Pre-Quilted Fabric Spotlight

We like to think that we're pretty well-known for our pre-quilted fabric--a great shortcut for sewing bags and other home dec items. And of course, when we hear about someone using this specialty fabric, we love to pass it along to you, our blog readers!

Judy Hansen, owner of Quilt Shop of Deland and one of our designers, recently shared this photo from a recent retreat. These ladies used the Sebago Tote pattern from Aunties Two and our pre-quilted fabric to make themselves brand-new colorful totes!

What a great looking group!



Want to see some of our pre-quilted fabric? Here's a sampling.

Ask for both the Sebago Tote pattern and our pre-quilted fabrics at your local quilt shop! 
(And then send us a photo of your tote!)

We had so much fun sharing the bright and summery mix and match prints the other day that we're back with more of the same, this time featuring some of our more home dec style prints, both those with a traditional and a contemporary feel. 

Let us know what you think of these!

Celebrating the Southwest

Have you ever visited Mesa Verde, Colorado, home of the ancestral Pueblo people? Mesa Verde, which means "green table" in Spanish, is now a National Park in southwestern Colorado and was the home of the Pueblos from A.D. 600 to 1300. The National Park includes nearly 5,000 archaeological sites and 600 cliff dwellings.
(Find more about Mesa Verde here and the National Park here.)

If climbing ladders into cliff dwellings isn't on your summer agenda, we have an alternate suggestion for achieving that Mesa Verde feel:

The pattern uses our Southwest-inspired new collection of the same name. Prints of beautiful woven tapestries intermix with pottery and cool coordinating tonals.
See the entire collection here and ask for it at your local quilt shop.
