Amy Butler fabrics were part of what inspired me to sew again, back around 2007-2008 when I joined Etsy. I accumulated a LOT of Amy Butler fabric then and made a LOT of things.
I don't want to say too much more but I do want to say that what inspired me about watching the Amy Butler lecture was that she is an artist, a true creative soul. That's what I tapped into. She follows her creative passion and it has led her to an amazing life. Not everyone with creative passion has an amazing life but I believe it's still important to follow it, wherever it may lead.
So please watch some of the videos.
I'm really excited that Amy is coming to Colorado next month for Makerie and she'll be making an appearance at Fancy Tiger so I hope to meet her.
Here are some of the projects I have sewn with Amy Butler fabrics and Patterns, starting with aprons, except for two, most are my design.

Clothing from cotton fabrics, I'm really looking forward to sewing with some of the new base cloth like rayon and voile.

| Fabric lines Belle, Lotus, Daisy Chain and Nigella |
Here are some aprons and clothing I made using Amy Butler patterns:
 |
| L to R: Apron pattern from "In Stitches", Barcelona Skirts Apron Overlay (side 1 and side w), A-Line skirt, Anna Tunic front and back and Mini Dress, Tunic and Tops pattern, last two. |
Below are some curtains and other home products I made with an enormous stash of Nigella fabric, I still love that whole line! You can see the first pair of curtains were in the bedroom, then moved to the living room because I made them WAY too full (photo 4), later to the kitchen (photo 5) and today they are in our new egress windows in the basement! I kind of have decorator and home improvement ADD.

Love the review/recap of your AB projects. Her fabrics also got me back into sewing (a visit to Fancy Tiger helped with that too!) I can't swing the Makerie this year, but I'm going to try for 2014.
