Looking for a last-minute gift for a mother you know? These two small totes from Kona Bay are made with hot/cold insulating materials AND a zipper on top. Great for lunches on the go! :)
Today's shipments also include some glorious newbie bolts of fabric and some old favorite notions. First, the fabric - bolts and bolts of more Stonehenge mottled prints from Northcott:
Another new treat from Northcott are PRE-CUT STRIPS of STONEHENGE:
We ordered a number of sets of these lovelies - Metallic is the set that came in today (more soon, I trust:). Imagine what you can make with these strips!!
Now, those of you who are familiar with Rose Hahn and her Unit Assembly methods for Applique will know what this stuff is:
Stable Magic is great for foundation piecing, too - you don't tear it out. When you wash your quilt, the binder in these paper-like sheets dissolves and leaves a bit of short-staple cotton fluff to mix in with the batting of your quilt. Useful in other stitch-and-flip techniques, too! :)
Here is a pattern that you should all be able to respond to, living as we do here in Maryland along the eastern seaboard:
This, too, was designed by Rose Hahn and is the best crab pattern I have personally ever seen. :) Libbie is (justifiedly) annoyed with me - I sold our sample of this pattern a couple of months ago (thinking we would not be carrying it any more). (blush) Now I have to find fabrics and have a new crabby sample made up for display. (ducking)
Come in and take a look at the new goodies soon!
:) Linda
