I am still deep, deep in designing the next collection so I don't have much to share. Other than the fact that I should probably take a shower and I could use some daylight. That's probably too much information, huh?
On a more appropriate note, here is a little sneak peek of what is to come Fall 2013…
I love those oranges, too! That stack is just lovely!

Oh Joanna, Joanna, Joanna! I just love your collections! Each one is better than the last one. I don’t know how you do it, but I am so glad you do!!! This one is spectacular!!!
Hi Joanna! The new collection looks YUMMY as always! I can’t wait to add it to my fabric stash. 😉
On another note, I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for the wonderful tip you shared on your day of the Moda Friendship Quilt Along regarding sewing on the diagonal and only cutting the one fabric leaving the original in place instead of trimming off the whole corner! This has made my piecing so much more accurate as I’ve started sewing my blocks (and for all new quilting projects to come!). 🙂 Thank you, thank you!!!

And just when you thought that their could never be another collection as good as Avalon, Butterscotch and Roses, Buttercup or (insert YOUR favorite collection name here ) she does it again. It is outstanding. Well done.

these colors are so wrong for my color scheme in my home but I am so drawn to them as well as the previous lines. The softeness of the color line(s) acutally brightens my soul. (Maybe it is time to change room colors and ignore what my masculine husband thinks.)

Oh, so very pretty! Seems like things may have calmed down since your last post, thank goodness! Last weekend I did purchase the last charm packs & a jelly roll of Butterscotch & Roses from my mom’s local quilt dhop ( a block and a half from her house -wow) I just couldn’t resist! Happy designing days!!

The brown and aqua were the first to catch my eye, then green and orange which usually are not my favorite colors, are really calling my name, and creamy whites with the green are making me dream of fall release….wait… We haven’t had Avalon, spring and summer yet….When we have to say goodbye to the days of summer, we will be so looking forward to Honey Sweet! Thank you again for this wonderful slice of life, it is Honey Sweet, with Fig Tree Fabrics.
Joanna – just beautiful. I have an original pattern that I’ve been working on and would love to do a mock up using your HONEY SWEET. Do you work with independent quilters?

Re: TypePad: [Fresh Figs] Helen LeBrett submitted a comment on A peek…
It is almost an identical match for SNOW.
