Will Work For Fabric

I'm home from the shoot! Got home last night and promptly fell ill. Now I'm coughing like it's in fashion. Blech.

Anyway, we realised that while we were on the shoot, quilters everywhere we were getting very excited about the new fabrics Denyse had released at Joann's.

By the way when she told me she was doing so, I was like "WHAT? Are you serious? No way! WHAT!?!", and she laughed saying that was the usual reaction. But I told her as long as the fabrics are of good quality, then who cares where they're being sold... right?


Seeing as I was helping out at the shoot as a favour, Denyse presented me with this bundle of the new line. She did say there were some in there that could only be found in Australia, and since I'm not so familiar with the line yet, I have no idea which ones.

No idea what I'll do with them quite yet, but all I know is the quilt made will live with me!

So pretty. I've been petting them more than I care to admit to.

Has anyone gotten their hands on this line?

  6. Nice pile! Have an awesome weekend with them!

    Spread them out pretty in a picture for us. I bought some green/blues and the pinks. I think the yellows and some of the reds are Australian. Exciting!
    Check my blog for some swatches!

  10. I would love to see more! I agree w/ Lucia. It looks like the stack on the left is the ones not found here. At least not yet!

  15. You crack me up! And Julie's right - you better put those Australia prints in a safety deposit box. People are already at the point of rabid insanity about all this.
