Congrats to Michelle Brooks who left this nice comment:
I love this whole collection, and cannot wait to buy everything! My favorite is the sheet of paper called "shorthand", and of course the journal cards. October Afternoon, you just keep wowing me.
Michelle, email us your information within 30 days and we will get your
9 to 5 Collection Kit prize out to you.
Happy Wednesday!
October Afternoon
We are very happy to announce that October Afternoon's 'Fly a Kite' line has been released in fabric! This line of fabric is manufactured and distributed by our wonderful partners at Riley Blake Designs.
If you liked the paper, you're going to love the fabric! We are so excited to launch this collection. We love seeing our designs made into quilts, clothing, bags and so many other creative sewing projects.
Here is a fun summer shirt that DT member Vivian made for her beautiful daughter.
You can purchase the "Fly a Kite" fabric patterns at Fat Quarter Shop, other online stores, or in a local quilting store near you.
If you would like to be the WINNER of this 'Fly A Kite' October Afternoon fat quarter stack, please leave a comment telling us about the fun projects that you will make if you win the stack!

October Afternoon
(blog posts from the DT are below this one)
Walking the downtown sidewalks that are freshly covered with a light powder of snow. Shopping bags in one hand and your child's hand in the other. On the corner you hear a choir singing Silver Bells. Along with others, you stop to look at the department store holiday window displays. Lines out the store doors of families waiting to see Santa. You can feel it in the air. It is Christmas time in the City. It is times like this that you wax nostalgic of being a kid yourself during the holidays. That is Holiday Style, the latest holiday collection from October Afternoon.
