A SALE, A PROJECT, AND NEW FABRIC

Isn’t this eye-catching? And interesting too. Barb made this sample for the Attic Window Quilt Shop. It is a quilt-as-you-go project. When I heard how it was made I became intrigued because it's different from what I'd heard about other quilt-as-you-go methods. I’m hoping she’ll teach a class on this one. Look for it in the upcoming newsletter.

This is a closer look. I love these vibrant fabrics, don’t you?

Speaking of fabrics, what about these above? They are from the Seen On Halloween line from Maywood Studios. I can’t wait to include these cats in my next Halloween project.
.
SALE!! The Attic Window Quilt Shop is having a special fabric sale on Friday, July 2nd, Saturday, July 3rd, and Monday, July 5th. A select group of sale fabrics will be $4/yard. You won’t want to miss this. Get there early before the selection is picked over.

Make it Perfect has a cute tutorial for a peek-boo-toy sack. You don't have to open the bag to see what is inside. Great way to organize those toys or whatever you need to organize.

Until next time,
Caroll

More cute Halloween fabrics! I really want to try the quilt-as-you-go technique. I have one of Betty Cotton's books and have wanted to try it. Again, the time issue! :-)

Generosity has no bounds. Above are the women in the Quilts For Kids group at the Attic Window Quilt Shop. Left to right, Henrietta, Phyllis, Nancy, Carol, Karen. These women donate their time, fabric, money once a month to make quilts for kids who have cancer.
