My Favorite Things...213...Periwinkle Blue

It's been one thing after another since I returned home from Spring Quilt Market.  So I have a little catching up to do...

First, I had to laugh when the 2nd person who answered my question about my dinner party guest was right...it was Pam Kitty.  She was so much fun. (I didn't announce the winner right away, because I was so curious to see who you'd guess!)  Leslie, please contact me, so you can claim your prize.

Second, our new Penelope Collection panels & flag style swatch pages are up on our website as of today!  Hint:  Just click your mouse anywhere on the panel page and you'll get to the swatch pages behind it.  Click here to see more of Penelope 1 & 2.  Click here to see Penelope 1 & 3.

Third, the Fun Flowers 4 page is up on our website too.  Click here to see lots more info about our new totes on bolts* panel sets, and Penny's projects too. There's even a free pattern to make a cute lap sized quilt with our new Pinwheel Party Panel (LH 10027), on the same page.

Fourth, my Whirlwind quilt is in McCall's Quilting July / August issue.  I'm just crazy about the this little quilt. It's so girlie!  Here's a sneak peek at part of the article...Isn't it the cutest photo?

Debbie & Kimberly over at the Fat Quarter Shop are kitting of this quilt...Click here for the kit and the backing fabric.

I have also done several more colorations of the Whirlwind quilt using bunch of other fabrics from the Dolly Dresses 2 & 3 Collections (that are in your local quilt shops stores now).  You can see them on the Dolly Dresses 2 & 3 project page by clicking here. 

Kudos to Martha Hall for helping me out with this quilt, she's a savant with anything made of fabric, and lord knows I don't get a lot of time to actually make up projects myself these days. I'd be up a creek without a panel, if not for all of the talented friends I've made since starting LHDG in 2003.

I'll have some big EXCITING announcements coming up and lots more prizes to go with the announcements, so come back soon, won'cha?

Back in two shakes...

where can I purchase the flower fabric used in the Daisy Basket Mini Tote?

Hi Holly ... I am a big fan from Australia. One of my first quilts that I ever finished was made from your Hydrangea range.

I was wondering if you could help me. I am very keen to buy your fabrics, and wondering if they were available in charm packs? I am currently studying, and can't afford to buy much fabric but would love to be able to continue to use your beautiful designs!

Looking forward to a (hopefully positive) response, and with many thanks, Kim :-)
