It is time for the Spring Trade show, called Quilt Market!
My life is a bit crazy.... New Moda fabric line, New Aurifil thread kit to go with it, new Block of the Month called "Red Apple Lane" with Bigfork Bay, new pieced patterns... and a few other things might end up in the mix!
It all comes together a few weeks prior to the show... And I had a LOT Of help this time!! Thank you to Cindy, Victoria, Lina, Susan and Sherry for all stitching for me!!!
- I have a school house session on just my things on Thursday and I will be in the BIG Moda schoolhouse.. PLUS I have an Aurifil Designer of the Month schoolhouse ... all on Thursday .. which ends with Sample Spree!
- Then I'll be in Moda Land booth 124 area (look for me!)
- Friday I'm in the booth ALL DAY.
- Saturday and Sunday I'll be doing radio show interviews and in the booth.
- Check my chalkboard for my return time.. I don't want to miss you!
So here are the details you NEED to send to your quilt shop.
If you ARE a quilt shop.. you NEED to get ordering.. wink!
I know you'd like to see the REAL quilt.. so would I... I'm qulting it AS YOU READ THIS.. yes I am! As soon as it's done I'll share photos.. check back!
- My new fabric line with Moda is called "Eat Your Fruits and Veggies". do you SEE the adorable edge with the little TOMATOS!!!! How cute is that! Fabric delivers in the FALL.
- My fabric is a BATIK and COTTON line... fun fun fun to mix them up!
- My New Block of the Month is called "Red Apple Lane" published by Bigfork Bay Cotton Company. Patterns will be ready in about a month.
- Aurifil has 2 collections of thread, one big spools, one small spools... that work with my fabric!

I was just wondering does this diet actually work?
It sounds logical but things often do when people are trying to convince you of them.
. Has anyone tried it? How was it for you?.

I so LOVE Red Apple Lane. I am a vegetarian and constantly "trying" to eat healthy and exercise. I want to make this quilt for my kitchen to help remind me how wonderful I feel when I eat healthy and exercise! Thanks so much for making such a beautiful inspiring design!

It's all beautiful Pat! I'm a gardener and my daughter is, too. I think this would make a delightful wall hanging for the kitchen!

I'm looking at that cherry fabric on white, and I think that would be the most awesome curtain fabric for my little kitchen window. and, of course, I would have to make myself a little apron, too!

LOVE the new fabric line and patterns. I have always loved your fabric lines because they seem to play so well with other fabric lines, they're unique, and fun. Looks like more must have fabrics!

Fun! Maybe my weight loss struggle wouldn't be so bad if I devised an incentive like this...reward myself with Pat Sloan food fabric for every weight loss goal met? what do ya think?Wink. I am sticking to ACTUAL coffee though, no fabric or virtual version could come close to my favorite cuppa joe! Have fun in Kansas!
