SO MANY NEW GOODIES!!!


Here is my ROW BY ROW 2019 18" square block!
 ...and here is an option if you choose not to do the embroidery. 
 It just requires a fat quarter of fabric for the outer borders.
 It is still a ways away, but Christmas IS coming! 
 My dear friend Jill made these adorable ornaments for me with wool felt!  SO CUTE!!!  The pattern for ALL of them is $9.00.
THANK YOU, JILL!
 A new quilt from Whimsicals.  It is 42" x 35".  The pattern is $10.00.  The kit which includes the pattern and ALL the fabric with backing is $59.95.  Megan Best quilted it for $50.00.

Another cute wallhanging from Whimsicals.  The pattern is $10.00.  The kit, which includes the pattern and the backing is $39.95.  Megan also quilted this one for $50.00.

And one more using Whimsicals' adorable fabrics...this pattern, "Camping in Style",  comes from This and That.  It is 54" x 70".  The pattern is $5.00 and the kit is $76.95.  I think this would be a fabulous pattern to use with small stitcheries as the focal fabrics!

 I have a lovely selection of 60" wide Minkee
 for just $8.95 a yard! 
The colors did not show well in the photos but there is
BABY BLUE
 CHOCOLATE BROWN
 LILAC
 WHITE
 PINK
 GREY
 AND MINT GREEN!
okay, I don't know what happened to that photo but is a great color!   This special lasts as long as the fabric is in stock.  

This is the Spring panel from All Through the Night's 4 Season applique pattern.  Come into the shop to see the whole quilt!  The patterns for each season are $9.00.
 This is a pre-printed stitchery panel from French General.  There are 4 different pre-printed panels and they are only $4.50 each.  How easy is that?

 Here is my personal favorite..."WELCOME HOME" from Primitive Gatherings.  The banner pattern is $10.00.  The center "O" switches out with a new wool pattern for every month!  It can be made to hang-as shown on my front door-or as a table runner.  The patterns for the monthly mats are $7.00 each.  
The fabric kit for the cotton base is $45.95.
 Here are the finished "O" centers (so far)...six more to go!  Aren't they GREAT???

That is all for today but I am finishing up several other new projects AND there is 
SO MUCH NEW FABRIC in the shop that I will have to blog again soon!

S P R I N G is HERE!!!!

Woo Hoo!!! Time to plant and weed and         enjoy the sunshine!  
These stitcheries are from Anni Downs' book     "A Gardener's Journal".
The book is $26.00.  The frame is              available for $29.95.
                              This is a fun stitchery from                  Plumcute designs.  The pattern is $10.00.


The Pattern Basket made a full size quilt pattern for these bunnies but I opted to make just one row for a table runner.  The pattern is $10.00.


GORGEOUS new fabrics from French General.  The precuts have also arrived...and are flying off the shelf - so if you want some HURRY IN!


Some Maywood Studio Basics used in Crabapple Hill's new "Summertime Kitchen" patterns.
And here are Crabapple's new 
"Summertime Celebrations" fabrics!
So cheery!
Can't wait to get started on the Block of the month from Crabapple Hill!  Each pattern is $10.00-there are 11 patterns in all.  The fabrics are here, almost all of the flosses are in stock and the colored pencils are on their way!
Started working on my Row by Row block.  I am going to do an 18" block for the "Taste the Experience" theme.
This year's Shop Hop has a Nautical theme so I have found some additional fabrics to play with that continue the theme.  Check out the website: washingtonquiltshophop.com
to get all the info.  Starts June 21st!
There is more fabric arriving DAILY!  There is a great new outdoor line with bear and deer...And a fabulous new line from Moda called Boro that is beautiful Indygos and tans...still waiting for the companion wovens to arrive.  So MUCH to see!  Hope you have a chance to take a break from all the ourdoor activities and stop in to see the new goodies in person!

new fabrics!!!

 A lovely variety of new cottons!
Looks like summer to me!
 and Primitive Gatherings' "Stars and Stripes" classic beauties.
 and a breath of fresh spring air from 'Chez Moi's" new COCO line.



 And did I mention that new wools have arrived???   Just a few!  😁

Fat quarters, 10" squares, 5" squares, 8" pieces...in every color imaginable!  Oh, the projects we will make!























 Just gets the creative juices flowing, doesn't it?  There are abundant patterns to go along with these beautiful wools if you need some more inspiration!  Next post will have a finished wool quilt once Nikki Crisp does her quilting magic!  So many fun things to keep us busy while the weather keeps us indoors.

Happy New Year! This post is long overdue...


 Sorry I did not get this picture up sooner.  This is the finished sample of the free pattern from Crabapple Hill and Folktales that I gave out during my Christmas Open House.  If you have the embroidery finished now you can see how I added the borders and binding.
 This is a new adaptation of an older Kansas Troubles quilt pattern.  I made it with Minnick and Simpson's "Farm House Reds" fabric line.  I do have a few kits ready.  
Hard to believe it is time to think about Valentine's Day!
 Makes a sweet table topper!  I have always thought about adding a few more rows to make a crib quilt.  Maybe someday...
And if you are ready for spring with this delightful weather we are having here is a new sample of Plumcute Design's "Put a Little Spring in your Step".  The pattern is $10.00 and stitches up in a jiff!
