I'm very excited to share some great news with you.
I am grateful to be working with an amazing fabric company Clothworks for approximately 8 years.
From their website:
"Clothworks is located in beautiful Seattle, Washington. We sell wholesale to the retail trade only. Look for our fabrics, with the Clothworks board-end label, in independent quilt shops all over the United States and internationally".
Working with Clothworks has been one of the best experiences in my many years of licensing my artwork. I have valued our long term relationship and always look forward to each collection we create together.
Clothworks has been sharing some of their profits for years with a great nonprofit organization "Quilts for Kids". You can read about this here.
I believe this is a wonderful organization that helps children in a unique and beautiful way. I also had the opportunity of meeting the founder Linda who I adore and she is a true inspiration to me. Please read her story. I am honored and delighted to announce that I will be donating 100% of the royalties I will earn from my Sea Shanty collection to this wonderful nonprofit organization. I'm thrilled to be partnering with them on this project.
If you are a fabric store owner and would like to purchase this collection please contact
Clothworks direct.
If you are inspired and would like to help this organization click here and go to "How to Help" bottom.
If you are a consumer and are looking to purchase this fabric for your quilt projects it will be shipping to on line quilt stores and local fabric shops around March 2014.
Thank you for purchasing this fabric to help Quilts for Kids!
I'm so excited, I was a guest blogger over at the Jolly Jabber blog on the Fat Quarter Shop website. I shared what inspired me to create the Peppermint Lane fabric for Clothworks.
If you are a quilter, and decide to make something with this fabric, I would love to feature it on my blog and on my Facebook page. Please let me know if you have anything you want to share. I thank you from the bottom of my heart, for purchasing fabric with my art on it!
As shared by Susie from Clothworks ......
"Valentine’s Day to roll around. I can’t get enough of that holiday. I love red and pink. I love hearts, candy, sweetness and all that comes with it. And, for any naysayers, it’s not just for people in love–my favorite Valentines come from my Mom! The day will be here before we know it, so I know this kit is a little late to get done for Valentine’s Day proper, but if you hustle, you might be able to get it done. You’ll get a big stack of Hug Me fabric by Sue Zipkin and a pattern to sew it all up called Kiss Me by Meags and Me. All you’ve gotta do is leave a comment here and if you’ve got an account, share this post on Facebook to give all your friends a chance to win, too! Contest ends next Tuesday, January 30th, at midnight."
GOOD LUCK!!!
If you have HEART, you may want to join this blog hop
featuring a Valentine Theme, and my collection HUG ME will
be featured as well as Clothworks is the sponsor.
You can create anything you like as long it is in the theme..
Post your heartfelt desire here..

Clothworks’ Great Quilt Giveaway: Pin it to Give it!.
I'm so excited and grateful, to be receiving this adorable Halloween bag. This was created using my gone hunting fabric. This beauty was created by Simone de Klerk .
Simone has been so kind to me. I'm not really good at keeping up with this blog, and that sort of thing, and when I do manage to post Simone has been so sweet and kind with comments over the years. She is from the Netherlands, a different world, it is amazing how you can make a kind friend so many wiles away that you never even meet. I was totally blown away to hear that she made me this adorable bag. Thank you so much Simone, I will treasure it always!
This beauty is currently in transit, I can't wait to see it and start my Halloween a little early this year!
You can see more great pictures of this on Simone's blog. Look at all of the details and fun features!!!
Hello everyone in blog land!
I haven't been doing a very good job keeping up with my blog. I hope all those who are reading this are doing well. I was invited as a guest blogger to jabber on the Jolly Jabber about my new Poinsettia collection, by Clothworks.
I did not realize that the post went live, it went up last week.
You can purchase the fabric collection not the The Fat Quarters Shop, and other online and local shops. Clothworks is offering this free fun project, found here, by Stephanie Sims.
Thanks & Happy Quilting!
Check out my latest interview with the Jolly Jabber. I am talking about Froggin' . You can purchase some at the Fat Quarter Shop online.
I discovered a wonderful blog, Jeanette creates all kinds of beautiful things, please check out her blog. I was so excited when I found her Gone Haunting pirate pants. These PJs are not just to be enjoyed at Halloween, they make great attire to wear to your next pirate party. I just adore them and the fun pictures she took. Jeanette thank you so much for letting me share the pictures on my blog, your baby is adorable also.
As much as I adore my little mini trick or treat bag, I was just talking about how fun it would be to see a large Trick-or-Treat bag. It was magic. Stacy Lindblom the quilter extraordinaire who created this fun filled project, whipped up this fun bag. I love it!!! I hope Stacy has a fabulous time filling it up with all kinds of yummy treats! Thanks for sharing it Stacy!!
Halloween is approaching us, and everybody needs their own special trick-or-treat bag. I was excited to receive this little surprise in the mail from Clothworks. This was a sample that was on display at the last quilt market. It imagine it needs to be filled with some candy, I might be too old to go trick-or-treating, so I guess I will have to collect my son's leftovers. It is a dirty job but someone has to do it.
We went apple/pumpkin picking this weekend, here in New York we had beautiful summer weather. I felt a little disoriented looking at all of the pumpkins in the patch, being how warm it was, no complaints here I love the warm weather.
Freash picked pumpkins.
You can do a search for the gone haunting fabric and buy it online or call your local shop to see if they have it in stock. I would love to see a large trick or treat bag made from the fabric so anyone who creates one please send it over to I can share it on my blog.
Happy Haunting!
I love the Fat Quarter Shop, they have such a beautiful online shop. I am so grateful when they purchase my fabric from Clothworks and ask for me to guest blog.
Check out Cool Cats at the Fat Quarter Shop and the blog post here.
I would like to introduce Stacy Lindblom, she has come for a visit and she brings a lovely story and a beautiful quilt design using my Gone Haunting fabric.
Thanks so much to Sue Zipkin for asking me to be a guest blogger. Not only has she inspired me to make a beautiful quilt but she's inspired me to begin blogging again (it's been about a year since my last post). My name is Stacy Lindblom and I've been an avid 'fabric collector' since I was a little girl. Beads, buttons, ribbons......all are lovely but fabric is my true love. I started sewing clothes for my dolls as soon as I could hold a needle and thread and I began quilting about ten years ago. I'm in my forties now and wish I hadn't waited all those years to 'find' quilting. But trust me, I've made up for lost time. My stash is HUGE!!
I was surfing the Jolly Jabber one day and came across Sue's Halloween fabric, Gone Haunting. I instantly fell in love with this funky, fabulous fabric line! I immediately emailed Sue and let her know that I couldn't wait to get my hands on Gone Haunting. She asked me to please send her a picture of my project so here it is!
I adore Halloween and each year, my husband and I throw a Halloween party at our house. We have friends and family come from far away to attend the party stay the night with us. I've made about a dozen Halloween quilts so each guest gets to sleep under a different spooky quilt. The pattern is called Parking Lot (named by my husband because he thinks that's what it looks like) and it's my first try at putting a pattern together.
I hope you enjoy the quilt. I love it and this one will be laying on MY bed this year!
Stacy
