Castles and Carriages

Castles and Carriages are perfect for that little princess!  This fabric collection was really hard to show off.  I ended up taking these pictures with my camera and making a few collages so you can really see all the possibilities.

 This is actually a 24 inch panel, which I made into a collage...

And there is this beautiful damask in a pale yellow
This is really a stack of great fabrics for a LilyandEbony dress...

I cut the panel and used bits and pieces of it here and there, to make the front and back aprons.

I added some swarski crystals on the crowns for a little BLING!

Nicey Jane and LilyandEbony

If only I had a little more time, I would make samples of every fabric collection I buy for the AllegroFabrics Shop.  This little set is made from Nicey Jane by Heather Bailey.  It's a huge collection with prints of all sizes, so it was difficult to choose...and this little model is such a petite little one!  I made the set in a size 2.  I have decided to make a custom sized one under the LilyandEbony label.  I have it listed on Ebay, with many other pictures for you to look at.  Speaking of those pics, I think the photography is amazing!  It was probably about 50 degrees that day, too.  Seattle weather is like winter all year long!

My Last Day at Quilt Market

I took advantage of every minute, buying patterns to make samples, meeting with fabric reps to make AllegroFabrics selections, and having my website analyzed.  I loved Anna Maria Horner's Booth...full of color and inspiration, and of course, beautiful pics of her kids....How does she do it all..........
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/linda00000/IMG_6286.png?t=1274586169
.......And look this lovely?????
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v114/linda00000/IMG_6282.png?t=1274586435
I found some very interesting new patterns...This one from Oliva Ann Designs, looks difficult, but is not...great for using fat quarters, and comes with the cute leggings patterns, too.

What to do with a very long zipper....

Just for fun I had my AllegroFabrics Website analyzed.  It got a score of 98.3!  It was the highest of anyone at the market and I was over the top HAPPY.  I got some good advice on how to improve it...maybe in Houston I will get a perfect score!
