Approval!

Wednesday, October 22, 2014

We just received final approval for the release of Octopus's Garden from Startling Music, Ltd. This pattern is the fourth of six celebrating the golden anniversary of the Beatles’ first televised performance on The Ed Sullivan Show. Although not the last to be released, Abbey Road was the last album the Beatles recorded as a group. Octopus’s Garden is one of the most charming songs included in the album. It was the second song that Ringo Starr had written with the Beatles and some critics say it was his best.


I'm going to be humming this song all day! I'm shipping this pattern out to the distributors. Look for it soon.

Barb and I are wrapping up here. We leave tomorrow for quilt market. We don't have our own booth this time, we will be in the designer's line-up in the Moda booth. Come by and see us!

Hope you are all have a chance to get out and enjoy this lovely autumn weather!

Until later!

Alma

    Very fun to get to use the song for your pattern. I tried to find your email, but couldn't so I decided to write here. I just finally finished making one of your quilt patterns, the Trick or Treat pattern! It's been a long journey but I am thrilled to have it completed and be able to enjoy my quilt. Here's the link if you'd like to have a look http://quiltyfolk.blogspot.com/2014/10/fall-2014-bloggers-quilt-festival-worry.html. I didn't actually name your pattern in this post (forgot to) but I have at various times throughout the making. It's a beautiful pattern and I always get lots of questions about it. Thanks for making your gorgeous work available to the rest of us.:) Always an inspiration!

    Saw Ringo on t.v. last year. I believe it was a show honoring the Beatles. He can dance and dance, while singing as well as ever, at age 70 at the time. I was amazed!

    Some people are born with a great voice and the natural ability to sing. Singing is no rocket science, with a little practice you can easily teach yourself how to sing. There are several resources you can use to learn singing, both free and paid.

    A few individuals say Japan is still the best place for one to search for Japanese used cars to buy. In any case, there are difficulties that face the individuals who set out to wander into that nation (even web) searching for a Japanese utilized auto available to be purchased at the right cost.
