Let the After Christmas Sale Begin! (Updated Friday evening...)


Happy pre-New Years Greetings to all!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas holiday...I know I did! Santa brought me lots of goodies and I've spent the week here in-between Christmas and New Years just doing "for me" stuff here at home! Two of my New Years resolutions that I have started early are...eat healthier and be more productive. So....this past week, I pulled out my big blue antique basket rug that I had been really working on before mom died and I'm going to get that thing finished! I should be done with all the inside work by Saturday...so all I'll have left is the background to do. My goal is to have it hanging in the shop by the end of January! (That's #3 on my new years resolution list!)
Here's an updated picture...only one big leaf and a flower left to go and then it's all background....yea!


Now for the important information!
Our "After Christmas/Happy New Years End of the Bolt and Christmas Stuff" Sale begins Saturday and runs all weekend...

Here's the deal...

20% off all Christmas and End of the bolt fabric
WOW Members get a 25% discount!
AND...if your ticket goes over $100....get an extra 5% off!

Hours....we'll be there until at least 4:00 on Saturday and all day Sunday!

(Friday evening...)


Just a couple of last quickie notes...we got in the February issue of Early American Life magazine...some really great articles in this! $5.99 for the issue...

We also received 4 more of the newest Marcus Brothers Primo-Plaids..these are double napped flannel...and would make great backings for a quilt! (And come this next week...those flannels are going to feel pretty dang good when the temperatures around here drop!)

But for this weekend..the skies will be sunny and temps will be in the 60's both days...so come on out and see us! This will be a great time to buy backings for your quilt projects and christmas treats for next year!

I'm off to go finish my last leaf! Until later...Lisa

We got back in that great piece of black with the orange leaves from Jo Morton's Carolina group along with the blue floral from Blueberry Crumb Cake by Moda (which is flying out the door!)I know I've got a few quilters waiting for these...so I thought I better tell you now!




And...we got these in today...two of the Elizabethtown prints in green (great civil war "adds") and the red bird floral from Jo Morton's "Variety" line...

We got our THIRD shipment of "Weekend" books by Blackbird Designs...so they are back in stock...at least for right now!

Coming mid January...Primitive Quilts and Projects Magazine! The picture of the new cover is over on the right hand side bar...can't wait for that!

Be looking for information on our New Years Sale next weekend...I'll post the "scoop" on that next week!

But for now, we'd like to wish each and every one of our customers and friends a very happy holiday season! Your support of our shop means the world to me!

Here's to a happy and very creative 2012!
