Good afternoon and Happy September!
Can you believe the kids are already back in school for another school year? Wow, where has this year gone to?
We want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support. We truly appreciate you, your creativity and all the fun things you brig in to show us that you have made.
A quick reminder that as of last month we are again required to wear masks. Please help us by having yours ready when you come in.
We have been trying to bring in lots of new patterns, notions and of course fabrics. We are having a couple of new classes that as far as we know No one else in the area is offering. Here’s hoping you give them a try and make something very special for you or as a gift. Remember Christmas is only 114 days away.
At last count we had over 120 108”-110” backings. Have you checked them out? There is almost all the colors of the rainbow, plus a few more too. In both regular cotton and Flannel. Did you know there is no reason that you can’t use backing fabric in your quilt front? Why not? What we carry is made by the same companies we get your 42-44” fabrics from and there is a couple of bonus’. A) you don’t have to buy as many yards since it is wider and B) For those who want their quilt front to have matching fabric on the back this is your best choice for quality and savings.
