Most Exciting Mail Ever #2
Shortly after Amy Butler's package arrived, I got a surprise from Weeks Ringle and Bill Kerr. It arrived a couple weeks back, on the first day I got that nasty flu, so I had come home from work feeling just completely awful. When Bryan handed the package to me, it literally felt like my brain was being injected with a warm happy drug.

These are bolt ends and odd cuts from their Mendhi line -- ever since their new quilt design was featured on the cover of American Patchwork and Quilting, Weeks and Bill been selling their fabric like crazy. It's so good to hear that the quilting community at large is beginning to give them the love they deserve.

The fabric is even nicer in person. The colors are so deep and saturated and the designs are so versatile. Now what to make with them?
And lastly: A big public thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Funquilts! Hot diggety!

So jealous! I've been looking for a shop that carries all or most of the Mendhi line, but haven't found one. It's so gorgeous and totally my colors!

Lucky! And from the nicest people!

Glad you liked the package. Julie is having a hard time finding the fabric because it sold out in less than three months and Westminster, the new parent company of FreeSpirit which did the original printing for us, has discontinued it for reasons that no one has been able to explain to us. Happily there will be new lines printed in larger volumes and you'll be the first to see them when we can release the images. Thanks for the love.

Hi! I have the Mendhi fabric too and am just starting out on my Spice Market Quilt. I'll be blogging about it non-stop, I'm sure!
