Noah's Journey

I have begun Crabapple Hill's "Noah's Journey" and I am having SO MUCH FUN!  Here are the blocks I have finished so far...in no particular order...







   I also have the Ostriches/peacocks block, Tigers and Cranes Block and Hippos/Moose blocks traced and colored, but not yet stitched.  All of these blocks are in stock, as well as the necessary pencils and flosses.  Currently shipping to anywhere in Canada or the US, just give me a call: 360-354-0855, or shoot me an email:  folktales@netzero.net.  More information about current projects and new fabrics is available on my Facebook page: folktalesfabricshop.  Hope you all have a Blessed Easter as we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus and God's faithfulness to us, signified by the rainbow!

Spring is NEAR!


A sweet new quilt for SPRING!
The embroidered blocks are from Chickadee Hollow.  They come preprinted and precolored on fabric, so all you need to do is add the embroidery!  Each pattern is $8.00.  I used all 12 in the series to make this quilt.  I used This and That's "Camping in Style" pattern ($5.00) to frame the stitcheries.  Nikki Crisp did her usual outstanding job of quilting it for $154.00.  The $165.95 kit includes all the preprinted stitchery  patterns, the layout pattern  and all the fabric, 
           including the backing.   The DMC floss is not included.                             
   The finished quilt measures 54" x 70".

Here are a few close up shots so you can see all the pretty colors and Nikki's Quilting!

I apologize for the sunstreaks in the photo, but, hey, 
the SUN WAS SHINING!



And today these beautiful fresh precuts from 3 Sisters arrived!  Soft blush, blue, greens and grays.  SO SWEET!  The bolts should be arriving any day now...



The shop remains open 
Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm.  
It looks like we will have Shop Hop this year from June 17th to July 1st.  Sure hope the border is open and we can all move about once again with some sense of comfort.  In the meantime, enjoy the sunshine, watch the daffodils grow and stay healthy!
