Cha, Cha, Cha, Changes!

 

For the past two years, every Monday we have posted a review on a
current Quilting or Sewing book or pattern.
While it has been GREAT FUN....reading and exploring all that is new
in the printed Quilting & Sewing World....
We felt it was time for a change.  So we will be mixing it up
in this New Year!

What can you expect?
Every Monday Starting in February we will post a
"Feature Project of The Month".

1st......Monday of each month......Pillow
2nd.....Monday of each month......Pin Cushion
3rd......Monday of each month......Apron
4th......Monday of each month......"Wild Card"
(Something fun that isn't a Pillow, Pin Cushion, Apron or a quilt)

We will cut kits & have them available in the shop the entire month (or until they are gone).
We will link you to free pattern downloads or patterns for purchase.
(We will also stock patterns for purchase in the shop)
We will have samples in the shop for the entire month they are featured.

We are so excited to share something new with you every Monday!

Watch the Blog & Facebook page for more fun & exciting additions!

Monday Book Club

Quiltsmart is such a wonderful product! 
The companys focus is making traditional quilts 
easy and available to any skill level of quilt maker. 
New to their products is this newest book:
Rob Pete & Friends.....

Rob Pete & Friends has instructions for 10 different quilts, all using the same fusible interfacing which has the pattern printed directly onto it. 
So instead of purchasing 10 different pattern packets, when you purchase the book the only repeat purchase you will be making is the Quiltsmart interfacing by the panel.
The book comes with enough interfacing to make a table runner.

I can't tell you how excited I am to have this book available.  Not only is it a super value, It is so exciting to see just a few of the possibilities available with this traditional melon shape.
Remember with Quiltsmart there are no curved seams to sew, making your dream of constructing this traditional quilt a reality.  Easy Peazy!!


So buy the book and try it out....or come take a class! Either way you will be amazed!
