Greetings!
Lights! Camera! Action! Well, we aren't exactly a show, but we have lots of beautiful things to show off. And now with new lights in our store, we hope you will be able to see all the beautiful color and detail better. The installation of the lights is underway and should be completed soon. We hope you will stop by soon and see our new look.
Our Antique Rose six month Block of the Month series from Marcus Fabrics will start in early May. This lovely quilt features a larger floral pattern in softly aged reds with accents of sage green and timeless antique beige. If you would like to join, please let us know by phone or through our website.

With rich taupes and grays, deep crimson and a splash of gold, our Nights in Madrid quilt makes a bold and dynamic statement. It hangs in the center of our store and with the new lights, it looks awesome!

What's New
Patterns by Carolyn Friedlander

Pattern: The Grove

The Grove
Looking for something a little different in a quilt project? When we saw these wall hanging patterns, we thought they might inspire some of our adventurous quilters who want to explore line and contrast. The designer of the patterns, Carolyn Friedlander, gives suggestions as to fabric choice and says that these intermediate paper/foundation pieced patterns come with a cheat sheet and plenty of diagrams. She says "Olive Wall" let's you tackle those tricky stripes which she tones down with some peaceful solids.

Wonder Clips
A great alternative to pinning! Designed with a flat base for easy feeding to the pressure foot, the Wonder Clips open wide to hold layers of fabric . The clips can be used in many craft projected but prove especially useful in working with quilt, handbags and heavy weight fabrics. Clips measure approximately 1" x 3/8" and include seam allowance marks on the reverse side. One package includes 10 clips. (Wonder Clips were one of the most request items at our Puyallup Expo booth last month.).
Our Price: $15.95 when you buy three pkgs
List Price: $6.95 ea

Quilting is so much more than just sewing. It's an exploration of design, color, geometry, and movement using fabric and thread and fueled by your creativity. It's also a social connection with other quilters. We thank you for letting us be a part of your quilting world as your teachers, friends and your quilting store.
Sincerely,
Geri and Staff
