Take a look at all this talent!!! Good Job Girls!!!
I am hoping to see piles of book boxes when I come home from Hershey/Long Beach travels…Have you ordered one yet! I have to say it is the prettiest book we have ever done…can’t wait for you to see the 60 all color pages!!!
Our actual quilts are at the machine quiltlers but here are the digital files….I will repost with the quilted quilts as they come back..
This first quilt is “Penny Candy”…We all remember going to the five & dime store and getting our brown paper bag full of those little sugar snorkels! My favorite were the red coins!!! These little blocks are so easy and fun to stitch! We all here are in LOVE with tiny piecing… and well if you are like one of us this one will do it for ya….Quilt finishes at 70×90 and our kit will be $170.00 with pattern and binding. Pattern only is $9. Backing will be sold separately at $55, and will be discounted by 20% if purchased at the same time…Pre-Order yours HERE Your order will not be processed until it ships in November.
The next quilt is named after my Mom…who loves herself some tulips! This year she had old wash buckets full of them at The Gathering…Theresa’s Tulips (51″x68″) is made up of cute 6″ tulip blocks using the fabrics in Floral Gatherings, Seasonal Little Gatherings and Old Glory Gatherings for added colors for the tulips…Our kits with pattern is $165 and can be pre ordered HERE. Pattern only is $9. Backing is also sold separately for $44 and will be discounted 20% off if you purchase them at the same time. Your order will not be processed until it ships in November. We also have a Aurifil 50wt. thread kit for hand or machine appliqué. Thread kit is specialty priced at $37.80 for a short time. Regular priced at $42 To order click HERE
The final quilt is called Square Dance….this quilt also has some tiny piecing but is only 9 blocks. Again another great design from an antique quilt from my collection. We also will be showing a Black version of this quilt soon too! The quilt kit and pattern is $125. Pattern only is $9. Backing is sold separately for $55 and if ordered with the kit we will discount the backing 20% . Pre order- HERE Your order will not be processed until it ships in November.
I would like to show you the next Primitive Gatherings/Moda Fabric collaboration…Floral Gatherings!
Now I know you are thinking WHAT? This is from Primitive Gatherings???? Well now let me confess…I love these colors!!! They are all historical and you know I love Civil War fabrics…now we have done a little tweaking..thats all…we darkened the shirtings to make them look aged….As a shop owner I also know what I cannot buy…like great reds and greens..Cheddar for sure….and then there are the sweet yellows and double pinks….so I’ll let the fabric do the talking here…The first four are 108″ wide backs that is why they are shown twice…Your shop owners are seeing this now…go visit them and ask them if they ordered it? Tell them to order lots cause I know you will buy it from them!!!
Then…there are the Floral Gatherings Shirtings…As a Moda designer we have to pick 40 skus for our lines…so things are consistant for the pre-cuts…but I really wanted these shirtings…they just were way too good to let go by the wayside….I really wanted to beg for these, like really hard…but instead I just rolled them up and attached a notes saying something like…We all should be “COMMITTED” if we do not do something with these…and left it with that…OK maybe I didn’t use the word committed but you get the idea…so I got a call saying I could do a happy dance because they are going to print 20 of them!!!
This was great news!!! So here are the 20…Think of the possibilities! Shirtings with pink, cheddar, green!!! Whooo hoo…it was hard for me not to control myself….I am sure you all will agree here…
See the projects from these fabrics in the next post!!!
