Carolyn Suzuki’s Friends and Faces, love that collection. Katie Larson (definitely check out her Halloween collection, I WANT those pink SKULLS). A Beautiful Mess (who I hear has a podcast now). FUN FACT: as I was writing an email to arrange a meeting with them, they emailed me asking if I would be interested in doing a fabric collection with them! Crazy, right! Yes, I would! I heart their line up of designers big time!: Suzy Ultman. I polished off my portfolio and met with the good folks of PBS Fabrics this February at Quiltcon. I always loved that piece and this last fall I felt inspired and decided to expand it, adding some new prints and illustrations. You might remember waaaaaaaaaaaay back in 2017 seeing some roller skates pop up on my Instagram feed and website. My first collection with PBS Fabrics is called Let the Good Times Roll. But not to worry you won’t miss out on any of it… EVERYTHING will be announced here first. I am THRILLED to announce I have a fabric collection coming out with PaintBrush Studio Fabrics this fall! If you’ve been along with me for this wild ride you’ll know this is a HUGE dream come true!!! I can’t even begin to tell you how many things I have planned for this collection. Farnsworth (from Futurama) “GOOD NEWS EVERYONE!” I actually curate these and listen to them while I’m creating each collection! Enjoy! FORE! AND of course one of my very favourite things is to see what you make! Please tag me, I’d love to see it and repost it!Īnd lastly, as tradition has it, I have created a playlist for this collection on Spotify. In the mean time, we will be sewing up a storm of projects and samples that will be posted on Instagram ( and under Le MINI GOLF COLLABS on my website. Also local fabric stores will often happily bring in a collection if it’s requested. Unfortunately, I don’t get to see the distribution list but when stores tag me on Instagram I make sure I link to them on my website under COLLABS and under the specific collection. Lots of people ask me where they can buy my fabric. Le MINI GOLF will start shipping to stores in November and if I had to guess (and it’s 100% a guess) it will be in stores January-ish. So there you have it, the whole scoop behind this collection. If we split the difference we can call it orangie-red :D Although what I consider red some people consider orange. I used one of my favourite colour combos, red and pink. I took the layout of the Paris print but used my text instead and added a few flowers. HELLO BIRDY: It feels weird to have an odd number in a collection, so when I submitted the golf balls, I also submitted this print. Also did you know there’s an apartment at the very top! Yeah! Me either! This I did not know: The Eiffel Tower isn’t black, it’s beige! I was shocked standing in front of it, what the heck! I guess I had seen so many black and white photos of it, I just assumed. PARIS GOLF COURSE: Paris is everything everyone and every movie tells you it is! I would love to go again even if I could only go back for another 45 minutes in the Musee d'Orsay! WOOD-TEXTURE: This is the texture behind the panel repeated… because who doesn’t love a snazzy tone on tone?! HOLE IN ONE: I love pink and green together AND I love BIG stripes! I can imagine these flowers popping out of each hole like whack-a-mole! Le MINI GOLF SIGNS: This is the print that inspired the Sunshine Inn signs! SCORE CARDS: Truth be told, I don’t keep score when I play (I find it more fun that way) but I do LOVE the little pencils! POLKA DOT-GOLF BALLS: When I submitted this collection to PBS Fabrics and they accepted it, they requested this print with larger golf balls, which I loved the idea of! I only wish real mini golf had flags you had to take out of the holes! It was the first time I had ever seen an actual Monet!

MONUMENTS: When I was in Paris my mom and I did a speed run through the Musee d'Orsay. Here are few fun facts that inspired each print: This past May, I reworked it and it became the backbone of my Le Mini Golf fabric collection for Paintbrush Studio Fabrics! I used that assignment as a jumping off point and created the first version of the illustration you see in the panel of this new collection. ![]() Then, fast forward to 2020 when I was taking Stacie Boomfield’s Leverage Your Art course, we were given an assignment to do a map. I have always loved mini golf! I also fell in love with Paris when we were there in 2016. ![]()
