I have been kind of ignoring this for quite some time now .... but seeing it has now officially been listed on the Riley Blake web site ... (together with a mug shot ... eeeeekkkk!) ... and several shops in the US are also listing it as 'Coming Soon" .... it seems that I can't pretend any longer :)
Before the last Spring Market in Salt Lake City I signed with Riley Blake Designs and the little snippet above is the result ... my first fabric line which is called ... Peak Hour.
It wont be available for sale until March 2012 ... so there is going to be a bit of a wait until you will see it on the shelves of your local Patchwork shop ...
I hope you like it....
