Carpe Diem! So our Memorial Day Sale begins today and tomorrow, (Friday & Saturday)  All Red, White, and Blue regular priced fabric is 20% off!  I assume that the ‘quilter’s code’ applies which is… IF the fabric has even a touch, pinch, or teeny speck of red, white, or blue print in the fabric it is deemed ON SALE. Love it!
Totally Tubular Stacked Coins class is coming up on Wednesday, June 29th.
‘Let’s Play’ on our Shop Hop starting on June 12th – 15th.  There will be free patterns, prizes, and fun.  You must meet Rich Uncle Pennybags.

A Red carpet…really?  (Talk about high maintenance people)….as always we have a fun week planned for you.

(photo) Can’t wait to get the yardage into our store! Storypatches, Studio Mio purse frames, and Bloc Loc Rulers are NEW quilting notions we are anxious to share with you. We have YOU in mind as we search for new techniques and ideas in quilting.  Come in to see all the wonderful things we have discovered at Quilt Market!
One unfortunate discovery on this trip was found in our hotel room.  I volunteered to sleep on the sofa/hide-a-bed… It should have been called, “The Crater”.  It has a few missing bed springs. I shoved couch cushions underneath to prevent a complete cave in. (Really…I have photo’s).  Marsha & Maudie got a good laugh and are now snuggled in their comfy beds in the other room.  Am I miffed?  Oh no, I have Advil & new Moda bundles of ‘Bluebird Park’ and ‘Simply Style’ by V & Co. to dream with.  I love fabric.  Life is good.
Don’t forget our Marvelous Monday!  We have 20% off all Books & Patterns.   

Come and visit us soon!
