Kim is the designer & owner of Retromama, an outline boutique & Etsy shop of the most fabulous PDF patterns. She designs these wonderful softies among other things and was kind enough to use some of our fabrics on her projects. First off, her latest & greatest pattern cover "Doxie Softies - Milo & Moxie" features Blend's Spring Promise line by Ana Davis. Also featured is Magic Garden on the elephant softies Tilly & Tommy, our Tinsel Christmas collection on Ruthie Bear, Molokai on the owl softies Stella & Stewart and Magic Garden (again - it is just that great) on bunny softie Betsy or is that Basil??

This past Quilt Market in May, I meet so many great designers who do such amazing things with fabric. Carrie from Such Designs is one of these fabulous designers! I was so excited to talk with her & brainstorm some ideas for a few of our collections and she was excited to get her hands on our Crabtastic collection by Maude Asbury. Check out her Wonky Little Houses Quilt Pattern using Crabtastic...
