I've fallen behind posting pictures to the blog! The past two weeks have been a blur so, please forgive my tardiness!
Gitta brought in this fabulous lampshade she made using "Mimi" prints. How cute is this?
We love to see what our customers make using fabric from the shop. It's usually quilts, table runners, etc.......but this is our first lampshade!
Thanks, Gitta for sharing your latest creation with us! We love it!

Betty made this quilt for her 83 year old mom whose battling breast cancer for the second time.
She used "Lady Slipper Lodge" prints by Holly Taylor.
Great job, Betty! We love this quilt and know it will bring comfort to your mom during this very difficult time.

Karen brought in the t-shirt quilt she made using t-shirts from concerts she's attended: Alan Jackson, Randy Travis and many more!
What a great way to commemorate good times (and good music)!
October was "Breast Cancer Awareness" month so, anyone who wore pink to the shop received a free gift.
Each week's free gift changed so, it could be a free fat quarter, pattern or magazine of your choice.
Each week's free gift came with one itty bitty string attached......everyone had to agree to have their picture taken (with their 'pinkness') so I could post it to the blog.
"Thank You" to everyone who participated! We hope you enjoy your free stuff and don't forget to "Save the Ta-Tas".

Thanks, Rosemary for sharing your projects (and spending part of your anniversary) with us!

Karen's "Bow Tucks Tote" class was a huge success. This class filled up fast and a good time was had by all!
Some totes were being made as gifts so, not everyone wanted theirs posted to the blog. We totally understand!
The willing souls who weren't making their totes as gifts are pictured below!
