New version of Simply 9 using Diamond Textiles' fabrics

If the forecast holds true, we may be snowed in Saturday and possibly again next Weds.  We have learned to take weather predictions with a grain of salt.....but to always have a project on hand just in case we can't make it out for a day or two.

If you're signed up for our $10 block of the month, Fairytale Cottages, you should have received your first block by now  We were delayed a few days in shipping because our sweet mom was in the hospital with a respiratory infection. She's home now and doing very well.  If you're on the list and haven't received your block, please let us know so we can research the reason.

For more info on the Fairytale Cottages block of the month, please visit our website https://www.sewgracefulquilting.com/ and then call us at 479-372-7403 to sign up.
Our shipment of Quiltmania magazines arrived. This issue is packed with great patterns and lots of photos from the Houston Quilt Festival and antique quilts of the British Isles.  It also contains the first part of a mystery quilt by Jen Kingwell.  Usually the issue containing the first pattern of a mystery quilt sells out quickly so let us know if we can reserve a copy for you.  $13.99

If you're on auto ship, Debby has processed your order.  If you're not and would like to be, please let us know. 
We also received our shipment of Primitive Quilts & Projects magazine.  17 projects - all for only $9.99

We love the quilt on the magazine cover; however, we want to make it in primitive colors.....so much fun to take a pattern and make it primitive.
We often get requests for quilts for men.  While this quilt isn't just for men, we think it's a great option for someone who is looking for something less feminine and cutesy.  It's made with Diamond Textiles using our pattern, Simply 9.  It's super simple and quick to make.

Your $64.95 kit includes all the fabric and binding to make the quilt.  The pattern is sold separately for $8.  The quilt finishes 64" x 80"; however, we will be happy to help you select borders or additional fabrics if you'd like to make it larger.  We also have lots of great fabrics for the back and would be happy to help you choose backing fabric.  Backing fabric is $9.95 per yard. 
We have another "last one" kit to share.  This one is perfect for that special friend in your life.  Your $9.95 kit includes the pattern, background fabric and fabric for the heart.  Once it's gone, it's gone so don't delay in letting us know that you want it. 
Stay warm during the Arctic blast that is coming this weekend.  See you soon!

Darlene and Debby
