The Spokane Show

What a busy few days it's been setting up for the Spokane show!  You'll see that the booth comes with only a concrete floor and and black curtains.  It involves many hours of getting ready to make it feel like my store.  I thought you'd like to see the progression of unloading all these goodies from my shop!  


Stop by the fairgrounds all you local quilters!  I'd love to see you! (And see if you recognize anyone from the very last picture!)

Hats Off to the Grandkids

Who can resist these darling kiddos in their hats? These are shots of my three grandkids who live in the midwest.  The newest one is only five weeks old and  already a fashion diva! The pattern for the hat is "Jack and Jill" by Izzy and Ivy Designs. What a great way for my daughter to spend her maternity leave...sewing!   

It's a Twister!

Meet the new twister!  Never tried it before?  Check out this tutorial from Moda Lisa.  Pre-order now for delivery in mid-July.  We sold out of the first shipment in just ONE day, so get your order in early.  Find this new tool in the Notions section of our online catalog or here.
