Happy Friday everyone!
Well, I have a little news for you...I am really excited to say that I am now a part of the Blend Fabrics team of designers! My new fabric collection, Hope Chest {see the artwork image in the top corner for a sneak peak!} will be debuting at Quilt Market in May. And to top it all off, I'll be attending Quilt Market for the first time on Friday, May 18th! I thought I'd give you a little sneak peek into my fabric collection with images from my mood board, which I create to help keep me on track with my over all theme when designing.

Blend is the new licensing division of Anna Griffin, Inc. I've been a long time admirer Anna Griffin's work for as long as I can remember..years!...back in the days when I was designing wedding invitations on the side and dreaming I would do that for a living......{well, until I met a bride-zilla and realized I liked creating beauty but not dealing with the beast! But that's another story!}

I've always loved Anna's take on product. Her designs are timeless and beautiful and have always been pushing the envelope and paving new paths. I'm just so overjoyed to be a part of such a company and to be a part of such a wonderful team of people. So going forward, my fabric collections with be with Blend Fabrics. Exciting!!

Also, I'm SO excited to attend and experience Quilt Market! I've always wanted to attend, so I'm really excited for the chance to go and be surrounded by pattern, fabric and people. Please do stop by the Blend Fabrics booth to say 'hello' on Friday, May 18th. I'd LOVE to meet you!
