Block of the Month

NEW! Wool BOM coming soon!

New Fabrics!

Cotton Nook by Minki Kim

Just arrived! Minki Kim's newest collection, Cotton Nook is the same sweet florals in soft colors that she is becoming known for. There is a backpack panel (one panel makes two small backpacks). Shop the backpack hardware kit at the same time (they tend to sell out quickly!)

Click here for the collection.

Click here for the backpack panel.

Click here for the backpack hardware kit. (You will need two per panel.)

Click here for the Boho Kisses quilt kit.

Baked with Love by Lori Holt

These are the prints you are accustomed to - cute florals, tiny plaids, little sprigs. The colors are classic Lori Holt, designed to blend from collection to collection. We have precuts, several of the prints, a kitchen panel (see below under Featured Panels) and accessories.

Click the images below to shop the zipper pulls/charms.

Click here for the Baked with Love collection.

Click here for the One Yard Aprons Pattern.

Featured Panels!  

Baked with Love Kitchen Panels

Printed on heavier, decorator weight cotton, the Baked with Love Kitchen panels feature three apron color options with a potholder and two dishtowel color options. The dishtowels have four designs on each panel.

Try Barb's trick for finishing the aprons and dishtowels quickly: Cut out and serge all outside edges. Press under 1/4" seam allowance and stitch in place. Done. Don't have a serger? You can do the same thing with a zig zag stitch on your regular sewing machine, it's just not as fast as the serger!

Click here for the Baked with Love Panels.

Click here for Insulbright, which is needed for the potholder!

NEW! Wool yardage

If you are seeking larger pieces of wool, get it quickly before we start cutting it into an upcoming BOM and wool bundles!

Featured Precuts!

Introducing out Flannel FQ Bundles! We've taken all the different flannel prints and plaids we have gotten in recently and created our own custom curated bundles.

Click here for the warm tones or "Homestead" darker, more country colors.

Click here for turquoise, lavender, coral and other "Beachy" colors, which we realize doesn't make sense to have flannel and beach in the same sentence but the colors make sense!

New Notion!

Triple Wide Wonder Clips Just arrived! We saw these at quilt market in Chicago last spring and have been eagerly awaiting them.

Packaged in sets of 6, one package is equal to 18 original clips.

Ruler Lip

If you have been wanting a ruler with a raised edge that you can drop over the edge of the mat to hold it straight while cutting get yourself a NEW! Ruler Lip. It's removable so you can take it off your ruler when doing other types of cutting.

Veteran's Quilt Project

Thank you to everyone at the July Retreat who sewed patriotic blocks for our Veteran's quilt project. And thank you to Lori J. who turned in a quilted top and to Mary K. who graciously sewed the binding on to it! It means a lot to each local Veteran of the Month who is honored. Thanks a bunch!

Here is one of the completed tops made with the blocks many of you sewed during retreat. 

And here is the donated finished quilt!

Sew on!
