Shiver me timbers and blow me down! We have just received the cutest fabric collection for boys, “Pirates.” The labels, allover toss, treasure map, coins, even the skulls are just too cute for words. Bring it all together with fantastic dots and water and sunshine texture prints, and you have a complete grouping for bedding, swim apparel, room decor, pillowcases, beach bags, just about anything your imagination can dream up.

Brighten your home with these fun fabrics from Cosmo Cricket. “Early Bird” combines images of toasters, coffee cups and a wonderful message to “greet the day with a song.” Colors are bright and cheery in shades of teal, brown, red, and gold and blend beautifully in a variety of novelty prints.
Sayings on the stripe include:
** If we were meant to pop out of bed, we’d all sleep in toasters!
** Hey good lookin’, what you got cookin’?
** Greet the day with a song!
We’ve also kitted up an adorable pattern from Andover. And we have the Dimples from Andover that coordinate with the collection.

jULIE, YOU’RE OUR GRAND PRIZE WINNER!
We’ve had so much fun these last 16 days. Thank you SO MUCH for playing along with us. We’ve loved the international weather reports, the quirky sayings, the personal notes you’ve written, and gettin’ to know ya’ll :)
Don’t be a stranger … you never know when another giveaway might come along. As a matter of fact, I happen to know that there will be one soon and you won’t want to miss it!
Mark your calendars now for November 15 … that’s when we’ll be posting the words for our 2nd Annual Holly Jolly Blog Bingo. Game will officially start on December 1.
Before we go, we have another winner ….
Congratulations to
Darlene of Harker Heights, TX
You’ve won the “Home in the Middle” pattern!
And last, but not least … the man in the UPS truck stopped by last night and brought us quite a few boxes. He said he kept hearing birds chirping. To which I replied, “Well you know what they say about the “Early Bird ….”
Good morning! It’s GORGEOUS here in the Central Valley of California. Just cool enough to sit outside for a bit, the birds are singing, not a cloud in the sky, and we’re only forecasted to hit 84 degrees. What more could one ask for? Ahhh, but you probably don’t really want to know about our weather, you just want the WORDS. Okay, okay … here we go!
