Secret Sisters, Summer Breeze, Beary Happy Birthday, Thangles, Crochet Man strikes again!

"Beary Happy Birthday" prints arrived this week.  The brightly colored balloons really pop against the black, light blue and white backgrounds.  

These are perfect for a birthday themed project.  

"Thangles" arrived this week!  These are great for making half square (and quarter square) triangles. 

They're very economical and take all the math out of making HST!.  

We received several different sizes as well as patterns, kits and a Block of the Month kit.

Charm packs are super popular for quick and easy projects .  I recently discovered "Little Charmers" patterns which are specifically designed for using them.  

Each pattern can be enlarged for the size you need for your project.  

"Summer Breeze III" pre-cuts sold out almost as fast as it came in so, we re-ordered.  The charm packs, layer cakes, jelly rolls and mini-charms came in this week.  YIPPPEE!!  

We're expecting fabric on the bolt of this collection to arrive any day.  These prints are by Sentimental Studios for Moda.  

Other new stuff that came in:  "Quilt Blocks" tote with handles, square bottom and zipper top; Thergonomic Hand-Aids; Quilt Tags and new AccuQuilt Go! cutter dies.  

4 7/8" triangles and 2 1/2" squares dies for Go! cutters. 

"Secret Sisters" has started off with a bang!  Pat, Kay, Dorothy and Sharon received gifts from their 'sister' yesterday.  

 

Crochet Man stopped by yesterday for "Show and Tell" of his latest creation....an afghan he designed and crocheted.  

He'll be doing a demo of this pattern on May 2nd during the shop hop so, bring a crochet hook and thread to learn how to make this gorgeous afghan.  

Stay tuned for details! 

Dorothy also brought in something for Show and Tell yesterday.  She bought the "Schoolhouse" die for her Go! cutter and appliqued onto different colored blue backgrounds.  

We have a soft spot in our heart for little red schoolhouses so, Dorothy almost didn't make it out of the shop with her quilt!  

Great job, Dorothy!  Keep up the good work!

 Josey, and her human (Rosemary), stopped by yesterday.  Josey wanted us to see her new jacket! How cute is this?  

Stop by anytime, Josey!  We love all four legged kids!

While she was here, Rosemary brought several projects for Show and Tell.  

We particularly love the last quilt which Rosemary made using batiks.  

Thanks, Rosemary for bringing Josey and sharing your gorgeous quilts.
