There are strike-offs everywhere at the studio today, looking better
than ever. They tend to show up with only a moment's notice and require a
fast turn around. Reviewing fabric samples takes daylight though—and
therefore a reshuffling of the day's top projects. If it can be done in
the dark, it gets bumped.
Over my years designing fabric, I've learned that the sooner I hand in
my color notes, the sooner I get finished fabric in hand. When
strike-offs arrive, our little ant hill stirs into a frenzy to get the
job done and set the world straight again.
All stirred up and settled back down again. Daylight has faded, but
the job is done. Even better, we don't have to wait till this collection
is ready for production before… there… will… be… fabric.
In fact, we don't have to wait long at all. There is a tower of boxes a
few feet behind me—just delivered today—that house a brand-new fabric
collection. The only thing holding me back from tearing into the
shipment is getting today's giveaway posted while it's still the 28th!
So,
let's hop to it. You enter the giveaway, I'll open the boxes. And as
soon as daylight rolls back in, we'll take some pictures, sew up a few
little ditties and set the pretties before you within the week.
With a new fabric collection close at hand, I figure a $50 gift certificate to the HeatherBaileyStore.com would make someone's day.
