:: it's almost here ::

I wanted to thank all of you for your comments about the fabric and boy, do I wish that I could have all of you come to my house for a fabric folding and rolling party!  What fun that would be!  But, alas, I did get some help from my mom and dad, who came a rolled all of the new fabric onto bolts for me.  There are still rolls left from the last two fabric lines waiting to be finished, but at least there was a bit of headway.

But, right now, what's on my mind is this........ and it all starts tomorrow morning at 6 am!

I'm a bit late in getting the details out, but in case you waited to hear it from me, here's what you need to know:

Bookmark the lineup of designers below and be sure to check their blog on that day, because there will be a FREE project for you to download.  In addition, you don't want to forget about reading the other 9 blogs for the day, because we will each be sharing pictures and thoughts on the topic-of-the-day.  And everything is related to our theme, Fall-O-Ween.  But don't let this scare you.....

I don't have any idea where Gudren got this lovely picture of me.  Well, I guess that's really a lie because I can tell it was at Quilt Market.  But sheesh!  I don't ever remember wearing a hat like that!

I'm planning on keeping my posts short and sweet, so hopefully you will have time to read all 10 blogs each day.  The last time was so much fun, getting to know the other designers and reading their stories.  Oh, and we're all donating lots of goodies for the GRAND PRIZE too.  To be eligible for the prize, all you have to do is leave a comment on each one of our blogs at least once while the hop is going on.  (No, you don't have to comment on all ten of them every day unless you want to.)

Here's the lineup......

I can't wait! I missed the last one, so I am really excited to know about this right from the start!

I can't wait for the hop to start, it is going to be fun.
We have rain coming and I hiked 6 miles through woods today, so sitting and computer activity will be enough for me, this week.

Autumn is my favourite time of year and orange is my favourite colour. Autumn feeds my creative side. Mother Nature is so inspiring at this time of year. One of my neighbours' 'smoke bushes' is bright red, it really stands out againt the green of their pine trees. Love the hat!
