At LONG last, the solid Aqua Twill has cleared customs and arrived safely at our warehouse in South Carolina.  The color is GORGEOUS and definitely worth of the wait.  If you are looking for individual yardage head to Stitch Simple (it's so new they may not have it listed yet but you can definitely still order from them).  If you are wanting a full 50+ yards contact me. 

ALSO... DATE CHANGE!!  SHARK TANK featuring our own Hot Mama will air THIS FRIDAY April 22nd at 8pm ET on ABC.  I know where I will on Friday night! 

Mark your calendar or set your PVR!  Diedrea Haysel, founder of Hot Mama Gowns will be on ABC'S Reality Show "Shark Tank" April 29th at 8pm ET.  Hot Mama Gowns use Harmony Art organic fabrics exclusively in their line of 100% Organic Cotton hospital maternity gowns.

I know where I will be on the last Friday night in April! 

This is the 15th year that the Pacific Piecemakers Quilt Guild (PPQG) has challenged its members to create quilts around a common theme.  The theme this year is "Rhapsody in Hue."  The show is up through May 1st at the Gualala Arts Center in Gualala, CA.  There are currently 86 quilts on display! 

This is my entry titled:  Hue Knew.  It would not have been possible without the assistance, support and collaboration of Jen Madsen of Stitch Simple.  THANK YOU JEN!

Hue Knew . . .

Hue Knew when I designed this print that the color would shift with each print run?
Hue Knew it would get lighter, then darker then lighter again?
Hue Knew that the line weight would change even though the art work hadn’t?
Hue Knew that you would approve a strike off and receive something else?
Hue Knew India would have better quality control than South Carolina?
Hue Knew that the hand of pigments and dyes were so different?
Hue Knew 110” wide fabric would be such a stumbling block?
Hue Knew a non-sewer could actually get a quilt designed and made?
Hue Knew Jen, Carol and Marilyn would be willing to help me bring this story to life?
Hue Knew Harmony Art would be so challenging and also so rewarding?

Who knows what’s next?
