I'm having a ball fixing up the news store and getting some cool projects in for us!
I love this little Daisy table runner so much..
... that I did another one for fall! This great fall mull fabric, some of my Nikki and Sweetbriar fabics made up this fast fall runner. The binding that I included is the chocolate/blue polka dot fabric.
Price is $15.99 on the kit page

Designer/Celebrity Interviews
Are you enjoying the Designer interviews at my blog? I so love getting to know them better. Even for my friends I still don't know everything about them!
Since I've always wanted to make Sue Spargo's Victoria Sewing tote, I decided the day before her interview to get one made up and offer a limited number of kits!! It turned out so darn KOOT!!!
I still have a couple left, so hurry over to get one!

Fall is in the Air... well almost
Here in Virginia fall is ALMOST in the air... well... maybe not at 85 degrees but it's in the stores for sure! And we know it does take just a few minutes to make up the perfect fall project, so let's get started! (PS - Remember to click for either larger or MORE photos at the webstore)
Another all time favorite fall book from Need'l Love. With AMAZING projects. The 16 different projects in this book are all fabulous and you can do them in all cotton, all wool or even mix it up. Don't rug hook? Use the design for a quilt... it's that flexible. See details on the buy page
Buy at the book page http://patsloan.biz/autumnthreadsbyneedllove.aspx
The Witches Gathering from Country Threads just makes me smile! Do you see they are GREEN? LOVE that! On the page I have links to fabrics in stock that would work for this project... nothing needs more than 1/2 yd.. woot!

This little Harvest Pumpkin stitchery by Crabapple hill is so delightful! With all my favorite fall words and images.... don't forget your pearl cotton thread!

This is such a beautiful pincushion..and the tag? It's a needlecase! That Crabapple hill is so clever. Do you have some brown velvet... don't you think that would make an awesome acorn?

Shopping Cart Features
I'm better able to organize things in the shopping cart now. So when you go to an option like FABRIC or NOTIONS, you'll now see a set of boxes that are organized by type for easier viewing. Just click the box of your choice to see what is in that category.
I'm working on a photo for each box.
You can also search by any word or combo... like 'blue' or 'peach' or 'cottage thread'. Then you'll have a custom list of items. Search box is on the top right under 'Quilt More Have fun!'

A Thought and a Quote
Once again I am amazed and thrilled when my friends remember ME while on their vacations!!! yep...
Sue bought me this AWESOME napkin, which I think is going into that collage of a Birthday quilt I'm planning. (note the word PLANNING)
And Patty took photos of a cupcake place!!! I want to MOVE IN.. really.
And If you love altered art you MUST visit Patty's blog.. she does amazing work, a true 'magpie' http://bitze.wordpress.com/
I get such NICE gifts when they travel... although I didn't see any REAL cuppies appear... mmmm...
Smooches to you girls!!!
And a PERFECT quote for my friends
Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much.
