Joel Dewberry's gorgeous new line "Modern Meadow." 

As you may have already heard me mention, I am infatuated with these!!! I am racking my brain for the perfect project to feature them in but I just can't narrow it down to one. 

They are so beautiful with a modern simplicity but a very nostalgic feel. The tiny flowers make me feel happy and I just wish I could be sitting in that sweet meadow right now, wearing a springy little dress made from these dreamy fibers. 

And an adorable, mixed grouping from Michael Miller. 

I didn't know these had come in and when I spotted them on the self yesterday, I immediately pulled them down to shoot pictures. Saying out loud 'Oh my goodness' and 'Ohh, these are so cute' and 'Oh I love these so much' and 'awwww.' Janelle must have thought I'd lost it, but they really are just too precious (and with that she agrees)!!!

I'm also brainstorming on what to make from these little critter prints... Aelyn does need some new spring skirts.... as if I don't have enough on my to do list already! Ahhh... 

If only I had about 10 more hours in my day... I'd be sewing up a storm!

I'm currently working on my first ever quilt, a Dresden plate. I am taking Mary's class and desperately trying to keep up, while I choose to make mine extra large! There is lots of hand sewing to be done and it is currently occupying all of my sewing time. But it's looking pretty good thus far and I know the final result will be very rewarding.

Well now I'm gonna hop off to do a little of that right now, while my little ladies still napping!

'til next time,

:) April

Welcome Home Nicey Jane (and I stalked the UPS man)

Nicey Jane has arrived.

I said it before and I'll say it again; I love the UPS man!

Yesterday, my UPS obsession reached new heights. The waiting became to much to bear. I circled the neighborhood in search of his ride. That big brown truck is so dreamy... I finally found him outside our neighbors place.  I caught him as he was coming out and asked him if had anything for us. So sweetly, he looked up from his pda and said, "yes, four", and that he'd be over in about 20 minutes.

Seriously, it's like Christmas every time he wheels his silver dolly up to our front door. Four cardboard boxes piled high. And yay, it's Heather Bailey!

Gorgeous. Just as we expected.

I love the mustards, pinks, greens and mmmm the chartreuse (our current favorite color). I especially need this brilliant broken stripe print she's titled Welcome Road.  A full drop-waist skirt or perhaps a tulip skirt must be made from this!

Oh P.S. Mister UPS man said he'll give us his cell number so I don't have to stalk him around his route any more.     :)
