Plume
And just when you thought I was done… It seems I can’t stop coming up with new stuff. The 6th installment, that’s right 6th, of the Tula Pink saga is here, in sample form anyway. Hushabye should be shipping to stores anytime now so while you are rushing off to purchase that wonderland of critter joy let me introduce you to what’s driving down the barrel at an alarming pace. I call her Plume. I just received my sample swatches and thought I might commemorate the occasion before I start hacking it to pieces to make my quilt for market. I love this collection almost as much as I love myself. It’s bright and happy and fresh and organic, sort of like a hippy but cleaner. It’s possibly the best drawing I have ever done. To finally see it in living color fills me with such geeker joy that I am even willing to feed all of the stray cats that are milling around my yard. I know that means they will come back, it may cost me a fortune in kitty kibble but I just don’t care. Milk for everyone!
And please, how dang cute is that selvage? A little Fleur De Lis instead of the oh-so-boring standard dot? Will the cuteness ever end? I say no. Cuteness will endure for ever and ever. Amen.

I love your Plume fabric in green background with red/pink feathers! When will this fabric be available and where may I purchase it? Cost per yard?
August 30th, 2009 at 1:59 pm
Thanks Kathi!
Plume will start shipping to stores in January, at least that’s what I hear. It is being sold to shops by the sales reps right now so if you want it at your local shop, now is the time to let them know.

Oh my, we are still swooning from the cuteness of Hushabye! Will we cope, or will we die of cuteness overload?! Just stunning. Your line “I love this collection almost as much as I love myself” has made my day - too funny!

That is certainly the cat’s meow.
The selvage is the bomb!
August 30th, 2009 at 3:26 pm
I hope you never stop coming up with new stuff, I love it all! My husband is probably the only one that wishes you would stop, but that’s just his pocket book talking so we ignore it ;).
I really love the blue feathers on pink!
August 30th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
Amazing - I am just in love with that feather!
August 30th, 2009 at 4:11 pm

August 30th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
You are killing me. Killing me softly, with your fabric.
This is amazing!!! And I was just salivating over Hushabye too! And I scored a couple flutterby fat quarters the other day!
August 30th, 2009 at 5:55 pm
So beautiful!!! I got myself a Hushabye layer cake and while I’m dying to cut into it, I’m absolutely dreading it too lol Can’t wait for Plume
August 30th, 2009 at 6:19 pm
Oh, my heavenly DAYS, that floral is gorgeous!! Wow - I seriously can’t wait to see all of the beautifulness!!
August 30th, 2009 at 7:16 pm
Wow, you are one of the few women I’ve ever read/heard say they love themselves. Good for you. And just for that I become a full-fledged fan.
August 30th, 2009 at 7:29 pm
Well… crap… I mean… just when I thought I could save money for a new machine… now I have to save a thousand or two to buy every inch of this I can find… it is utterly perfect.
August 30th, 2009 at 7:54 pm
WOW!!!
August 30th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
I know what I’ll be dreaming about tonight….what to make with these fabrics! Good work!

Absolutely GORGEOUS! Love it!

Oh how you tease me. I can’t wait for this to hit stores. It’s breathtakingly beautiful.
August 31st, 2009 at 2:38 am
Lovely range! I can’t wait to see it in the shops.
I’m just a little concerned that all of those cats might eat the birdies, leaving only feathers

August 31st, 2009 at 11:31 am
Love the fabric! What beats cats for cuteness? NOTHING!! Feeding them may just give you some kitty muses to help you design! Love the selvage too.

September 1st, 2009 at 1:02 pm
I don’t know what took me so long to find your blog but your projects are darling. I can’t wait to see what you are coming up with. Moda sent me some of your Hushabye fabric to do a tutorial with, it was so fun t work with I only wish they would have sent more.

Gorgeous! The colors are amazing!!!

This is absolutely the most gorgeous fabric I’ve EVER seen! You are an incredible artist and I just felt so compelled to tell you so. I’m wishing, wishing, wishing I knew how to sew right now! Maybe by the time this hits stores…it’s certainly great motivation!
The colors, the modern take on a traditional floral, the graphic elements, it’s BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
