Vintage Fabric

Last year, I purchased two vintage quilts for my children. Pure eye candy. I loved the fabric so much and they did too. It's fun to look at all these colors, patterns. These below are my favorites, I photographed each piece, to show you. As you can see, small flowered patterns make me swell! Haha! Some people would say that these are for girls only, but do I mind at all? I am sure my little ones don't either! Obviously the quilts have much more fabric on it. These below from Daniel's quilt. At the moment I have a crush on "Little Darlings VI" and "Fresh Picked" by Darlene Zimmerman, "Look and Learn" by American Jane, I also like "Sweet Scape" by Verna Mosquera, Ooooh my Gosh...look at this..."Rambling Rose" by Dena Designs, "Katie Jump Rope", "Barefoot Roses" by Tania Whelan, "Cherry Baby" by Lake House Fabrics and "Pastel Antique Flower Collection" by Lecien. Hello husband, are you there, reading this? Probably not. I want fat quarters for valentine's day!!!!

Some positivie thinking for today? Slow sales, no motivation, cold days, tight time...here is. For some, might be just blabs, but I tell you...it's hard to be motivated, but I've been thinking positively lately and it a good exercise for our mind.

I've been cleaning up some stuff over my shops, removing photographs, reediting them, keeping bags for me, remaking banner, uploading photos to Flickr, organizing my playground! Hehe. I am late with e-mails and do not get mad if I don't visit your blog. I just do things here in a rush, because I have little kids that need me so much and also I hate dirty house and late laundry. Sooooo, thanks a lot for links, comments and kindly messages. I love all. Feel kissed!

Dear Zee, I found your site through a link at Live from Tormville, and love it. I'm VERY new to blogging, don't like the limitations at blogspot and would be interested to know how you went about getting your own .com and also about the GREAT feature "radio.blog" (I clicked on it but got to an uninformative page from France). I'm sure you're busy for my questions, but if you have a chance some day, I'd look forward to your insight. I'm very impressed with the design/layout of your site.
