Ribbon, patterns and quilt festival news.

I just received the cutest new ribbon from Tausendschön in Germany... and they sent me some this fun  lollipop with my order! Haven't seen this kind of candy since I was about... 10?

I am in love with this ribbon! Darling design!

 

I already listed it in my etsy shop.
Thanks to my friend Terri who keeps me up to date on the German ribbon market, hehe!!


Speaking about patterns... I stumbled across this wonderful pattern shop on etsy, 'sewingwithme', selling patterns for tons of cute baby shoes!

I LOVE LOVE the Echino Mary Janes!!! You can make such stinkin' cute shoes for baby girls!!! And I am so excited because I will be getting in a HUGE GIGANTIC KOKKA shipment either today or tomorrow... with some Echino dots, too... though not in 'gold'.

I ordered the Baby Boots pattern with the three buttons (she even has a pattern for baby-wellingtons, hehe!) and will let you know how it turned out! Can't wait to try, but it will probably take a few days until I get around to it.
The owner has a couple of pattern shops apparently, and she even sells a pattern for a metal frame purse I have always wanted to try, but never managed to figure out.
 

I am so glad I found this shop!! I will be busy!
OH, and not to forget!! Sue, the owner, even allows you to sell items made with her patterns!!! Provided you give her full credit, of course! Isn't that great??

AND... have y'all seen? The Bloggers' Quilt Festival is coming up again! Can't wait to see all the wonderful quilts!




Be sure to head over to Amy Park City Girl's blog, and submit your quilts and win some fabric!


See you there!!
