Good things Do come in Small Packages!

Shortly after arriving at work today, the UPS man arrived. Can I just tell you, we love our man in brown! Today he was carrying only one small box, so he was greeted with the usual banter..."What? That's it?" Much to his relief...that was in fact..."It." But inside the box. was the new issue of Quilting Celebrations...which is reason enough for some excitement! A magazine filled with "fun and festive projects" by Patrick Lose. So, of course, I have to flip through the magazine quickly to see what Patrick has come up with for this issue. As usual...no disappointments here! Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years projects! The magazine also has recipes and other fun stuff. As I'm flipping through the magazine....I find I have been quoted TWICE! Patrick had posted some questions on his Facebook page that I had responded to! So technically...it's just my first name....but I squealed with delight...okay, probably more of a shrill scream (sorry to my co-worker, Lesley as she was standing right beside me). It was a thrill for me!  I'm not going to tell you what I was quoted as saying...you'll just have to buy your copy to see!!

If you are not familiar with Patrick Lose fabrics....let me introduce you to a few of my favorites! (truly...i can't choose just one) Patrick currently has several lines of fabric available in your local quilt shops and online. If you are looking for great blenders to accent a print, Patrick's fabrics are a great place to start.

Monochromatix - 46 different colors!  Can you believe that?  These fabrics are so much fun.  I think I love every single color!





Dot to Dot - Now, I have to say...the photo just doesn't do justice to the actual fabric.  Every color of this Dot to Dot is rich and vibrant.



Luminescence - Um, yeah...the name really speaks for itself, doesn't it?





Scribbles Meander - I love this line too...and I love every single color....and there are so many colors to choose from.  Every one is bright and cheery.




Fizz - This line makes me feel good...and again...I love every single color!  And I'm pretty sure I have several of those colors in my stash!





Satinesque - Okay...I am totally head over heels in love with this line.  It has to be my most favorite of Patrick's fabrics.  So beautiful.





If you can't find these fabrics at your local quilt shop, you can visit Patrick's  page
