Merry Christmas everyone! Well, Santa is in Anchorage according to the NORAD Santa tracker, so I better get check on the little one before getting myself in bed. I can’t wait to see what great presents are under the tree in the morning!

With Patty Young’s fabric collection Flora & Fauna! On Wednesday she revealed her 2010 patterns, which are set for release mid January. I first stumbled across her blog and fabric line while trying to win giveaways through Sew Mama Sew’s giveaway day. She gave away 3 pillows all based on one of her patterns for 2010. If you haven’t seen them and are interested, don’t bother googleing it. Just check out her blog.
