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 am off to Quilt Market, I leave tomorrow morning and I won’t be back for about a week or so. I will have so much to show you that your heads will explode! It’s going to be fantastic, I swear.

In my absence I am leaving you with this… A lovely little Etsy shop, appropriately named KatinkaPinka, is making these adorable wrap skirts out of Nest. I think they are the best! I have bought a lot of jewelry from her store, she has great style and chickens! She lives in a pink Victorian house with her chickens, 2 magic bunnies, a bunch of kitties, 3 pups, some finches and a dove. Say what? That sounds like some sort of Tula Pink fantasy park! Maybe my next fabric collection will be a KatinkaPinka tribute collection. Hmmm, I will get started on that, after Quilt Market that is.

I will see some of you this weekend and the rest of you when I get back but I will never stop thinking about you.
