So jealous :doh: I still need the pattern, and am hurriedly hunting down Summer too....at least I know now that my local B&N has CS Collection, so I'll be stalking their shelves for Autumn and Winter



(not that anyone should mistake my jealousy for a lack of projects on my hands, or lack of admiration for Wendy's work-to-be and lovely fabric......)
