Desperately Searching

UPDATE:  I'm so excited!  I e-mailed Arlene per Robin's comment below.  I had e-mailed her months ago and apparently had the wrong address because this time I heard back within the hour.  She has offered to sell retail to anyone who can't find her patterns in their area - I'm doing a happy dance!  By the way, she has a fabulous new blog at www.quiltingwithrabbits.com which I have put on my reader - she has such beautiful things there.  Give it a try - I bet you'll like it.  Thanks!


I've been looking for a shop in the U.S. that has a copy of Arlene Neely's patterns Summertime and Tea in the Garden.  She designs embroidery patterns like this one
which is on her website The Rabbit's Haven.  Summertime is a current pattern but Tea in the Garden is no longer showing so it must be discontinued.  Her website is wholesale only so I can't order from her, though I sure wish I could.  But I'd gladly order from someone else if I could find these.  I've completed her pattern Precious Memories and am ready to put it into a quilt but I want more!  Any help out there?

    I have the pattern and ordered it directly from the designer. They mailed it to me in Virginia. I emailed Arlene and she got back to me really quick.

    That is so cute.
    It looks like a bit of work, but probably not from someone as yourself.

    I look forward to seeing the finished product.

    I am going to see if Cori will order the Rabbits Haven patterns for her online shop. I've always like them and have one, but there are a lot of really cute ones I would luv to have. She is carrying a lot more patterns and books in here shop now....has even added Australia designer patterns. She has a few Aurifil embroidery 12 weight threads in stock and I luv it...sews like butter. I also like Cosmos and Presencia perle cottons and floss. I try to avoid DMC.
