Wonderful Wonderful Purple Pam!!!


Have you ever met someone that is just so sweet and wonderful and delightful and darling and purple???? Well I have, she is Purple Pam and I'm sure many of you know her. If you don't - then hop right over to her blog and visit - I'll wait until you get back.

Ok - back? Good - wasn't that fun? Now look what Purple Pam has done. One day about a week ago I got a package in the mail - I wasn't expecting anything, and when I looked at the return address I knew who it was - but could think of no reason why I'd be getting mail from Pam.

And look inside this package - a Layer Cake of Moda Snippets - all of them 30s reproduction fabrics - my all time favorites - for no reason at all - except that Pam wanted to make me smile.

I smiled so big I almost broke my face - I laughed - I giggled - I danced around the room - oh I had fun - and yes, I did smile.

Here are some of the pretty fabrics in the Layer Cake. There are 42 Ten Inch Squares. Each design is in several colors - those little clothes are just the cutest thing and have backgrounds in pink, orange, blue, etc., as do the flowers - and there are all sorts of colors of polka dots - don't you just love polka dots?!?

And because she is Purple Pam she included these half yard cuts of purple 30s fabrics - so I would think of her - you can be sure of that - I'll think of her whenever I see these fabrics in my projects. Now to think of quilts to make - so many choices - so much fabric. :-) I found a cute applique House on a Hill quilt, it would be perfect - so 30s - or maybe a basket block - or butterflies - oh the choices.

Thank you Pam - you will never know just how happy this makes me.

Loved the visit to Purple Pam; I'll have to go back again. Aren't 30s repro fabrics just the greatest? Although they were a good bit before my time, my grndmothers both wore dresss and aprons from that era. (they were very frugal)

I am printing out all those nice things you wrote about me so that whenever my hubby gets upset with me, I will wave that testimonial before his eyes and ask how could he be upset with such a Purple Pam?

Enjoyed the pictoral journey to Concrete. Thank you for sharing them.

Remember - keep smiling!
