A quick reminder.... tomorrow is the last day to enter the drawing for all my applique supplies and a few patterns.
If you didn't know, I set this drawing up on
Stash Manicure on Tuesday, but I am taking entries until Friday evening. I am aware that Blogger was having some issues not letting people comment, so I will take all comments--either here or on the post at Stash to enter you in the drawing. I am choosing two winners, and this prize package is worth over $65! So be sure to enter!!!
Today I got some new strike-offs on my new line,
SORBET GARDEN. I told you all about my booth being based on my sorbet shop, but I don't think I ever did show you the fabrics up close. When I was designing this line, I was thinking
citrus. You know my "Citrus Salad" pattern? Well I constantly get requests for kits, so now I will be able to kit that quilt.
The lighting was not great, but here are a few pics:
Here's the GREENS. They turned out so beautiful! I love the variety in value and texture.
ORANGES are the perfect compliment to the greens, and they add such a spark to the line.
The WHITES: I used gray this time to make the tonal pieces. I just love them! White with gray is so crisp and it is perfect with this group.
The PINKS are a little bit of sweetness added to the group. Can't you just see them in a soft cuddly baby quilt? Pink grapefruit, anyone?
YELLOWS didn't photograph very well, but they are yummy! Lemony and crisp, these are the perfect shade of yellow!
Of course, I had to include REDS! These are great because there is that soft red that is so usable and a brighter clear red for punch. By the way, don't you just love the graphic herringbone against the swirly bird print?
I must admit, my favorite part of the line is ....
the selvage! This is my 4th fabric line with
Henry Glass, and I still can't believe it! I am so fortunate to be able to do what I love--and share it with you.
Be sure to ask your local quilt shop to
order SORBET GARDEN! I will have fabric at the end of the summer, so you will have to wait a bit, but it will be worth it!

YUMMY Sorbet! Wish I could have been at Market to meet you! I did have trouble commenting on SM. Thansk for giving another option.
I like the look of your Poke-A-Dots as I hate using thimbles (haven't found one that's comfortable).The new sorbet range looks very refreshing.
I'm loving the Sorbet Garden as much as I love eating Sorbet!
