Show and Tell; Stonehenge and "Save The Ta-Tas"

Tammy C. (who lives in the St. Louis area) was here during the shop hop on Friday.  She brought in this quilt she's making using batiks.  

Sweetness tried talking her into giving it to him but, she decided to take it with her.    

I forgot to ask the name of the pattern so, we're calling it "gorgeous".  

Thanks, Tammy for bring in this wonderful quilt.  
  

Sue L. was also here during the shop hop.  She made this quilt for her great granddaughter who will arrive sometime in November.  

We love the piano keys borders and the bright vibrant colors.  

Cathy W. brought in the quilt she entered in the Springfield Quilt Show in September.  Her quilt won the "Viewer's Choice" award.  Wow!  

This is a fabulous quilt complete with prairie point borders.

"Secret Sisters" is in full swing again.....Vicki W's s/s left a note for her to pick out the charm pack of her choice as a birthday present (October 2nd). Vicki is a huge Kansas Troubles fan so, she chose one of the new "Paisley Park" charm packs.  Happy Birthday, Vicki.

I love gizmos and gadgets!  The latest gizmo we received is called, "Seam Fix".  It's a spiffy seam ripper with a grooved rubberized top that 'catches' the threads when the ripping has stopped!  

We've sold out of these three times so, we now have a case of these nifty devices!  

Feel free to ask for a demo.  We'll be happy to show you how it works!  

We finally received the "Paisley Park" layer cakes. YIPPEE!!  The other pre-cuts arrived a while back but, now that the layer cakes are here, we now have all of them:  layer cakes, charm packs, jelly rolls and the mini-charms. This is the latest collection by Kansas Troubles for Moda.   

We received three more bolts of "Stonehenge" by Northcott this week.  These are from their "Stars and Stripes II" collection, designed with "Quilts of Valor" in mind.

We have several other bolts of this collection in the shop but really love these new additions.  

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, sometimes referred to as "Save The Ta-Tas" month.

Oliso released these pink irons to help promote awareness.  For every pink iron sold, Oliso will donate $10 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.  

We're very honored to have these limited edition pink irons in the shop.  Since they are the limited edition version, when they're gone, they're gone. 

We love it when four legged kids come to the shop. Savi, a toy Australian Shepard from Hannibal, MO., and her humans stopped by during the shop hop.  

Come back anytime, Savi.  Hopefully I won't forget your drink of water the next time!
