On Golden Pond

A couple of years ago, we got to do a test sew on this great quilt from Clothesline Quilts. It measures about 45" x 60". A super project to mix batiks and country style fabrics. Skill level is intermediate. The best part of this project is not having to rake the leaves!

Special Bulletin!!! Kansas Winter Fabrics Arrive

Everday new fabrics are arriving. It's like Christmas!!! Just arrived in the last few days is a great collection called Kansas Winter by Kansas Trouble Quilters. We've concentrated on the reds, greens and beiges. Over 20 bolts in all from this wonderful collection.

Our intention when we ordered this was to do kits for Cozy Quilt's pattern Holiday Cheer and fatquarter packages. But when it came in it got put right on the shelves and everyone is loving it! Hopefully next week, we'll get some fat quarters cut.

Priced at $17.49/metre

Scribbles Arriving In July!

I wasn't too sure what my Mom's reaction would be when I brought home Patrick Lose's new collection - Scribbles. I knew she would love the fabric but maybe not what I ordered. When I went to the store I showed her this lovely roll of all of the fabrics. She asked me immediately if I had ordered them. I said YES! We both think that they are great mix-in fabrics.

These great fabrics will be coming the end July. We'll have yard goods, 5" charm rolls, 5" charm squares and fat quarters available. There are 40 different fabrics in this wonderful collection.

I have to tell you I am having so much fun helping Mom with buying fabric. Mom's weakness is shoes. I think mine is fabric!
