I didn’t realize it until later, but "Random Debris" was a pretty
sad-sounding post title, huh? That wasn’t my intention. We’re doing
quite well for all of the hubbub. My dad’s heart tests went well and
he was released from the hospital on his birthday – best present
possible. Home-cooked meal at our house & chocolate cake too.
Four family birthdays this week in fact, and one little baby girl on
her way. Lots of birthdays, lots of design projects, lots of catching
up, lots of Lotsa.

I’m heading out to North Carolina in the morning for Donna’s big
shindig. Humorously, business trips seem to be my best chance to
relax. It’s those long plane rides: sketchbook, embroidery,
audiobooks, iTune movies for my Nano. I’m all set. Watched a rental from iTunes on my way to the Country Living event last month. Pretty
cool. I just wish they’d give you longer than 24 hours to complete a
movie once you start watching it.

More on that later – *Pray for May* – Gotta go.

OOoooh beautiful! I can’t wait for the new line. I don’t think I’ve ever prayed for fabric before, but there’s always a time to start!

I’m real happy your dad is better, went thru the stress of heart tests with my mom 2 years ago and even when it’s minor it’s still worisome.
That fabrics tease is SO unfair! I can wait to see it all, if it’s anything like the Freshcut it will ruine me for the rest of the year.
Have fun on your trip.
Danielle
Ooohh, so pretty! Can’t wait to see the rest of it.
Praying for you now…
Good to hear that you Dad is doing well. Happy Birthday to all! Have a great trip too.
Hi Heather,
I found your site on Flickr! And I am happy I did…..I just love your style 🙂
Thanks
Michele
Hi Heather! Great news about your dad. The new designs look deeelightful!
yummmmy!
I’m glad your dad is doing better. It would be sad to spend these beautiful days cooped up in a hospital!
I’m so excited about your fabric. Really super excited. 😀
Well I guess I know where my stimulus check will be spent!!!
excited!!!!!
Ooooh new fabric, I can’t wait!
Hey, do you know where I can buy your paper line in Canada? I’ve checked all my local scrapbook stores and so far none of them have it. I wonder if the fabric stores that sell your fabric will sell the paper as well.

Four of my children have birthdays the first week of April…not hard to do with a set of triplets. Tee, hee. My dad, my neice, and my nephew also have April birthdays. Yep, April is a good month. Now if only the sun would come out and stay out in my neck of the woods, April would be perfect!
Love the peek at whatever that is in your photo. If it’s fabric, I’m in love. If it’s something else…well, I’m still in love.
What – new fabric? Looks wonderful! Praying for May and continued good health for your dad and many more birthdays for him too.
Heather, Great news about your father. And the new line looks SO gorgeous in just that little sneak peek. You made my heart race! Thinking May!
So I read your bio on Donna’s website & found out the new line is called pop garden?? OOO so fun!!! can’t wait for the new line!! Like I said I know where my check is going in May!!!! Sounds like a fun time with inspirational women, I’m so jealous!!!
!I absolutely cannot wait for that fabric. !!!!
I am so happy that your Dad is going to be OK.Horribly stressful but you are on the ‘up’ it seems.Goodness you are a busy lady!!Well done.Fingers crossed for beautiful number four : ) On another matter,I am so excited that a friend of mines husband is off to the US for business and he has promised to grab me a copy of Home Companion.We don’t get certain things in Australia and unfortunately that is one of them.I am looking forward to it.x
I am always so overwhelmed by your beautiful blog, and all your talents. I am off to get my home companion mag now, it has always been my favoritexxx
Tag! You’re it! (see my blog :-)) Glad your dad made it home for his birthday. How many movies can you fit on your nano?
Hi Heather!
The new fabrics look fantastic! They’d look great in my sunroom. he!he! At first I thought they were wallpaper rolls. How cute would that be! Great job!
Lorri
Heather-do you know when your paper line is shipping? I’ve looked at my LSS and online and can’t find it…help!!
You are amazingly talented! Love your papers and fabrics and the possibilities to make with them…Oh, I can only imagine. They will all be beautiful.
Your article in Home Companion was so beautiful. You are an inspiration! Can’t wait to hear about your weekend!
Keep up the good work!
Anna
Lovely fabric teaser! I can’t wait to see more. ~jen~
I’m from NC – great weather right now! Have fun!
Hi Heather,
I found your site on someone’s blog and I just want to let you know your site is amazing and you’re so talented. I’m a fashion design graduate but now a stay at home mom. Are you somewhere in Arizona? I’m in Gilbert. I love how you photograph your pictures. Do you give tutorial on how to take pictures of objects? I’m a beginner photographer and I just bought a Nikon D80. If you have any time to post some tips on taking those pictures that would be awesome.
Prayers for your dad, glad to hear he is better. FABRIC??? Can’t wait, any idea when it will be making it’s debut? Love all you do!!!
Can’t wait! They look beautiful!
Ooooh, I LOVE sneaky peeks! Can’t wait to see the whole collection. :o)
Glad to hear your dad is doing well.
Praying for May! ;o)
I’m so glad to hear that your father is doing well. A happy, happy birthday to him!
I love the picture you posted, so full of glorious color and I love how you’ve tied ribbons around the paper rolls. Delightful!
I’m so glad your Dad is OK.
Looking forward to that new fabric!
So glad to hear your dad is doing better. I’m a little perturbed about the iTunes 24 hour rule too. I mean, even with Blockbuster you get 2 full days before you have to return it.
The sneak peak at the new fabric looks wonderful. I love the intense and fun colors.
Can’t wait for more!!!!
I am glad that your dad is doing better! The new line is looking beautiful as well
Hi there Heather!

I have been reading ME’s HC for years; it’s my favorite! 🙂 And the day that I receive it, I read it COVER TO COVER!
I’m so glad your dad is on the upswing.
Vanessa

I am a quilter and I love fabric. I love the Freshcut line. I will definetly be looking for the new Heather Bailey line.

Your new fabric is gorgeous! So is baby girl coming to your house or are you going to be an Auntie again? Have fun either way…babies are such a wonderful gift. I hope the Momma to be is feeling well.
My brother’s fourth child. I think they’re going to name her Chloe, but you never know until the paperwork is signed. And she’s not here just yet. Soon hopefully : )
Ooh Heather, just got a better sneak peak on FS – can’t wait the new collection looks beautiful.
LOVE your stuff, and can’t wait till your new line is up! Hope your father is ok. May your May, bring May flowers 🙂
