Hey Everyone....
It has been over a month and I am sorry about that! I am a bad blogger!! At any rate, a lot has been going on around here in the past month. I have been working like a demon and I am happy to announce that I have officially finished the book manuscript as of yesterday....Yay! It has been a lot of work, but I have really enjoyed the process. I still have some illustrations to finish and other small things to finalize, but the bulk of the work is now done.
Just in time for another big day....my birthday! Today is the big day and when I say big, I mean it....can you believe I hit the 40 year mark today? I can't. Another thing I can't figure out is how the time went by so fast. I honestly have to say that I am so happy with my life. I have been so blessed to get to to what I love for a living. Coming up with designs and sharing them with you is my greatest passion. Thanks for all of your support in making that possible.
Now that most of the book work is finished, I will be turning my attention to fall market designs, of which I already have a few floating around in my head. I hope to have some photos to share by the end of the month if all goes well.
I have some celebrating to do, so this post is short and sweet, but I did want to share some more cryptic photos of the projects from the book. Sorry I can't be more forthcoming with them, but you will just have to wait until next summer and all will be revealed!! Don't worry, it sounds like a long time from now, but it will be here before we know it!
Happy Sewing!

Can't wait to see the book! Congrats.
I am still in shock that you are 40!!!!! Are you kidding me. I seriously thought you were like 24. You don't even look close to 30 yet. How in the world do you do it? I wish you all the happiness in the world today! Have a great day!
Happy Happy Birthday! I hope its a wonderful year ahead for you.
Nothing looks better than your amazing topstitching. Really. Amazing.
Love your work! Happy Birthday. Hope you have a Blessed day:)
Happy birthday my friend!! You seriously don't look 40!! I would have never told!! ha ha! Your so sweet I hope you have a super sweet day! Congrads on finishing the book! It has to be SO exciting!!! I can't wait to hear all about it!
Happy belated birthday Kay! And congrats on finishing your manuscript! Yeehaw!!
Can't wait to have you teach me to sew! Pam's right--your topstitching is the best in the world.
And no, I do NOT believe you're 40, just like I don't believe you ever look messy.
First visit to your blog...love it! Very nice work and hope you had a happy birthday!
Oh darn! I missed your birthday! Happy belated birthday you young looking 40 year old! 40 is when things really start to get fun so brace yourself. :)
Funny story. I was browsing through the bag patterns at my local Joann's store and found the most beautiful pattern. I bought it and put it in my stash. Yesterday I decided I needed a new bag and selected this particular pattern from my quite large collection. I perused the list of things I needed and came across Buckram. What the heck is that. I did a google search this morning and found your blog. At this point I still haven't made any connections. I wandered over to your site from your blog and noticed that the Tabitha Tote looks amazingly like my pattern. I went back to the pattern envelope and there is your name clearly printed across the front...Kay Whitt Design. I absolutely love this pattern and can't wait to get started. Now I've discovered you have a book coming out. I look forward to that too!
A new fan,
Elaine
Kay, you are the best, you've managed to teach me to sew while I follow all your sweatshirt jacket patterns. It has been a fun learning adventure....gee, I've learned to follow sewing directions and mastered all kinds of stitches plus free motion quilting. Now I need to try one of your new patterns. Please register me for the drawing. JANET MORRIS
