New Fabric Collections for July 2010
I’m just about as excited as a girl can be! Check out these wicked great samples of my latest collections for my alter-ego design studio ~ Bella Roo. These lovelies will be making their debut at Joann Fabric Store near you in July. Hope you love them as much as I do…

This is funky & fun “Floral Petals”…
…and the whimsical, yet somehow formal “Mono Deco Floral”….
In other sewing news, my sewing machine has been in the shop for the past week and I miss it like crazy. Who knew? The button hole attachment never did work properly, and since I was quite the novice when I got the machine, I thought surely it was operator error. After many attempts at following the instructions in the book to the letter and still failing, I took it back to where it was purchased and asked if it was something I was doing. The gal there tried it as well with the same results, thereby confirming that I wasn’t crazy. (small victory, I know) However, this led to having to leave my baby there even though I was in the middle of a birthday pressie project. They said one to two weeks and week one is down. Hoping I get a call any day now telling me she’s ready to come home. I miss her dearly….

Hi BJ! Love the new line of fabric – wonderful!!! Just a coincidence that I’m just in the final stages of finishing off the applique on the quilt I made with your last line of fabric. I was the fortunate one that won the wonderful selection of fat quarters last time around and have been trying to juggle in this design among a few other things. I was out taking photos of it on the clothesline the other night and I think it looks pretty darn good – I’ll email you a photo and hope to have it posted on my blog in the next day or so. Thank you so much for creating such wonderful fabrics. – Marlene

BJ! Love the new fabrics and I also love the abstract art. I think you are brave to show us and admit you are fearful…you could have just showed us. Terrific for you to explore new art! AND it is really good!
