Another update!!!!!

So, I spoke with my editor, Judy P. from Kansas City Star.  We had a wonderful conversation.  Wasn't too long, she has the flu.  I was given some deadlines: everything has to be in by the begining of March.....AHHHHHHHH!!! No worries, I can get it done.  I did finish writing the instructions. (except for 3)  I just keep changing which patterns to put in the book.  I initially had 14, then 10, then 12, now I am at 11 projects.  My plan of action now is to gather my girlfriends to help me get the stitching done.  Here are the fabrics I will be using, all MARCUS FABRICS.

and some more drawings

 

and here are some pics of the quilts designs

Let me know what you think....have a wonderful weekend

Book update!!!!!!!!!!!!

So tomorrow I speak with one of the editors....from some of the basic info I have been given, it's going to be a very quick process....I still do not have a title as of right now, I do have all the directions written, but 5...that is if I stop redesigning stuff.  The book is scheduled for release in May at Quilt Market.  I will have more infomation by tomorrow afternoon and will get more pics up.

Well another year down.  Last year was very successful for me.  I met a lot of wonderful people who loved my patterns.  I never thought that I would touch so many so deeply.  Every last person was part of my success.  Thank you all so much and I can't wait to share with you what I have planned.for 2013.

Time flies!!!!!!!

I can't believe it's almost Christmas....and we are almost in a new year....
I have been recovering from a shoulder injury, so time has been crawling for me.  You don't really realize how much you use your muscles until you have an injury.  It's slow going, but I have been able to catch up on my TIVO.  I'm still working on my book.  I can't wait to show you some of the designs.  I will post soon.

Working hard

I have been working hard on the new book.  I have desgned everything and am satisfied with my choices.  I am hoping I will be able to share some designs with you soon.  A little sneek peek.......and I have tons of new quilt patterns I am working on, hoping to have them released next year as well.  I have some dolls I designed and I usually sell them at quilt shows.  I will post some pics, let me know what you think and I will get them up on etsy this week as well.

Keep stitching,
Lola
