pink, ornage and browns too. I paired the cool hues with some cotton couture solids to match.

I can't wait to show you what I've been making!

Market is just around the corner so I'm going to be quite the busy bee around here.

GEARED FOR GUYS- now in PDF!

I just made a listing for the 'GEARED FOR GUYS' PDF version pre-order on my Etsy. The price is the same as the paper pre-order, but without the shipping charge.

I will not be releasing the PDF until the paper books are being shipped to keep it fair for everyone. If you have any questions, please email me and let me know.

HAPPY EASTER!!!

The time has come

The time is NOW!!!

To run over to my Etsy shop and pre-order your copy of

GEARED for GUYS!!!

 

I'm offering it for a limited time at a discounted price

(you know, since you have to wait for shipping and all.)

 

Here's the best part- when I get it formatted correctly (by the end of the week) I will also have it available as a PDF!!!  The price will be the same it is now on the Etsy, but obviously NO SHIPPING!!!
