1. To have confidence in the truth, the existence, or the reliability of something, although without absolute proof that one is right in doing so: Only if one believes in something can one act purposefully.

Tradeshows- We did 4 trade shows this last year and had a wonderful
time showing new patterns and fabric to shops and lovely quilters all over
the west coast. Traveling to do these shows is always challenging but
Houston was amazing, check out my blog post! Thank you for stopping
by our booth!! We are so excited to tell you that we will be at Road to
California in the tent this year so I hope you get a chance to come by
and say HI! It is January 21-24.
My blog has been sadly neglected, I just feel like I don't want to just be
more noise out there, taking up your valuable time with chit chat.
I want to make sure I am offering something worth the time to read,
something worth your visit.

2. New Fabric Lines- I released 3 new lines this year!! Owl in the Family was released at Spring Market and has been a best seller! Lazy Little Ladybugs was released in the Fall and is now hitting the retail shops. Kaleidoscope is shipping in February and is a mixed media line with wonderful coordinating fabrics. It was so much fun creating exciting projects and patterns for each line. Check out my website for free downloads and fabric and patterns. Each designs is special and has a place in my heart as do all the projects I create. Thank you for purchasing my patterns and fabric! I love to hear how excited you are when you bring my designs into your sewing room.

do 3 tapings for Quilting Arts TV!! They can be seen on series 1600 along with writing 3 articles that have been showing up in the Quilting Arts Magazine!

I love teaching art in all forms and this seemed like a low stress,
fun way for new artists to explore their own creative talents in a
fun setting. They have been so much fun and Randy and I have
met some wonderful new friends in our own community!

night with your sweetie or a night out with friends. Thank you

This is a glimpse of my year , a tiny taste of what happened
in my business and I want to tell you how much I enjoyed how you touched my life during 2015. I was so busy my blog suffered so I will be working on posting more often, somehow! Remember I BELIEVE!

I had trouble reading all of the post. The sidebar covered up some of the blog post, making it invisible to me. I'm interested in all you have to say! BTW, I have chosen the word FEARLESS for my 2016 year. We don't always get to choose our path, and we often don't like it. However, I am never alone, and I do not need to fear. I saw your "believe" box on FB, and want to know more about how you did it.
Hi Linda, I will post today and fix the alignment issue! Thanks for letting me know!
