Letting the Cat out of the Bag
I’ve been keeping a bit of a secret over the last year and boy has it been hard to keep to myself! =) If you follow me over on Instagram or Facebook you’ve seen a little bit of this secret leaking out. I snagged these pictures from IG as I haven’t had a proper chance to take any “real” photos.
Just over a week ago, two wonderful boxes of Moda goodness arrived on my doorstep filled with fabric and a lot of excitement ensued. I have gotten wonderful boxes from Moda in the past but this one took the cake:
That is my name, alongside Moda Fabrics…eep!
Guys, Moda Fabrics introduced me to fabrics. I very vividly remember the designer and the first line of fabric that I sought out back in the day of dial up internet. I picked up what I could locally and then spent hours looking for more online–and we all know how slow going that was in the dial up days! Plus your phone was busy for long periods of time as you looked for fabric…surely I’m not alone in this memory! =p
To say I am excited to have a fabric line with Moda would be an understatement and I can’t wait to share more about it with you all very soon!
I’d love if you’d follow along with me over on facebook or IG (lmsshabby) the first letter is a lowercase L. I tend to post more on those spots than here when I am busier. Although, I’ll definitely be sharing more here when I get the go ahead!
Happy Monday!
Congratulations! Looking forward to sewing with your fabrics
Thank you Carla!–I have sure been enjoying working with them!

So totally excited for you!!! Congrats!!! Can’t wait to see you and your fabric at Market 😉
Thanks so much Melissa!–I’ll be there–already getting a bit nervous! =p
Congratulations. So very exciting. You were the first blog I ever found and followed about 5 years ago when I discovered quilting blogs. I feel like I grew my quilting wings a bit with you. Can’t wait to see more. Also, what was that first line of fabric you sought out? Can you tell us?
Oh that is wonderful to hear Charlotte!–I have loved getting to know people via the internet over the years. It really kept me sane when I was at home caring for my girls when they were younger. And that first line of fabric, boy, I am going to be dating myself…came out in 2002 I believe and it was Folk Art Christmas 3 by Robyn Pandolph. Oh how I adored that fabric line!
Congratulations! I can’t wait to see it!
Thank you!
Congratulations! Look forward to your new fabric line.
Thanks so much!
I love the colors – at least what I can see on those slivers of fabric. You better show us the rest of the bolt soon – please!
I am SO VERY PROUD OF YOU HON!! You are truly talented and what a fun ride watching you soar! Way to go hon! I can’t wait to see it and BUY SOME~!! Congrats! Hugs, Deb
Even the little snippets are lovely! Congratulations. Can’t wait to see more of your fabric line.
Congratulations. How exciting. I will be looking for LMS fabrics.
Oh that is so EXCITING!! I can’t wait to see your fabric line (and what you have made from it, judging by that last photo!). Perhaps you could do a blog post or two about how you went about designing your fabric line?
Squeal! How exciting for you- what a wonderful new adventure you seem to be on!
I would like to find the Mimosa Windham Feedsack Fabric you had on your site. Any idea where I could purchase some?
Congratulations I’m sure your fabric line is stunning. I hope I’ll be able to score some as I live the selvages in the picture above already!
That is wonderful news. How exciting for you. I look forward to seeing your fabric line.
Congratulations! I am so excited for you.
