New Fabrics!

Neighborhood Association 

We quilters go through trends and animal trends are right there with all the other things we love. We've been through the fox, the owl, the llama, among others and now we seem to be in the season of the donkey! This small grouping includes the donkey panel, newsprint, small donkey print and a couple of tone on tone prints.

Freedom Garden

This collection arrived just as we finished the July newsletter. Freedom Garden is a lovely collection of stripes, florals, small prints and a running yardage of printed star blocks and another of printed stripes, all in our favorite Red, White and Blue. We have it in 10" precuts, 5" charm squares, Fat Quarter bundles and yardage. Need a quick project? Check out the Fast & Easy Garden kit that uses the pre-printed stripe along with the printed stars.

Gentler Times by Lori Holt

These calico prints are like a flashback in time. We've used them along with other similar style prints to create the Homestead Quilt Kit, which can be made in a day! Large pieces, no borders, easy peasy. Barb plans to hand quilt our sample with Big Stitch quilting.

NEW Mini Charms

Memory Lane  2 1/2" squares. We don't get these mini charms in very often but Carol grabs them when she can so we have Moda's Memory Lane in mini charms only. (We did not get the collection). 

Click here for the Memory Lane mini charms.

Featured Panels!  

Hide and Seek Tote bag panel. Consider this option: Quilt the panel as is. Then use it to make a duffle bag!

New Kits!

Carol has been on a roll creating 5 Yard quilts with our Bundle Boxes. Grab the book, and your choice of a Bundle Box and make any of the patterns in the book using the 5 yards in the box. (Sorry, the boxes aren't listed individually but you can call the store to see what we currently have in stock.) The quilt shown was made in the New Beginnings collection.
