Colors are the smiles of nature.
~Leigh Hunt, English Poet

At this time of year here in Connecticut, the
landscape has been reduced to neutral shades of
tawny browns and chilly greys. It's the perfect time
bring some bright pops of color indoors to invigorate
each day with the promising smiles of spring.

To help out, Crate and Barrel is unveling their
latest home collections both online and in stores.
Among their colorful assortments are the Chase
porcelain plates (in yellow, green and blue) that
feature my Pagoda geometric pattern.

Good Fortune, my newest fabric collection for Moda,
is now available in stores worldwide. It can also be
found online at some of our favorite retailers like
Fat Quarter Shop, Pink Chalk Fabrics and bloomerie.

Michaels Craft Stores is currently carrying a bounty
colorful stationery items featuring many of the
popular prints from my Central Park collection. Look
for them in the tower baskets and choose from note
and list pads, clip boards, chubby pens, rubber
stamps, clothsepins, notecards and much more!
