I bet you thought you’d never see it! Bunny Hill with wild fabric. And you thought I was all about shabby and chic. Well this designer has a bit of the fever and when I saw the new line called Woodland Bloom by Lila Tueller, a new designer at Moda Fabrics, it was screaming to me to please make me into _______! Ha, can’t tell you what I made it into yet. You’ll see soon enough. Thanks Lila for such beautiful, fun fabrics! http://lilatuellerdesigns.blogspot.com/

A sneak peek? OK but just a little one….and no it’s not really a flower quilt. Only two flowers on the entire quilt! You’ll have to wait just a bit longer…

Did you notice the wonderful machine applique done by my friend Anne? We use the DMC machine embroidery thread in both the bobbin and the top and the result is a thread that sinks right into the fabric. Cotton thread on cotton fabric. It just doesn’t get any better for machine applique.

And remember those stacks of fat quarters that Bridgette was cutting for me? Those beautiful Japanese Lecien fat quarters that I used in the “I Believe in Angel’s” Quilt?

Today she brought them back in neatly packaged bundles and they are now on my web site available for sale! 13 fat quarters of that hard to find fabric from Japan. http://bunnyhilldesigns.com/store/products/?category=30

Oh, and thank you all for your comments on my last post! I just love that word cuppa and now I have a new one to use “chinwag”. LOL! I do enough chinwagging for two people.

The caffeine is back in stock at Bunny Hill and my ironing board has been raised up 6 inches. I’m off to a good start this week.

Hugs and happy chinwagging,

Anne

Come on over for a cuppa! This is the new word I’ve learned from my Australian friends. I’m not really sure if a cuppa is a “cup of coffee” or if a cuppa can be anything, like a cuppa hot chocolate, a cuppa tea, a cuppa milk, or even a cuppa V8. Here’s my question…if a cuppa can be anything how do you know what you’re stopping by for? What if you don’t like it? All you Australian’s out there please enlighten us!

You may want to wait for later to stop by my house for a cuppa. Any cuppa you get around here this morning would be of the decaffeinated kind. YUCK! If your a coffee drinker you want the real thing not decaffeinated. If you don’t remember me telling you (maybe I didn’t because it makes me sound VERY spoiled), my husband does all the grocery shopping. I just make the list and try and keep my mouth shut if he forgets something. I know a good thing when I see one.

But decaffeinated coffee means a trip back to the store. No other way to look at it. I have to pay bills today and I can’t do that with a cuppa decaf. Nope, just doesn’t work and neither will I.

I know, I know, the caffeine isn’t good for us. But what can I say? It’s my only bad habit. LOL!

The good news is that my next fabric line is FINALLY off to New York. It’s a children’s line and it took forever to complete the drawings and choose the colors. Mooch tried to help but all she wanted was gray and yellow. I swear she’s trying to match the color of her eyes with these color cards.

In case you’re wondering if I’m EVER going to do a new floral line the answer is a definite YES. I’m working on it already and it will be introduced at Spring Market. I promise you will love both of my next lines. I’m so excited about them! Children first, then the grownups.

Oh and before I forget, to all of you who have kindly emailed me, my RSS feed at the top is now working again!

I’ll pay bills as soon as I have some coffee. That’s right, I pay the bills, husband does the grocery shopping. If you’re in Safeway in Discovery Bay today say hi! He’ll be there for sure. (:

Hugs,

Anne
