i love them... i try to dabble in them daily, i really can't help myself about it either! hahaha... here's some of my recent ones! ;)
I have been engrossed with documentaries lately... ( clearly watching too many! ) That when i was designing new pillows the other day for my living room, i could only think of ticks = Lyme disease ( thanks, Under Your Skin ). Which is not even remotely funny, but that I let it control my design, wull that kinda is... hence my newest addition to my collection of funky throw pillows! LOL
my friend Mr. Thomas took this classic picture of me and Miss Aneela at market goofing off! She was "drawing me" with the massive British Pen that Miss Katy brought me! We are clown apples for sheba!
i also decided at Market that my favorite new fabric lines were based on the most important question... "does it match my nail polish???" now, i know what you're thinking, "Heather... YOU are so cutting edge!" i kid, i kid!! LOL... but, these are my favorites!! ;)
it's sound logic, right! i mean... how terrific are these new lines! h.e.a.v.e.n.!!
now for the winner of the big May Day Give-A-Way!.... ( ps... thanks to everyone who stopped by and entered!!

and just for kick... my favorite answer... from Miss Duff ~
I have almost no idea, but I thought I put in a joke or two...
1. I recognize you and the yammies, that’s it. The blondes to the far left look vaguely familiar. The same way that most people do after I’ve had one too many margaritas.
2. A ha! Amy Ellis and Erin of 2 more seconds
3. This is a photo of 2 extras from Pirates of the Caribbean (not so cleverly) disguised as mustachioed men asking for directions to the men’s restroom, so oft-underused at said quilty-type gatherings.
4. Aneela Hoey (taking the quilting scene by storm!), Heather (glam bam thank you ma’am), and a lady with a genuine I-love-life smile and froggy t-shirt.
5. Julie of Jaybird quilts with her new pal Candi of Raccoon Creek Quilts
6. Aneela Hoey in the process of a walk-by eyebrow plucking attack on a random pedestrian named Thomas.
7. John, Quilt Dad to his peeps, dreaming of rolling in a field of Kona solids like Dorothy did in the poppies.
8. I know when you release this woman’s name I will know it, Erin of R.C.C., and Aneela Hoey of Comfortstitching: 3 peas in a pod!
9. You and Thomas, and damn! His eyebrows look great!
10. An obvious dream sequence, complete with blurred edges. Pirate #1 is back on the scene and just said “Don’t let this blonde fool ya. She’d do anything for chocolate. Arrgh!”
11. The breakfast club. Obviously.
12. No clue, but it’s a really nice picture.
13. Your friend with the fasnarfin tattoo, Kathy of Pink Chalk, clueless, I’ve seen this face—she’s a blogger, and finally, uh, my cousin Caroline?
14. Nope, nope again, Charlie and Lindsay of Hawthorne Threads.
15. You & a blogging peep.
16. I think the lady in the middle is a designer. The other two are her loaded bodyguards.
17. This is one of those crazy times when you drop the camera, catch it and it takes a photo of absolutely no one you know.
18. The froggy t-shirt lady, Gladys. No cavities Gladys! You’re a good little brusher!
19. Hot damn! It’s Tom Selleck in drag!
20. Oh snap! These two are both bloggers and I’m gonna kick myself for not knowing their names!
21. Cute! Oh, and there’s Molly Ringwald in the back wondering why no one called her when the Breakfast Club was corralled for a photo shoot ten slides ago.
22. Derelict gang members. Parents, watch your kids.
laminates. lOVE them! lOVE. period! this fabric is an Oregonian's dream... we have a little something we like to call, "rain" here... have you heard of it??? yeah, well we usually get it, oOOOoohhh... say, nine months out of the year! yuck, right???... but this Market i was introduced to laminates by Jennifer Pagenelli of Sis Bloom and my life changed! Not only does a TRUE Oregonian except the rain, they learn to like it... or they move (we don't like adult crybabies). true. But, this little invention (which i realize may only be new to me! hahaha...) is going to make my attitude about said topic, so much easier to live with!
couple things i didn't know... so, maybe you all didn't either??? laminates are not oilcloth. it's thinner, soft, and easy to sew with! i whipped up a slouchy { River } bag today for a darling friend of mine's birthday next week... and i think it took me all of about an hour! and knowing this nutty friend, who digs hiking and going to our beautiful rivers with her 5 kids all summer... this is the perfect bag for her! it won't get DIRTY! seriously!... this is slick stuff!! ( ha! get it... slick???... )
To save myself a butt-load of time, i'm just going to play a little game with you all! called... { Can you guess the people in the pictures??? } Please send me an email not a comment to alamodefabric@gmail.com with your guesses and i will draw a winner from them! what will you win for said effort.... OOOhhh... how about a nice package full of Echino's new line i just picked up from market and it's not yet released!
