So many pictures, so little time!
Post-market continues to be as demanding as pre-market.
First, our LakeHouse Dry Goods website is now displaying the new Fall 2007 fabric swatches, whoopee! We are still tweaking the small details (this has been A PAIN with every new project), because on my MAC screen, I see something completely different than my PC based web designer. So if you see things that are out of wack...we're working on it! Sharon, get your paper & pencil ready!
And, before the scent of market runs cold, here are a few more pictures...
That's Tammy Tadd's "To Market,To Market Apron" on the Left, the Threaded Pear's Bull's Eye Quilt in Pink and Yellow, My Cherry Squares (Hint: that's one piece of the LH 07005: Robin colored fabric in the center an inner & outer border, a few covered buttons & some ric rac). The bags are from Penny, Pam Kitty & Tammy. The tiered apron is by Jan Lutz "The Apron Lady" of Threaded Pear. The bears Lenya, Alex and Kara are bringing you the letters L, A & K!
Tammy's Girlie Girl bag again, with Penny's bags, little Boo & Honey Bear in the blue chairs, that darn "Alphabet Soup" quilt again and Erin, Heidi, Oona & Uma bringing you the letters E, H, O & U...
Sugar & Emmie round out the right end of the display with S & E, oh and that's Pudge on the lower left, with more bags by Penny, Tammy & Pam Kitty. The pillowcase was made for Penny's granddaughter Camille. My Cherry Quilt made with JUMBO covered buttons (so easy to make!) was pretty much the hit of the show for us... seriously, we got more compliments on that quilt than anything else. I could have sold it to several different magazines too...We had great luck with some of the "Quilt World's" most tasty magazines...much more on that later. On the right is Elizabeth Scott's Simple Spring Rosebuds quilt, another version of Tammy's new apron, and another cute child's apron done in the new LH 07015: Petal fabric from Jan Lutz!
We've just scratched the surface of my Fall 2007 Quilt Market Photo Album, so come back soon, y'all!
Tomorrow's my day to visit all of the quilt blogs I love and return my correspondence...Thanks so much for all of the kind thoughts and compliments on the booth...most of you know by now that it's the most fun thing I do of all of the tasks at hand here at LHDG!
Back in two shakes...H2
Love the cherries quilt - surprised? Although I don't 'work' in this style, I love it, especially if those cherries are stuffed and the leaves are dimensional! I hope all those bears have a good hope and are not stuck in a crate all year :-)

The cherry quilt is indeed DARLING. I'm a pink person and it makes perfect sense to make the cherries pink. Is this a pattern that is available?

Jean,
All of the project patterns from Fall 07 market will be available in early 2008 when the new LakeHouse fabric arrives in the stores.
I'll keep everyone posted on this.
We'll also be putting downloadable "click & print" project sheets up on the website in the next week or so. Then you can take them into your local IQS, and get exactly what you need.
Thanks for asking!
Best,
H2
