Kansas Troubles books; Scrappy Quilts coloring book; Secret Siblings; Mr. Chewie


Everyone knows how much I love Kansas Troubles fabrics.  The truth is, I love anything from this very talented designer.   

This week, we received her new books:  "Huggable Quilts"; "Crazy for Minis" and "Bees 'N Blooms".  

Each book features different methods of making quilts featuring, of course, Kansas Troubles fabrics using funky layering techniques, applique and piecing.   

Regardless of which fabrics you use, these books are full of inspiring ideas that turn into stunning quilts.

The adult coloring book craze shows no signs of slowing down so, we've added "Scrappy Quilts" coloring book to our selection.  

This coloring book is so fun.  It has over 30 different quilt patterns to color and has perforated pages for easy removal.  



The scissors I use the most are a pair of gold handled Gingher's I gave myself as a birthday present.  

I use them in the shop, I use them when I'm making a project, they're my favorite scissors in the world.  

Everyone who sees them wants them.  Well, I finally found some and they arrived this week. Now, you too can have your own pair of gold handled Ginghers.  

These are 8" Dressmaker Shears with a real leather sheath.  YIPPEE!!  

Happy cutting!  


Pat was among those of us in attendance at "Adult Coloring Book Club" yesterday.  

Pat decided to start with the "forward" page of her "Nature" coloring book, taking it one page at a time! 



Sharon's "secret sibling" gave her and adult coloring book for February.  Just in time for "coloring book club"!  


Kay recently finished the "Amazing Grace" top she'll get quilted then donate to the cancer center in Joplin. 

She used the piano key method for the borders.  We love how Kay transformed this panel into something that will help others suffering with cancer.  

Thanks, Kay, for sharing this with us.    





Debbie C. and Mr. Chewie came for a visit yesterday. 

Chewie checked out the shop but really preferred being held by his Mom.  

Thanks for bringing your human, Chewie.  Come back when you can.
