Hello Everyone,

In my studio this weekend, I was also inspired by color too!  Here are some of the photos I took to share with you.

Just into the shop... lots of brand new African fabrics.  Some are already loaded into the online shop and I am working on getting the rest in as you are reading this.  You can find them here.

New Kaffe Fassett ribbons... just delicious... they can be found here.  Speaking of Kaffe...

I worked on my friend Justine's Kaffe quilt that she began working on eons ago and then had given to me eons ago... finally we both have it done!!

Don't you just love this quilt?  I was so glad it was done for her, that as soon as I had it off the machine, I got in the car and hand delivered it to her and she loved it.  Now she has to bind it... soon.  It is a biggie too  118" X 128".  Certainly will keep her warm!!

Until Next Time...

Hello Everyone,

Since all month I am celebrating my 3 year Anniversary as an online shop, I wanted to shared with you some new items just added to the shop and our special weekend #3 sale.

This is the Amazon Star.  This design is a Judy Niemeyer design and is available in our shop as an individual pattern, but it is now available as a kit too!! And it is in the same colors as pictured above.

Here is that same quilt hanging in the Timeless Treasures booth at quilt market.  My friend and fellow Certified Instructor, Ginny pieced and quilted this one to hang in the booth.  

I actually am going to make this one for myself.  The colors will go well in our bedroom.

If you want your own though, you can pick up the pattern or kit by clicking here and here.

New patterns into the shop from Pam Dindorff of Aardvark Quilts.  These patterns are wonderful and work well with your Kaffe Fassett and Australian Aboriginal fabrics.

You can find these patterns here.

And, as promised, NEW Kaffe Fassett ribbons.  I can truly say, I am in LOVE!!  I am actually going to edge the cuffs of my lightweight wool coat with this ribbon.  How fun to put on a quilt, pillow, or bag.  And they are even more gorgeous in person.

These can be found by clicking here.

Now for the sale items this week...

Hello Everyone,

Many of you who know me, know that I love SILK!!  So what I am about to show you is something that I just could not pass up...

Let me introduce to you Radiance.  This fabric is a silk and cotton blend made just for quilters! The color palette above is Harvest.  Of course, when I was at Quilt Market... Miss Amy twisted my arm ever so slightly to purchase it for my shop so that all of you can give it a try too!  You can find it by clicking here, in other color ways too!  They are 1/2 yard bundles.

But that is not all...

I also purchased Kaffe Fassett ribbons for all of us to try too!  Aren't they gorgeous?  You can find them by clicking here.

But look at this...

Ribbon #1... Fabulous!

Ribbon #2... looks great with the fabrics too.

As does ribbon #3!

And ribbon #4!

Are you in the Christmas spirit?  Add a little green.

Then I saw this table runner done in the silks with ribbon...  Hmm... a project in the making, I think.  This pattern I don't have in the shop yet.  Hopefully soon.  But if you can't wait....

Just click here.

Tell me your thoughts on this fabric and ribbon.  I think it is elegant looking and so soft and silky to the touch.  I wish you could just feel it through the computer.  All I can say is YUM, I feel a new project coming on! 

What would you do with Radiance and Ribbon?

Until Next Time...
