amy said...

Congratulations, it's beautiful!
Yesterday I had this crazy urge to buy "designer" fabric...which I never do. I was browsing some shops & decided Central Park was what I wanted. Couldn't remember where I'd seen it...Was listening to Pat Sloan's podcast & who's her guest but Kate Spain. Doh! Went through my whole blog list and here you are with your beautiful quilt, thank you, I knew I got wonderful inspiration somewhere (though I bought some charm packs so I'm doing a different layout).

Thearica said...

Congratulations!! if we both had a glass of champagne I would toast to your future! Much continued success!
