Christmas In July

June is busting out all over . . . or simply busted . . . it's gone!  Where does the time go?  We have been frantically sewing new samples for Christmas in July, and can't wait for you to see the MANY new projects we have to share.  New fabrics, new books, new patterns, NEW, NEW, NEW! 

All of it is Christmas and gift giving fun, so please join us Thursday - Saturday July 12-14 for our annual Sale-a-bration.  We'll be open until 9:00 p.m. on Thursday with a special "Schoolhouse" event at 6:00 p.m.
Guests will rotate through five different stations and see new projects, new tools, new gift ideas, new fabrics.
We work very hard to prepare for this event and hope you will join us.  Refreshments will be served Thursday evening.  Can't wait to see you!

Saturday Sampler June 2012

Hi and welcome to an online viewing of our Saturday Sampler Blocks.

Here is the "Old Glory" block.  Don't cut off the points on your block like we did on the photo.  Our block has lovely and accurate points!





The pieced block is a "cheater" method for making the Lemoyne Star.  The tradtional block is created with "Y" seams, we used half square triangles and flying geese.  Here is the neutrals color way. . .

. . . and the blue color way.







The  "Let It Snow" block is this cute little juggler.  The face and arms line up with the bottom of the block and will be caught in the seam when the quilt is completed.

We missed those who didn't make it today.  Look forward to seeing you next month!

Saturday Sampler and a fabulous trunk show!

Can you believe that almost half of 2012 is gone? Well not exactly. . . but the half year mark is gong to be here soon.  WOW!  Time flies by when you are sewing fun! 

Here is our neutral block for May. . .








and here is the blue block. . .

the "Let It Snow" block. . . we love the informal placment of flakes ( ahem!)

and last but certainly fabulous, the Old Glory block.

As soon as you get those blocks made, come into the store and check out these adorable quilts from Anka's Treasures new book, Little Quilts 4 Little Kids.
