Four and twenty blackbirds....

I have a confession to make. I didn't really "get" this line of fabric until Marilyn came in with this VERY fun jacket she had made from our fabrics. She had bought the fabrics a week or so ago, and then she called the other day and asked if we had any of that "no calorie pie" fabric left. Well, of course we did!

Then she came by on Friday and showed us this great jacket she made to wear - made from those fabrics - "four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie"! The light finally came on and somebody was at home! I guess I was so fascinated with the blackbirds wearing high heels, that I never flashed on the nursery rhyme about the four and twenty blackbirds. Thanks, Marilyn!

We really thought you would like to see the pictures (with her permission, of course). Don't you just love the black and white polka dot lining?

Hope your Saturday was lots of fun. We didn't get any snow here, but quite a few of you from the north and east said that you got some! As most of you know from your postcard, my Anniversary Sale is coming up on Thursday the 24th-Saturday the 26th - Tracey and I are even going to be here until 8 pm on the 24th! Remember last year? 4" of snow in the parking lot...wind gusts at 4o mph and a wind chill around 10 degrees. I am hoping that this year won't be a repeat of that. Anniversary Sale? This is the big one - 25% off all fabrics and 20% off everything else! Hope you can make it.

Have a wonderful rest of your weekend! Next up....Martha's great "No Sweat Sweatshirt Class"! You're going to like this.
