Our First Everyday Bag Class.
It was a Hit!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, yes it’s true we have caught ourselves

Humming Christmas songs at the store – and how could you not when you look at

Those wonderful fabrics.    Our elves are starting to get ready for The Reindeer Dash

Which is coming in September / October … Fa La La La La…..La La La La

We are happy to announce that we are offering Aurifil mini spools to

Compliment our Superior Threads at the store.  This Italian thread is excellent

For top stitching and decorative thread work as well as piecing.   It’s like a

Brand new box of crayons – yum!

Harvest time is here – pumpkins, gourds all the wonderful fall colors I can’t believe

I’m saying this but  the holidays are truly  just around the corner.  This collection

Has a wonderful 60” wide piece perfect for a Thanksgiving table cloth!

The Hankie Club is here! Beautiful blues, lavender, pinks and soft green – we also
found a great pattern that is easy and quick that helps to showcase the vintage
inspired hankie designs.

Scrap-o-Licious July Program.

We’ve made our sample a bit more scrappy  by using an assortment

of light and darks … and we love it!

We have smaller samples in a different color way made up by Jan at the store

if you would like get another idea before Saturday, July 17^th…

We never know where we will get the next great quilting tip will come  and

here are just a couple good ones I know of.

If you are having trouble finding the value of a fabric or how one will play next to the

other – take the fabrics to a copy machine and copy them – you will be able to see the

value in the black and white copy perhaps easier than in color – try it !

Second tip …did you know that there is a single stitch needle plate available for most

sewing machines that will stop that annoying action of your machine swallowing your

fabric while trying to sewing those half square triangles?  It’s great…but you do have

to remember to change the plate back before doing any zig zag or decorative stitching.

Happy stitching..
