 Proofs of fabric for preorders

It has been many years in the making. I started with an idea to get together a large order of Loteria print by Alexander Henry. This took me over 5 years to do. I collected 2500 yds on backorder for the reprint of the fabric. But alas, basically couldn't get a reprint because of a copyright issue. I was crushed.  

A light popped on in my mind.... an idea that would allow my customers to have the "Loteria" fabric but with a twist. How about a mixture of the Mexican card game and Dia de los Muertos! About a two years ago, I arranged a meeting with the owner of Alexander Henry.The owner was very interested. Early August 2012 I met with the owner again. I heard that my idea was put into action and they were going to print! Yaay!. He brought me over to a small room and I saw it. It's beautiful, my eyes teared up. My idea of Loteria with Day of the Dead on fabric. After I got to see the proofs of the fabric, I met & chatted with Nicole, one of the awesome fabric designers at AH. She is really nice and fun to talk to. There are 5 colorways available on this fabric. Natural, Black & Natural, Black, Light Pink and Tea. 

Fabric bolted and stacked, over 6ft high!

A new loteria fabric print from Alexander Henry, very exciting news!

I had so many people contact me about ordering "Loteria" fabric, that I decided to pull together an order to get a reprint done, I contacted Alexander Henry and found out that I needed to have an order of 2000 yds to place a reprint order. Unfortunately by the time that I had collected the orders, they could not reprint it. About a year ago, I arranged a meeting with the owner of Alexander Henry. I had an order of over 2500 yds for their famous "Loteria" print that has been out of print since 2008. I came up with an idea that would allow my customers to have the "Loteria" fabric but with a twist. The owner was very interested.

Yesterday I met with the owner again. I heard that my idea was put into action and they were going to print! Yaay!. He brought me over to a small room and I saw it. It's beautiful, my eyes teared up. My idea of Loteria with Day of the Dead on fabric. After I got to see the proofs of the fabric, I met & chatted with Nicole, one of the awesome fabric designers at AH. She is really nice and fun to talk to. I will be interviewing her about this fabric and posting it on my blog in September.

The fabric will be in ready to ship in September. They will be sending me the color proof cards in about 2-3 weeks. As soon as I get them, I will post the pictures and taking preorders for these awesome fabrics. There will be 4 colorways and there are coordinates that go with the fabric too!

Loteria Status report!

Hello Loteria Fans,

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have been working very hard at sending out orders and helping my mom. Also one of my good friends John died about two weeks ago, so it has been a rollercoaster. http://legacy.com/SignOnSanDiego/Obituaries.asp?Page=LifeStory&PersonID=129253649

Right now the orders that I have are totalling 600 so far. Keep spreading the word! I have been getting requests and orders, they have been trickling in. I do also have a potential person interested in a big chunk, cross your fingers!

Also, this was a cool blog that contacted me, and let me know that she talked about the Quest for the reprint of the Loteria fabric. http://maisonceleste.wordpress.com/2009/07/06/like-i-need-a-hole-in-the-head/ Check it out! I just love that pic of the doll with the loteria dress!

Talk to you soon!

Alexander Henry Fabric, Loteria print, out of print, but we can change that!!!

Hi There Alexander Henry fans, and Loteria print fans!

I am going to start to get together a massive order for the Loteria fabric design from Alexander Henry. For those who love this fabric and make stuff out of it, this will be a chance for us to tell them, "Hey! We love this fabric and we want it reprinted!!!" There are two colorways that I want to have them reprint. The Black background and the White Background(Natural).

Currently, this fabric is out of print. That means that at this time it is not avaliable, because the printed run of these lovely loteria cards has sold out. I know this fabric is a VERY popular one! I sold this fabric like CRAZY when I had it in my fabric shop.

I have to get together an order of over 1000 yards of each design(2000 total). I figured, it's about 134 bolts of 15 yards.

If you are interested in buying a bolt, or more, let me know, I will be starting up a list of interested buyers.
