Announcing Our Third Annual ON-LINE Studio Sale: Tuesday, October 4
Monday, September 26, 2011 at 10:13PM 
After eight blissful weeks spent mostly just staring at my baby, I'm making my way back to work. The lovely vera returns next week to help me get things rolling again, and we thought we would kick things off with our annual studio sale.
I've really loved the way this sale has worked in the past, and I hope you have to. That said, things are changing a bit this year. This time we will be listing inventory with prices, so that there won't be any confusion about what we've got and what values have been assigned to what items. I love packing up boxes of goodies for people based on what they tell me about themselves, so you will still have to do a little of that. You still get to choose how much you want to spend and give us your wish list, but this time you will know ahead of time what we have and how things are priced.
This sale is a unique and invaluable opportunity to get to know more about my customers and to reach them personally. Thanks so much to all of you who plan to participate!
The sale will begin at 1pm EST and will last as long as inventory holds out. Orders will be filled in the order in which they are received. Customers whose orders were cancelled last year when we sold out will automatically get bumped to the top of the list (we will look for you folks via your emails, which we have saved, so if you have a new address let us know!).
This year's inventory (a more detailed list will be made available during the sale) includes some classic munki munki pjs, fabric from past and OOS plus some current FFA lines from Kokka, one of a kind custom spoonflower prints (these were created for my next book, out next fall), signed posters (including never before seen artwork!), limited edition prints, wrapping paper, and some books.
See you next tuesday!

Eeeeks! I had such a great time participating last year! Looking forward to another round!
Hi Heather
Being in Hawaii, I have to always figure out what time that'll be here. According to Google, you should still be on Daylight time in Oct. We don't have that here, so it makes an hour difference to me whether it's EST or EDT. Can you clarify for us poor folk sitting out here in the middle of the Pacific. Thanks!
Oh please tell me you'll post internationally? ... please...? :)
Yay! Love the Sample Sale.
Will international shipping be available? If so, looking forward to it!
Oohhh, I'm counting my pocket money right now, so I know how much I have to spend. Fingers crossed my internet / computer + world time difference lets me join in.... This is super exciting!!!!
Can't wait! Glad you are enjoying your sweet baby and we are all happy we get even just a little piece of you back :)
Will this be US only again?
I can't remember if you said i had a priority this year or not. We had a big mix up last year :) Not complaining b/c we had a great phone conversation and you did right by me!! I haven't used those MAtryoshka dolls yet...they are too special..saving them for that perfect project. If you want to contact me privately that would be great! THANK YOU!
So exciting! It's on my calendar!
ohhh I hope too that this includes international postage, I just love the idea of you packing goodies based on what you know about the person. Did you know that you can put about 7-9 yds of fabric into a priority paid envelope for about $12. I am sure us internationals would be happy to go by a different set of requirements?? Ain't it the best love in the world having a new baby, keep staring at her a little bit longer cause it goes by in the blink of an eye.
I'm also wondering if it will be open internationally this year?
Yes! I can't wait!
Hi
Please say that you will ship Internationally, pretty please.
Dear Heather,
So happy that you're enjoying your precious little one. Looking forward to the sample sale this year and very appreciative that you taking the time to tackle it again.
I am super excited about this! I've been a little late finding your fabrics as I've only taken sewing back up as a past time in the last year or so. Keeping pinkies and toes crossed that you're planning to ship international and that I can wake up before 6am to join the fun :)
I missed this in the past hope I can be included this year. I love your art and especially your fabric! You are amazing!
Just posted this incredible sale on my calendar! Can't wait... I am a huge fan of your artwork and love sewing with all your adorble fabrics. I make baby items, and my customers love anything made with Heather Ross fabrics! Thanks for doing this sale again. :)
Hello! I just happened upon this post and I'm excited to be a part of it! I'm not sure if I'm able to get in line now or if I need to wait until Tuesday. I live in England and want to make sure I get the timing right! My daughters and I all adore your prints, it would be so much fun getting a variety package , they all sound wonderful! Looking forward to Tuesday and your response! Blessings, Sue
Eeek! I'm leaving for my honeymoon that day!! Maybe I can sneak away after our plane arrives to see if anything is still available!
Dear Heather, My entire family loves your art and fabrics so I think I'll be buying for several people, especially since I have the good fortune of being in your time zone! We bought your cranky princess prints and staged my parents house as tokens of good luck and I even considered taking up surfing again to justify buying one of your mermaid surfboards but thought that was taking our obsession a bit too far! Looking forward to the sale. Enjoy your lovely baby!
Where is this and what time does it start???
Yay! Today is my birthday! What a fantastic present (to myself) this might be! I love the idea of this sale, it's very cool.
