About
Monday, September 17th, 2007
My name is Holly Mabutas and I’m an artist and owner of a web-based rubber stamp and quilt pattern business, eat cake graphics. I also build websites, create logos and other artwork for clients, and have collaborated on some book illustrations.
In general I am an all around artsy girl, if it looks fun I’ll probably want to try it… or at least buy a book about it… maybe even some supplies in the hopes of someday trying it (hence the problem with my creative space spilling over).
I live in California with my husband, our two dogs and four cats who know how to lounge really well.

I just found your blog and store today. It was totally by chance. As I was browsing through a stamp site, I saw that someone had made the most adorable card using some of your stamps. Well, one thing led to another and I have now spent the past two hours browsing your store and blog. I love your art, your stamps and your fun spirit.
I am definitely adding you to my Google Reader because I want to see whenever you update your blog.
I also wanted to let you know that if you ever consider having a design team to make cards, etc with your stamps, I would be honored if you considered me. I see so many stamp companies sky rocket just by having a few artistic people play with their stamps and spread the word on their blogs and websites. I have NEVER sent an email like this to any stamp company and I am not on any design teams. Your stamps are just so refreshing and fun that I can’t wait to get my hands on some.
We are leaving town for a few days, but when I return, ordering from your stamp store is at the TOP of my to do list.
Sorry to go on and on. Just, wow!
Thanks for your time, Mimi

Well, you are the cutest thing… Lynn and I stopped into the quilt shop and caused a big roar when we discovered you were behind the adorable quilts! Will be anxious to see Joe and tell him we met you and he needs you to keep on coming up to teach your patterns. When we got back on the bus the “meeting you” story was relayed by others and the cross-signing of the names on our patterns was a highlight. Now if we gather everyone in our guild together who has made your patterns, we could put on a small section in our quilt show!
Thanks again for making our trip so memorable…

Hello Holly,
I just purchase one of your quilt patterns “For the Brave”, love it! Question: I’m going to use the needle turn applique on my quilt, do I need to add 1/4″ seam allowance of appique pieces?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Holly,
I’m smitten - seriously! I love your online store and the characters you’ve created. And…I’m a beginning quilter. There are so many reasons why I love your site it would take much to long to list. I’m a new fan!
Kindest regards,
Susie ~
