I know, I know, I’ve been absent from these parts for most of the last month. Beyond taking a much
needed holiday break, I’ve been wrapping up some big projects and
structuring my world to take on the new year. If I get some of these
things done quickly this week, I just might get to tap into the
new-year enthusiasm in the air before it dissipates. That’s the plan.
That’s the hope. I love a new year! And I’m happy to bury 2007.
Things will pick up here as well. I have some great new crafts and
free patterns in the works for January. And some fun finds to share.
Looking forward to it. Thanks for hanging around : )
Happy New Year!
Its so great that you got some rest…but I must say you were missed! Can’t wait to try the new patterns!
Can’t wait to see what you have in store. Just took my first quilting class this past weekend and used your fabric (groovy floral in opal)!! I’m giving it to a friend for her new baby and to spread the Heather Bailey love. 🙂
Hey heather!
I miss your posts!
melissa@yummygoods (your newest label-mate!)

Thanks for all of your inspiration this past year.

Berrie? What a fun name!
Hey! I’m new to the world of crafty blogs, and I am loving every page I see! You have by far one of the top blogs i’ve seen, and I hope to start my own soon!
Glad you are back, my daughters loved their trash ties. If you link to the following you will find Nancy’s new blog with a photo of her Christmas loot with trash ties included!

Almost sighed with relief for you… been imagining you all *tied-up* with your thriving cottage industry. Happy New Year!
Heather–it’s nice to hear that things are going well for you. I’m sure the new patterns & other goodies will be worth the wait–

Heather, So glad that you got to take a break & enjoy your little people – you really needed it after all of 2007’s hard work. But you were VERY missed. Good to have you back! Can’t wait for more fun, beauty & inspiration in 2008! Happy New Year! ~D
Heather, SOOOO GLAD you took a break even if it was just from blogging! You deserve a break, girl! You are amazing for all the output you’ve done over the past year. Unbelievable. I get worried when people post daily….it’s fun for the viewers, but hey, what about their family time?! Wishing you the best in 2008!!!!!
Heather, I don’t usually comment, but I just have to tell you how much I love your blog. I come here when I’m needing a shot of color and beauty. I still look at pictures of your studio and dream. 🙂 I’m really looking forward to your new additions. I’m not really crafty, but am determined to learn to sew this year (I learned years ago, but I’m very rusty). My goal is to make something beautiful with your fabric! And I’d like to get some Trash Ties. They look so cool! Are you distributing them to stores anywhere yet?
Anyway, thanks for investing time in your blog. 🙂
Great to have you back Heather.

There you are!! We all need to regroup and get ready for the new year…I am still getting ready! Onward…looking forward to seeing what you have in store for the world! Happy New Year!
Happy new year, Heather! Looking forward to seeing your patterns and finds.
Hi Heather- I “found” your blog after buying my 11 year old daughter a sewing machine for Christmas. Love your fabrics and projects. I just found your topiary pattern and I have to ask where you got those gorgeous velvet ribbons? Yum!!! Thanks for the wonderful inspiration.
So glad to have you back. We miss you in blog-land!

I love that paper topiary pattern – how perfect for centerpieces for baby showers and bridal showers!
Can’t wait to read your posts in 2008. You are such an inspiration.
Hi Heather, thanks so much for the Trash Ties. They’re FANTASTIC!!! My daughter and I have already come up with some funky new hairdo’s. I was on your Trash Ties blog the other day and saw your new ‘do’ that you did on Charlotte. I tried the same on Chloe and it came out great. I have a photo on my blog if you get a spare 30 seconds to check it out. Thanks so much for the product and the ideas to go with it!!!
Guess who just got some trash ties as a late christmas gift…..ME! how lucky am i!? thanks for such awesome posts and wicked rad ties!
I hope you’ve had a great rest Heather. I can’t wait to see your new projects.
