CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

 Hello there my lovely readers!

Finally! The day has come for me to announce the winners of my July 2010 Blog Giveaway. As I scrolled down and checked the giveaway post, I saw only 26 people participated this time around. A small number but still I'm grateful for it. Thank you so much to all who participated in this month's giveaway. I really appreciate you girls taking the time to join and support me....especially those who keep on trying their luck every month. It means a lot to me :). 

The winners will be getting each a quilled heart card of various colors, designed and handmade by me hehehe.....plus each of them will also be getting a surprise gift which they will only see what it looks like when they receive their prizes. It's a ribbon beaded bookmark from my ANILZA BEADS beaded bookmark collection. So, you'll see what it looks like when you get the prize....I will be including it together with the card  ya! :)

Here are the names of the 7 lucky winners of the blog giveaway for the month of July 2010! Yay!!!!

We match Karen Walker's new season!

I was super excited when I saw Karen Walker's facebook page advertising that their new season collection hit their stores this weekend. Not because I was rushing out to buy up - that would have to be a MAJOR once in a lifetime treat! - but because my lily pad patterns match her new range and influences so exactly!

Check out her "Next Season: Salzburg, USA" collections just coming instore for both the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Her blue dress (above) is almost identical to our Periwinkle Blue lily pad liner, which is made from Amy Butler's recent 'Bali Gate in Periwinkle' fabric from the LOVE collection.

She also features a modern take on a neutral damask fabric (right), a red damask and a red circle/stripe Indian-influenced type pattern - all similar to patterns we have in our current range.

The 2010-2011 textile 'colour palette influences' I blogged about a little while ago (check my post below) all show strongly in her collections too - both the upcoming one and the current season called 'The Village'. Navy is huge, and there's strong traditional patterns, military, and a a few hints of orange and turquoise.

It's exciting to be reassured we're on the right track!
