Just arrived, Mary Ellen's Best Starch. This was ordered because of customer request. It has only been getting rave reviews. This starch leaves no white residue and just has a hint of scent. It also is available in unscented. If you like the look of yarndyes, but don't like the looseness and wobbleliness of it this is great for stablizing the fabric.
We received Howard Marcus' Collection for a Cause: Heritage 1846, and it is on the shelves. Moda has put out the Collection for a Cause to support causes that are dear to them and others. This collection was taken from a 19th century antique quilt. It is gorgeous! The proceeds from this collection, Heritage, will be going to Gilda's Club which gives support to those going through cancer. We have a select group of fabrics from this line along with jellyrolls and layer cakes. Stop by and see them for yourself, they are beautiful.
Civil War Crossings by Barabara Brackman for Moda. Wonderful reproduction fabrics. We have layercake, jellyrolls, and a delightful kit available.
This Christmas line is Woodland Greetings by Sentimental Studios for Moda. Nice traditional prints in this line.
Here is a nice and bright Christmas line called Smores by Me & My Sister Designs for Moda. We have layercake ( 10 inch squares of the line) packs and jellyrolls available too. We carry a pattern especially designed for the layercakes of this line.
Blanc Et Noir by Marie Osmond is already a hit here at the Shoppe. It hardly had time to hit the shelf and people were buying it. There is a free pattern available
Plantation 3 is in! This line by Nancy Gere for Windham is a lighter/softer Civil War line. We have teamed it up with some of the co-ordinating fabrics we have in the Shoppe. So much is possible here! It has some great light background pieces.
Moda's Hemming House is here! We have the Moda to Go tins that uses this line. Moda to Go tins consist of a Jelly Roll of the line and an exclusive pattern to the tin. You will need to buy some extra fabric for the quilt, all of which we have in the Shoppe.
Natural Garden by Holly Taylor for Moda is in the Shoppe. We selected the red colorway which is great for your redwork.
Here is the Take 5 quilt with some of the different kits we have available. This quilt takes only five fabrics and five hours to piece the quilt top! What a quick and pretty pattern to make.
Also available is a number of different 8 fat quarters bundled so you make the Crazy Eights quilt. A variation of the Crazy Eights pattern is shown inthe Daydream line pictured below.
Here are some labels on fabric. This is by Moda. As you can see you have a wide selection of styles.
Here is a new notion that will help you with your rotary cutting! When I ordered this I thought it was going to be smaller, but now that it is in and I tried it out I like the size as it keeps the ruler stable as you cut. This tool is applied to your acrylic rotary ruler with suction, and boy is that suction strong! If you are using a small ruler you can just set the handle using the dark purple levers to have suction on one side only. It is comfortable to use and you have less stress on your hand as you are cutting. With your hand on the handle you don't have to worry about cutting yourself either! It also makes it easier to lift up your ruler and move it to the next cutting position. I think this is a great new notion for the quilter. Also,if you have children that are quilting this would be a great safety notion to have in your quilting room as it will keep little fingers away from harm's way if you have decided to allow your child to rotary cut or are thinking about allowing them to try rotary cutting.
Here is Climbing Jacob's Ladder, designed by Barbara Brackman for Moda. It is a Civil War line that is rich in color. The sample quilt was made from a free pattern (Catch Me If You Can) on Moda's website.
Urban Gardens is a soft modern line designed by Erin McMorris for Free Spirit. This would work up wonderfully in purses, totes, aprons and pj's too.
Madeira by Blackbird Designs for Moda is delightful and great for any needlecrafter. Once again they incorporate the sampler in the line. We have Moda TO GO kits available (the exclusive pattern is pictured by itself) as well as the charm packs and some bolted fabric (of which I made the sample from the Hooked on Charms book).
Just in, Heirloom Gardens, a line by Marie Osmond for Quilting Treasures. We have a kit available for the quilt.
The Charm packs of Shangri-la, a new line by 3 Sisters for Moda, have arrived. We will be having a limited number of the new Moda-to-Go (Jellyrolls and an exclusive pattern in a special tin) available as soon as the bolts come in to complete the quilt.
Here is another line that has Charm packs, Renewal by Brannock & Patek for Moda. It only took one pack and some marble fabric plus border fabric to make this quilt.
