Today is Sew, Mama, Sew!’s Giveaway Day so I thought I’d take part!
These are some of my scraps. Some are big and some are small. Drop me a comment with your two or three favorite colors (I would advise you stay clear of purple as I have no purple scraps!) and if you’re [...]
You know you’re obsessed with fabric when you have a dream that your one yard of gray Kei Dots was exposed to the H1N1 virus and you’re being required to mail it to the CDC. Yes. I actually had that dream. It was more of a nightmare, really! I’m sure that you readers can [...]
You are perfect.
Love, Alissa
Some beautiful Lantern Bloom fat quarters for my next quilt!
A commission that will have no white included! I’m so excited to be pushed out of my comfort zone with this fabric and quilt. Can’t wait to get started.

That photo isn’t so great but you can see the design… Here’s one with colors that are truer…
It’s been so long since I’ve finished a quilt. This little one makes me happy!
The back with a bit more of the amazing Far, [...]
