Thanks for Reading our Newsletter! We have a great variety for you today, both in color and theme, starting with this fun quilt by So Gingerly. The #PositiveStartQuilt is from Wendy Chow's new book "The Quilted Handbook". We love how that eye-popping palette of Kona in Blueprint, Curry, and Dusty Peach is pulled together by that playful terrazzo print by Hey Miss Designs. And, can we get an extra shout out for that amazing quilting?! Love the curves juxtaposed with those plus signs. Stay positive and roll with the curves :) Flower Power by Erin Anne Never underestimate Flower Power. Happy flowers and light and airy colors can lift anyone's mood and turn that frown upside down. The newest collection from Erin Anne radiates positive energy and joy. Printed right here in our shop and currently available on a variety of fabrics for patchwork, apparel, and home decor! Lush & Lively by Jacqueline Maldonado A celebration of life that combines a mix of lush florals with sophisticated abstracts, this collection was created in a playful, painterly energy that is the signature of Jacqueline’s watercolor style. In Lush & Lively, she explores a range of movement with color. Natural forms with painterly golds, oranges, reds and highlights of bright yellow evokes sunshine and light. The deep teals and blues with fresh aqua capture the essence of cool shadows, breezes and refreshing water. These prints are expressions of vibrant, energetic, growing, and flourishing life.

Every state in the USA has its own state flower which, when you combine them all together, create the most beautiful bouquet!"

Climb aboard and Hoist the Sails with Citrus and Mint's newest collection for Riley Blake. Local pirate lore inspired Rachel, and she hopes "the collection encourages kids to be adventurous, and to learn history. I did lots of research for the collection–pulling out old college textbooks, reading online scholar research, and visiting the local pirate museum to check my facts. Hidden among the designs you will find historical truths from the time period, such as famous pirates including famous female pirates!), flags of countries that ruled the Caribbean, real pirate ships, and of course pirate treasure."
