Sew Cherry...

Does this fabric look familiar? I told you about it in this post.
It's my new fabric line..."Sew Cherry".

I was so thrilled beyond words to open up the first fat quarter on top of the bundle and to see my name on the selvedge...(so thrilled that I didn't even take the time to iron it first)....

Last week I got a phone call from Jina at Riley Blake telling me that a shipment had arrived with my name on it!


Whooo-hoooo!


One each of the pre-cuts of Sew Cherry were sent from the factory...now I can begin to stitch up some yummy projects and new patterns in time for Spring Market.

May will be coming up fast and I'm so excited that market will be held right here in Salt Lake City!

I received a jelly roll...

A layer cake and a charm pack...


Along with a fat quarter bundle.


I am over the top happy with how every piece turned out.
My fingers are just itchin to get stitchin!
Of course all of it will also be available in yardage along with the pre-cuts in quilt shops everywhere come April....
I can't wait until I get my hands on all 27 bolts....
then the party really begins!
