New for the kids

It's been a while since we have had a new line in the shop from Riley Blake but, "So Happy Together" 
was just too darn cute to pass up!
 Little houses....
 Mod flowers and Hexies!
 Circles and stripes! 
Then we whipped up samples of this bib pattern:
We chose the "Oink a Doodle Moo" charm pack- 
this pattern makes three different bibs out of 1 charm pack and 3 fat Quarters! See:
As the kids say, "Totes adorbs!"

Spring has Sprung!

First, thank you to Deb, Jody and Kelly for being the first ones to turn in tote bags for the tote bag swap! You all have one month to turn yours in to participate!
( See the March 4th blog post for more details.)
 Apparently the batiks have finally made it to our distributors and are starting to trickle in to the shop - batiks production is dependent on the monsoon season in Southeast Asia and the weather wasn't very cooperative so they were delayed- we think they were worth the wait though!
 Bright blues!


Also we seem to get a lot of requests for Bee fabric- lots of sewing bee participants like to make gifts for each other or for retreats so we are always on the hunt for cute bee fabric this one is new:
 
Edyta Sitar has a new line out called Paintbox we have the prints and batiks in some precuts!
 Thanks to Nancy and Dolores for making our two newest 
Patch Abilities samples- 
Kits are available for each of these:

Something different

We know that we are sort of known for having *bright* colors at Quilters Crossing but we have a softer side too.... 
 These lovely Gossamer Wings prints  were soft and pretty from the feathers to the roses...

 And it even has a hummingbird panel!

KId stuff

Undersea Adventures from Northcott featuring coordinates from Stonehenge!

bubbles!
fish!

 Some cute owls and zig-zags!

Thanks to Angie, we have a sample of our dinosaur kits from the Dino Roars fabric line!
2 kits are left!
 She even had some to make a pillow case for it too!
 And Nancy was inspired and created her own little quilt out of this fabric line:
Everyone loves the plaid from this line! So cute!
