New Arrivals

Hi Everyone,

Some market orders are beginning to arrive.  One of the exciting things I saw at market were these gorgeous gardening tools from V&A.  I've already taken a set for myself and for gifts for the neighbors.  They are beautifully feminine and all of us deserve to garden in class!  If you don't like splurging on yourself, send your husband in to buy you a gift.

I can never resist a great blender collection, especially when they are by Alison Glass.  'Color Theory' has 24 bolts of great colors!  Click here to purchase it on the website.

More Japanese fabrics are in the shop.  The top three are canvas weight.  The bottom two are 100% cotton poplin.  Purchase them on the website by clicking here.

The buses for the Minnesota Shop Hop are filling up.  I've had a lot of people ask about locations and times.  Here's what's up:  The Bloomington, Roseville and Coon Rapids buses are picking up and dropping off at the Walmarts in these suburbs.  The Forest Lake bus picks up and drops off at Country Loft.  I'm finalizing the schedules this week.  All pick up times are approximately 7am and will be returning at approximately 6pm.  We will be emailing specifics to those of you who sign up a week or two prior to the hop.  I hope this helps.

See you soon,

New Arrivals

Hi Everyone,

First off, Jamie and I are off to Quilt Market in Kansas City first thing in the morning.  I hope to post some photos on Instagram while I'm there.  We've been looking forward to seeing new items.  I've been ordering the new fabrics like mad.  Many of the manufacturers are releasing goods this summer that are perfect for Twin Cities Quilting.  I know you will love them as I introduce you to them in these emails.  Right now we are receiving less fabric than usual.  That should change over the next month.  As you know, I buy it when I see what's right for all of us.  It's not about filling the shelves.

But speaking of filling the shelves I wanted to let you know we are almost fully stocked on Moda grunge.  We carry over 250 bolts and have been shy of that because Moda has been having problems receiving the goods from Japan.  They are almost caught up with the shipments.  This means my shelves are fully stocked.

Our website is still being fixed.  You can order over the website but make sure your email address is correct on the form.  I will need to contact you about what you've purchased.  You can always call us at 651-340-8263 whenever you want to order anything.  I do know that we all like to order in our pajamas.  So rest assured, although a bit cumbersome, we can fill those internet orders.

We have two new collections from Japanese designers for Cotton & Steel.  This is 'Neko and Tori' by Itsuko Naka.  Purchase both collections on the website by clicking here.

'Kawaii Nakama' by Naocom is the cutest, most clever children's fabric I've seen for a while:

Moda's 'Day in Paris' is the newest collection by Zen Chic.  Click here to purchase it on the website.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks to those of you who participated in the Twin Cities Shop Hop over the weekend.  We had a blast!  And it's because of all of you.  

As promised, we have Moda's new 'Merriment' collection by Gingiber to show you.  The first three pictures are the panels.  Click here to purchase it on the website.

Each animal panel is approximately 17" x 21".

The large animal sections in this panel are approximately 8½" x 11" and the small are 4½" x 5½".     

The finished size of the Advent Calendar is 22" x 36".

Here are the blenders offered for the collection:

We have a few of the accessories that go with this collection.

'Four Square' is the kit we made using this great collection.  It's 56" x 66".  Stop in or call the shop (651 340 8263) to order.

Now that the Twin Cities shop hop is over, it's time to focus on the Quilt MN hop.  Buses for the first weekend are beginning to fill.  Click here to sign up for the bus tour.

See you soon,

New Kits for the Hop

Hi Everyone,

The Twin Cities shop hop starts tomorrow!

We have five great new kits ready for you. 

‘Modern Geometry' is our free table runner pattern for those of you who are participating in the Twin Cities Schoolhouse Shop Hop.  We also have kits available to purchase.

This is 'Desert Bloom'.  It measures 17" x 59".  The colors on this table runner are stunning!

Did you say you like cat fabric!  'Retro Cat' makes a great wall hanging or table runner at 55" x 18".

'Forest Friends' is our new kid/baby quilt.  I even think modern Moms will like this palette.  It measures 40" x 52".

And 'Four Square' is 56"x 66".  The new Gingiber 'Merriment' fabric arrived late last week and I was able to whip this together over the weekend.  Simple, cute and a great size throw for any age - 56" x 66".  Stay tuned for next week's email where we'll show you the entire 'Merriment' collection.

New Arrivals:

The new '2019 Sun Prints' by Alison Glass are in!  I decide to expand our collection because I just love her colors.  And words are always popular.  Click here to purchase this collection by Andover.

These fabrics are additions to two collections that I purchased previously.  They are both from Cotton & Steel.  The first two are from 'Once Upon a Time' by Oka Emi and the last is from 'Safari' by Masaru Suzuki.  Purchase them on the website here.

New Arrivals

Hi Everyone,

Don't forget the Schoolhouse Hop!  May 2nd - May 4th.  It's going to be a lot of fun.  We have some surprises in store.

'Pollinator' by Leslie Tucker Jenison is from RJR Fabrics.  We've had great success with many of her fabrics in the past.  This collection is just as beautiful.  Click here to purchase it on the website.

We have two new collections from Art Gallery.  We've put the collections together because they are similar.  It features Art Gallery's great solid colors with just a bit of printing.  I'm going to ask them to make a ton more colors when I go to market next month.  Do you think they'll listen to me?  This is 'DecoStitch', my favorite.  Purchase both collections by clicking here.

And 'Icon Elements':

 

Quilt Minnesota is gaining momentum.  The buses are filling and people are preordering the fabric.  We will have the fabric in about a month if you want to see it before you preorder.  Fabrics release when the hop begins.
