We
are moving to the time of the year when the grass should be crunchy
underfoot. Instead, we are mowing every 5-7 days. We're aren't
complaining though -- these cooler temps have felt so nice. With cooler
temps, comes the thought of fall. This week we want to share a couple
of projects to get you in the mood for fall.
As many of you
know, we specialize in applique quilts but occasionally enjoy making a
pieced quilt. "Humble Hands" was such a fun quilt to make. The Bears
Paw blocks are super quick and easy and playing with beautiful fabric in
rich shades of red, gold, orange, brown and green is even more fun.
Your $99.94 kit includes the Quiltmania magazine with the pattern,
fabric for the top, borders and binding. The quilt finishes 58 1/2" x
70".
Since we associate crows with fall, we thought it was appropriate to
include the "Crow" pincushion kit in the newsletter this week. The kit
is marked as a pincushion but everyone is using pin cushions as bowl
fillers these days. Your "Crow" kit includes the pattern, fabric for
the top, wool for applique, cotton backing fabric and the key. Finishes
3 1/2" x 5 1/2". $8.95
Please note - we buy these kits made by the designer so fabrics and keys will vary with each kit. |

The last kit we'd like to share has been around for a while but it's
definitely worth mentioning. We're sure many of you can relate to the
sentiment expressed on the "Wicked Chickens" small quilt. Your $16.95
kit includes the pattern, background cotton, wool for applique, backing
fabric, binding and buttons. Please note that some wool and fabric will
vary from the photograph.
The patterns suggests finishing it
as a pincushion but we chose to finish ours to display on a 6" Ackfeld
stand. Let us know if we can reserve a stand for you $19.95. |

Our shipment of Simply Vintage magazines is on the way. We can't wait
to see what the fall issue holds. Of course, we will share contents
next week.
See you soon!
Darlene and Debby
