Road Work Update

It looks like they are temporarily done working in front of Folktales and moving up the road.  If you come in from the Guide-Meridian or 19th Street you shouldn't have a problem.  Still noisy and dusty...  hope it is worth the effort to get here!  I am prepping applique leaves for a Primitive Gatherings quilt from Lisa's book "Autumn Gatherings".  So much fun!  The taxes are done, the orders are mostly caught up, so I am giving myself permission to play with a new project!

We have a Winner!

Congratulations to Jane from Stanwood who won the Tri-County Tablerunner.  Hope you enjoy it!

Road work...

Today they are ripping a big hole in the road just west of Folktales, so the best way to get here is to take 19th street off of Front Street and follow the bend to the right which becomes Kok Road.  There are lots of trucks out there but it isn't too bad.  The flagger will just wave you through.  They tell me they hope to have the hole refilled around noon today.  Thanks again for your perseverance!

Thank You!

A great big thank you to each and every one of you who persevered through the road construction and came to the shop during the Tri-County Quilt Tour.  It was great fun and a great success.  Now it is time to tidy up after the party and get things restocked...hopefully I will see you again soon.  And before you know it, it will be time for the June Shop Hop!  So in spite of the dust and noise going on outside,  I hope you find some tranquility and inspiration inside the doors.  Finished some bunnies today.  Now what shall I work on next???  Oh, yeah...taxes.

 Thought I would work on something for fall.  Love the colors!  This is one of Bonnie Sullivan's patterns.  The complete wool and silk kit along with the pattern is $29.95.

 This is my design for the June 2011 Shop Hop.

This is a new pattern from This and That.  The pattern is $10.00.  The pattern with the fabric including the backing is $59.95.  The pattern is called "Simple Things"

Snow Days

Here are some photos of the long awaited "Snow Days" quilt from Crabapple Hill.  Kits are ready.  The cost is $185.00 for the collection of 45 fat quarters, 3 yards stitchery fabric, 4 yards backing and binding.  The pattern is sold seperately for $25.00.  The floss is also sold seperately.  I used Black DMC for all the stitching and then added some M43 Valdani for the french knot berries.  I LOVE this quilt.  And Megan Best did an outstanding job quilting it.  Give me a call or email me if you want a kit or pattern.
