Cozy flannel fabric

What timing…this flannel  designed by Valori Wells arrived just in time to make cozy pajama pants to keep us warm during this freeze-and it has been freezing, can you believe this weather? It’s also perfect for a cozy quilt.

                                              

I love the print, cheery contemporary  little birds in orange, yellow and green, chirp chirp!  I couldn’t wait to make something right away, so our heating pad has a brand new cover-super easy-with a matching button closure.  We put it under our feet on the ottoman last night while we watched a movie-it kept our toes perfectly warm!

So, as you may have heard, I’ve been editing a UK-based knitting magazine called Yarn Forward, but more importantly, I have been a pattern-writing maniac lately! If you were in recently, you may have seen Exploded View, my latest pattern, blocking on our big canvas table:

If you want to order these or other patterns, you can click here or find them in our Etsy store (it’s easier if you order them straight through the first link, though). Next up: talking Meg and Heidi into doing more patterns, too!
