So much so I have started a Flickr group for everyone to share the fabrics you have and the things you make from her prints. Please join us! All the fabrics above are bought from Lilymeru. I'm so glad to have found her shop in Etsy!
Ok now to a small giveaway as I promised...

Those fabrics by Atsuko Matsuyama are sooo pretty!! I can see why youre so crazy for them!! I work in a flower shop so I have a different favourite flower every week. This week it is the Waratah, a big red Australian native flower. If I am the lucky winner you could surprise me with either the embroidery threads or the fat quarters. :)

Hi, these are great prizes! Id like them all except the threads as I would not use them. Oops, I talked about the prize before saying about my favorite flowers! I live in a place where it does not rain during 4 months, so the weather is very dry and uncomfortable! But, near the end of this dry period the flowers of a Brazilian tree called Ipê amarelo blossom. Its such a magic view surrounded by a brown scenery... see this photo http://naterradoipe.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/dsc_0312_modificada.jpg

Found you via Flickr! I would love the fqs. My fave flower now is the pink one growing in my front yard. Not sure of the name as it was a wildflower seed mix, but it looks a little like a very large geranium flower. The foliage is not geranium though. I also love gazanias.
