At last I can tell you my big secret ..........

..... Remember how busy I have been this year?  

Remember how I couldn't tell you what I was doing?

Remember how I couldn't even show you what I was making?

 

Well, ta da, drumroll, fanfare, waving fat quarters in the air, at last I can share my secret.  

 

This is what I have been working on like a thing possessed since the beginning of the year:

 

12 quilts, 12 brand-new designs, together with this:

 

 I can now tell you that my first book is making its steady way through the production process with those wonderful folks at Martingale Publications. 

 

It doesn't yet have a definite title or publication date, and I haven't seen the front cover design yet, but the manuscript has been checked and proofed by the Copy editor and the Technical people, the illustrator is nearly finished with her bit and the photographer will shortly be working his/her magic.

 

Excited?  Oh yes, you have no idea how excited I have been or how difficult it has been not to let anything slip before now. 

 

As soon Martingale tell me more then you'll be the first to know

 

(and before anyone asks, I already have more than enough designs for the second book .......)
