New Fabrics!
Dovetail
Have you jumped on the low volume trend yet? Just in are new low volume background prints. Most are subtle grey prints on white but check out the sprinkles and a few other brights! Barb's favorite amount to buy of this type of print is a 1/3 yd cut of each! Order online and select Store Pick up and we'll cut and have it ready when you arrive!

Featured Panels!
Silent Lake
Part of Carol's "I'm not buying Fall or Halloween collections this year" The painterly style of Silent Lake will take you away to the lake when the leaves are changing. We have the panel and coordinating prints, including several abstract landscape prints such as rocks and sky. I could see these prints working well in collage quilts. We have two kits featuring the panel.

New Notion!
Go Big die catcher If you have the Accuquilt Go Big and are tired of your dies dropping to the floor or ending with a clang, Accuquilt has gotten your message and has introduced a die catcher. It's an extention plate to add to your machine. (Barb was the first one to snag one as her machine is set up on a microwave cart without an inch to spare!) We only have a few in stock.
Click here to get yours. If we show as sold out contact us and we will order one for you.
