The shop continues to grow as I have new fabrics and patterns arriving daily. Recently, I added a great pattern for quilted placemats. The outer border does double duty as the finished edge. No additional binding required! They go together quickly and are great for holiday decorating.
Also in the shop are 3 seasonal patterns from The Wooden Bear, featuring a pumpkin, a Santa and a Snowman. These mini-quilts measure only 12 inches square, and look great displayed on a small quilt stand.
Just this week I received this luscious line of fabrics from Timeless Treasures, called “In Bloom”. I know this one will be strong seller, and I already have several kits available to make the pattern shown.
A lot of my customers have asked about classes. The following classes are currently being offered at the shop, and more are in the planning stages.
Road to Stardom This large lap-sized quilt has a lovely mitered border.
