Modern and Contemporary Fabric Sale

Sometimes we just overlook the obvious. Such as the fact that we hadn't created an official "theme" group for the more contemporary fabrics that we carry. So today we did just that, and to get things off and rolling, we decided to run a sale on them, too!

For now until the end of August, all of our modern and contemporary fabrics are on sale for $6.50 / yard (or less).

They're mostly selections by Michael Miller, P&B Textiles, Andover, and Hoffman, with a few by Robert Kaufman or other makers.

The wish list we always keep...

Did you know that we always keep a list of fabrics that our customers have been looking for, but have not been able to find? Well, we do... and on Tuesday we have a sales rep coming.

So if there's anything that you've been searching for, or that you think we should carry, by all means let us know. We'd love to hear from you!

Mr. Fixit - perfect fabrics for your favorite handyman

Looking for some fabrics to suit the guys? Dan Morris has designed an absolutely perfect group called Mr. Fixit!

This group celebrates all those really useful and creative talents such as woodworking, carpentry, painting, landscape work and grounds maintenance, plus general construction, building, and home repair trades.

Dan's designs are always realistic, and RJR has done an excellent job of translating the artwork onto fabric. This collection includes a panel fabric, a border stripe, and lots of coordinates. This particular border stripe is special in that rather than having four stripes, all the same, repeating across the width of the fabric, this selection has four completely different stripes, each with different tools/trades on it. (Wish we had a bigger picture to share, but we don't yet!) Anyway, you could start with the panel and then use the stripe to make four different borders, which would be enough for even the largest of quilts!

This group won't be available until December, but we will be taking pre-orders on it. Here's a picture to give you an idea of what's included in the collection; we'll be adding the items to our website over the next week or two.

Finally... a Chicken Wing fabric!

Just got a call from Larry today... he is the traveling sales rep for Timeless Treasures. He's coming by on Tuesday, and he's brought the good news that Timeless is coming out with some new "food fabrics"... including Chicken Wings! You'll have your choice of hot wings (Buffalo Wings) or BBQ.

I'm told that there will also be hamburgers, hotdogs, curly fries, and peanuts. Maybe even goldfish crackers. I'm getting hungry already!

If there's anything that you want us to be on the lookout for, post a comment to let us know!

South Sea Imports Fabrics on sale!

Beth - who knows all! - says that the "S" section of our store is rather crowded, and so we should run a sale on our fabrics from South Seas. Ok, Beth, we're doing it! All fabrics from South Seas, that arrived before May, are on sale for $6.50 / yard through July 14th. Panels are on sale, too. There are *lots* of fabrics included in this sale, including music, northwoods, animals, candy cane stripes, even jelly beans!

Did we mention horses, too? "Wild in Bloom" is a wonderful collection that includes many fabrics that are perfect for adding to your stash for landscape quilts.

Aaahh, summer! Days with plenty of sunlight left after work, and time to go to the beach! We're a short fifteen minute drive to the shores of Lake Erie, so we do indeed have a beach nearby.

Have you checked out our summery beach fabrics lately? We have "Life at the Beach" (pictured), plus lots of flip-flops, surfing themes, seashells, beach toys, plus sea, sky, and sand fabrics for doing landscape quilts.

Come on in, the water's fine!

Too Many Fabrics!

Ah, the marvelous month of May. That's when all the new seasonal fabrics start to arrive, and we start asking each other where we're going to put them!

So... we thought maybe if we ran a REALLY BIG sale it would help make some room. What to choose? Well, how about Moda?

Until the end of May, all in-stock Moda yardage will be on sale for $6.50 / yard. (Sorry, pre-cuts are not included). There is a LOT to choose from, so be sure to take a peek!
