Looking Ahead

We’re counting down the days till our shop hop!  Mark your calendars for June 3-7th.  Each shop along the way will feature an original table topper and free pattern as well as the usual games, treats and prizes!  Just stop by the shop between June 3-7 to pick up the map and list of participating shops (no purchase necessary to receive the map and list of shops)

Also right around the corner is….summertime-  when we celebrate dads, grads and July 4th!  We have our favorite red, white and blue prints all gathered into one display.  Just looking at these gets me in the mood for picnics and BBQs!  

Fletcher Chevron Quilt Kit in Yellow and Gray

The kit is available for $72.00 at the shop or by ordering over the phone (801) 225-3123.

Knits, Knits and More Knits!

New in the shop – Knits!  We have dozens and dozens of new knit fabrics:

Plenty of stripes:

Dots:

Chevrons and patterns:

And to go with all of these great knits – we have idea sheets for you! 

I have a few skirts on my own to-do list.  I got the ideas (and the tutorials) from Pinterest.  Check out our “Knit Fabric Idea Board” to get some great ideas for yourself! 

Hemstitching Kits

 

Did you know that we have one of the valley’s largest selection of hemstitch kits?  Yes! 

I had to take four separate photos just to be able to show you our selection.

Each kit contains 1 blanket (36” x 41”) and 1 burp pad.  All are professionally hemstitched and ready for you to crochet the edge.

These make wonderful gifts for new moms.

The kits range in price from $19.98 to $29.98 per set and as you can see, we have pretty much anything you may be looking for.

Have you never tried hemstitching but would like to learn?  On our “tutorials, tips and tricks” pinterest board we have two links to help you.  One is a helpful video (I LOVE watching video tutorials!).  Click here to check it out!

Chance of Flowers

Chance of Flowers is one of our newest lines on the shelves – and it is BIG!  Just look at this:

and that’s not even all of the prints.  We couldn’t even fit them all on one shelf.  

This fabric line is big and it’s just pretty!

Along with the full line of prints, we also have those handy-dandy precuts available – jelly rolls, charm packs and layer cakes:

And here’s a freebie for you!  This is a Moda Bakeshop tutorial showing what you can do with a Chance of Flowers charm pack.  Click the photo to go to the tutorial.

It’s Shop Hop Time!

That’s right – it’s Shop Hop time again!  We’re making plans and getting ready for this year’s Beehive Shop Hop.  Mark your calendars and keep checking back here on the blog for updates and sneak peaks! 

By the way, one of the best ways to make sure you don’t miss a thing is to follow via email.  Enter your email address over on the right where it says “Follow by Email” and each time we write a blog post it will be automatically emailed to you.  That’s how I follow my favorite blogs and it sure is convenient! 

Jelly Roll Race quilt tutorial

This gorgeous quilt is one of our newest display quilts and guess what – this is a quick and easy (really!) quilt to make and it doesn’t even require a pattern.  This is called a Jelly Roll Race quilt and all you need is one jelly roll and one hour.  No kidding!

 

You can find a fantastic video tutorial here (from the Missouri Quilt Co).  Jenny is a great teacher, and takes you through each step.  By the end of the short video you’ll be ready to tackle this quilt yourself.

Now I know many of you have already made a Jelly Roll Race quilt and are ready for the next level, am I right?  Well, we have an entire Pinterest board dedicated to Jelly Roll Race quilt ideas.  Go and check it out  HERE.  You can see how the quilt changes depending on the fabrics used – the Christmas and patriotic ones are my favorite.  And I love the way some quilters have added colorful appliques to their quilts.  The one with the jumbo ric rac around the border is adorable too (by the way, we carry a large selection of jumbo ric rac at the shop!)

We’re big fans of the Jelly Roll Race quilt!  Stop by the shop this week, grab a jelly roll and before you know it you’ll have a completed quilt.  If you make one, we’d love to see it!
