The postman has been very good to me lately as there was another nice box of goodies waiting for me when I got home from work on Friday. I know my stash is quite large enough, but when my friend, Virginia Odien’s fabric collection “Hello Sunshine” was finally released through Connecting Threads there was no hesitation that it would be the newest addition!
The prints are gorgeous on screen and even more gorgeous in person. The colors are vibrant and happy and I can almost feel the summer breeze on my face when I look at them. I’m so excited I had to post some photos even though I haven’t had a chance to make anything yet. I was quite greedy and bought fat quarters of everything, plus additional yardage of “Sunkissed Flowers” as I knew from the minute I saw them that they were destined to be little girl’s dresses… too sweet!
You can get to know a little more about her through a fantastic interview she gave on Spoonflower, or by checking out her blog.
Here are some of the fabulous projects that Connecting Threads posted on their website, and you can see even more, by clicking on the catalog link at the bottom of their page…
