Quilt Shop

O.K. Who says that spring and summer months makes for slow crafting? That really doesn't seem to be the case here. We have been busy filling up the area with lots of new things. We have just received a HUGE order of tea towels. Lots of new styles. checks, stripes and waffle weaves and some really cool new colors.They will be a lot of fun for all you embroiderers or those of you who have caught the embellishing tea towel fever. We are expecting lots of new lines of fabrics to start arriving soon from Thimble berries, Michael Miller, Red Rooster, Robert Kaufman, RJR, Andover and Buggy Barn just to name a few. Christmas Fabrics, yes Christmas, will start showing up in June and July. We will be heading off to a Market the first part of June to buy more, more and more fabric.It should be lots of fun to see what's being released for winter. I can't wait! Hope to see you soon!

Vinyl - It rocks!

So, I finally did my first vinyl project. And it was a lot easier than I was expecting. It makes the finished product look so polished and professional- I Love it! Yep, I'll soon be a vinyl addict. These are a few more samples that were created for the store. (Basically they are the reason I started my vinyl project.)

Check out this gorgeous painting that Sarah made. I told her I was going to steal it (and am seriously thinking about it!) She used acrylic paint for most of it- but also used some "Texture Magic" on the gold areas to created a raised/3-D effect. I just had to share it with you all.
