One of my “babies” arrived home, along with my sample issue of McCall’s April/May 2011!

“A Box of Chocolates” is featured on page 8 and am thrilled!

I think they did a great job with the photography.  This quilt was fun – usually I plan out where every fabric will go in my quilts down to the last detail, but I just winged it with this one and was plesed with the result.  Kimberly, at Fat Quarter Shop, has kits ready to go.  Some SKUs of Swiss Chocolate are selling out, so make sure you hop over and claim your kit before they are gone if you are interested.

And just in case you prefer mocha, your latte might look like this…

Happy sewing!

Look what I found over the weekend at Sew Much Fun…

They have a lovely sheen and coordinate perfectly with my collection that will debut at Market – both the warm and cool color stories!  Can’t wait to design with them.

I also picked up these new charm square templates.  They are 5″ so would work perfectly with charms or ten squares. 

I’m interested in seeing how they can be used in combination with eachother. What a great idea for precuts!  (But also for scraps, which we have a lot of around here.)  I’ll be posting some small, simple projects as I experiment with these tools.

Hope you had a good weekend!
