WHAT’S NEW

Just let us know if there is something you read about and would like before your next visit - we will ship! The web page and email are not secure so please do not send credit card numbers or other personal information via these methods. Please write or call with what you would like or any questions you may have.

Do you like the great outdoors, or know someone who does, and like to knit! Have we got the book for you! It contains 20 projects for the great outdoors like marshmallow stick holders, padded shoe inserts, a woodsy washcloth and camp towel as well as socks, sweaters, hats, mittens and more. We love this great little book!

Six new colors of cotton sock yarn are on the way! Remember sock yarns aren’t just for socks! Their fun color combinations and ease of laundering make them a good choice for other items, too. Especially for babies!

Circles are everywhere on fabrics and in quilt patterns. This new book will take you step by step into new adventures of circles in quilting from small projects to full size quilts. Why is it that circles are so much fun? Maybe it’s because they remind us of bubbles and who doesn’t have fun playing with bubbles; no matter what your age! Drop your fears of curved seams and think bubbles - you’ll have so much fun!

The next featured new book is devoted entirely to mini quilts of dimensional flowers including sunflowers, hollyhocks, fuschias and more. These are fun little projects to take you away for a few hours, simply enjoy and then admire your finished quilt!

There are so many beautiful large print fabrics available and you just love them, but what to do with them? This book of big block quilts is perfect. Make the most of those large prints with large scale quilt blocks and you will have a large quilt in no time. These are fun quilts to make and enjoy!

Table runners! Can you ever have too many? Here’s another new book devoted just to table runners. They are like candy (or chips; you pick your snack, I’ll pick mine!) you can never stop at just one! There’s always a new pattern, new fabrics and new techniques to try, all while making these very useful little quilts. They brighten not only your table, but your shelves, mantles, dressers and chests, too. And everyone loves to receive a table runner gift. Let’s get started at one now!

No matter what form of stitching you enjoy, we all agree that it’s relaxing and soothing. Make your stitching time the ultimate in enjoyment by treating yourself to a cup of “Quilter’s Coffee”. It’s not just for quilters; the creators just happen to be quilters! A new shipment has just arrived. So far chocolate is still the #1 favorite, followed closely by Log Cabin Blend, Hazelnut, Creme Brulee’, French Vanilla and Butterscotch Toffee! (These are just a few of the flavors that are now in stock.)

Best Press, the terrific spray starch alternative, is now in stock in gallons. It's a great savings over purchasing the smaller sizes and you won't run out right in the middle of that next project with a deadline.

Those fun yo-yo maker gadgets now have a new family member! The Jumbo yo-yo maker makes 3 ½” yo-yos.

In our gift section, the moose and bears have arrived! These are made by the same wonderful people who make the beautiful pine tree shaped wind chimes. Now you can add to your home and yard décor with these unique and well made items. Select from a moose garden stake, wilderness garden mobile with a pine tree, moose and bear, moose and bear doorstops and a moose napkin holder or desk organizer.

We have many new designs of kits from Mill Hill. These kits combine counted cross stitch with bead stitching and delicate glass treasures. You can choose from ornaments, pins, and just right little pictures that measure 5” X 5”. The themes include holiday, gardening, camping, shore scenes and more. The best part is that everything is included in the kit!

Early Frost is a gorgeous new collection of fabrics which will especially appeal to the guys in your life. The main piece features a picture perfect 10 point buck standing by a stream. The smaller scenic pictures include pheasants, ducks, and a barn in the background. All of the animals are surrounded in trees of rich fall colors reflecting on the lakes and rivers with a golden sunrise (or sunset) in the background. Combine the panel with the terrific coordinates and you have all the makings of really beautiful quilts, shirts, pillowcases, curtains and more.

Felted Wool Fashions uses a variety of wool felting techniques to create all kinds of fun, useful and very warm wearables. Projects include vests, hats, scarves, slippers, tote bags, purses and more. There are great embellishing ideas, too!

In Pieced Applique you combine very simple piecing with applique to create almost any traditional quilt block with perfectly matched seams and triangle points every time. The book completely explains all the details with lots of pictures.
