We sure enjoy seeing everyone and can't wait for show-n-tell next month.

Monday, Monday

I am so excited to tell you all that we will be starting our "Floursack" block of the month, "A Tisket, A Tasket" in August. This is a twelve month program featuring fabric of the 30's era. It is a beautiful quilt made up. Here is a sneak peak...

More Market and local designer photos

Here are some of the local designers and friends we saw at the International Quilt Market this month...what fun! Jill Finley of Jillily, Barbara Jones of Quilt Soup, Kari Ramsay of Fresh Cut Quilts, Chitter Chatter Designs by Cori Blunt, Meags & Me and Jillily Studio sherbert parlour!!!

We sure enjoyed everyone!

BLOCK OF THE MONTH

This is a free block class featuring batiks or Christmas fabrics. Learn dimensional piecing or do it the traditional way. Purchase your first block for $6, then come to your next class with your block completed and you will receive your next block FREE ! ! !

Starts this Saturday and then again next Thursday, May 21st & 26th. "My Sister's Star" is the name since each block is a different star pattern and is being designed by Cherri White. A few spots are still available if you hurry into the store and reserve your space. Just think, a whole quilt top for only $6.00.

Strip Tubing Quilt Kits

Check this out...We have a "Strip Tubing" series available. Kits are cut, ready to sit down and sew together. With the first series you get the book and ruler so you have everything to make each consecutive quilt kit in the series. Here are photos of the two available right now...stop by the store and get yours.

Here's the book and ruler! Fun and EASY to make!
