New in the shop this week:

Catopia

 Kitties!

 This 3-D looking pattern with 3 options to chose from and it uses this ombre jellyroll (pictured below)

 Chantilly from Moda:

We are also receiving some precuts of this line (jellyrolls, layer cakes and charm packs) 

Can't wait to see everyone at open house!

New size!

One of our best selling bag patterns is the Mondo bag. (Dolores taught it as a class too!). The pattern designers then came out with a slightly smaller size the Midi bag and that sold really well too. Well they have done it again, meet the Bitty bag!

The one pictured above was made with a charm pack of Honky-Tonk fabric by Moda and I did the whole thing in one night! 

It has two versions, seen here is the hobo style drawstring but you can also purchase handles and make it a more traditional purse style closure.

Great for a quick gift or a gift bag! The pattern comes with enough interfacing sheets for 2 bags too!

Closed for New Year's Eve and New Year's Day

Just a reminder that we will see you in the new year and that our Open House is Saturday, January 11th 10-4!

She Who Sews

We are VERY excited about this new line! A customer brought it to our attention having seen it in a magazine and asked if we were ordering it. We hadn't seen it yet but were in love with it immediately and ordered it right away! 

Thank you for the cool suggestion Jennifer! 

Can't wait to play with it!

Note the cute "steampunk" vibe of this line!

 Beautiful coordinates with lots of details.

Remember we are closed Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week to enjoy the holiday. We hope everyone does the same!

Remember recently we showed you these new Bali Tiles from Hoffman?

Well we had a talented customer (Pam) bring in a beautiful top using the Splash colorway in a quilt:

Isn't that a beauty?

Thank you for the inspiration Pam!

New Class and new products

You know we are always trying to bring you new ideas and new products.

Susi Looney is teaching this new art quilt class at the shop. It is a mixed media technique class. 

How sweet is this little mini quilt neighborhood?

Susi's classes are always lot of fun sign up at the shop if you are interested!

*****************************************

Now for the new products: 

 These Bali Tiles come in two color ways, above and below:

 There are four unique tiles on each piece so you have beautiful coordinated variety with each package:

There are even layer cakes that coordinate with the Batik Tiles!

**************************************************

  Moda Fabrics is the king of precuts. They recently came up with these 2.5" mini charm packs but what to do with them?

 There are now two booklets available with a wide variety of patterns using the mini-charms! 

Nancy made the mini quilt above and Mandy made the fabric bowl below from some of our mini charm packs.

The booklets and a mini charm pack are a great gift idea!

Honky Tonk by Moda

 This is a new line from Moda called Honky Tonk. It has a country and western feel with a musical slant. Several bolts came in and lots of precuts seen above.

 love the plaid on the diagonal!

 Mustaches!

Liked this line because it could really be boy or girl and the Western theme but without horses which is rare. Not that we don't like horses but they just aren't every Western lovers cup of tea.
