New Stuff!

We get a shipment from UPS daily! It's like Christmas everyday here. So, here's what he's brought us lately. The new line from Jo Morton called Providence. Click here to view the fabric: http://andoverfabrics.com/OurCatalog/SingleGroup.asp?GroupName=Providence%20by%20Jo%20Morton The colors on the screen do not do this line justice! It's a little softer and prettier. Then, to go with all this Jo Morton fabric, we now have thread by Precensia that matches her fabric.

We got the new line called Metro Blue goes Green. Click here to view the fabric: http://www.marcusfabrics.com/cgi-bin/fabricgallery/gallery.cgi?Category=442 This fabric is going to make some great purses. Think messenger bags for high school and college students for Christmas gifts.

We have the new Baby Geniuses Grow Up line. It's really bright geometric fabric for babies. They say babies see contrast at first and not color. This line definitely has contrast!

We have a pretty fall pastel group called Natural Splender with a nice free pattern that we are kitting up today. Click here to view the fabrics: http://www.wilmingtonprints.com/Allfabrics.aspx?fcatid=46&name=Natural%20Splendor.

We have the third installment of the Wizard of Oz fabrics. Click here to view fabrics: http://www.quiltingtreasures.com/content4556.html.

We have new dish towels. Again, think quick Christmas gifts for teachers, co-workers and family gatherings.

That's just what we've received in the last week (except Wizard fabric came a couple weeks ago). So, if you don't stop in weekly, look what you miss!
