Welcome! This blog is going to attempt to involve a place to share ideas, techniques, comments, projects and fun.

We are a small town, family owned shop. We are excited to open our doors to the Internet and to happily try new things! Please join us in our upcoming adventures of blogging the treasures of our store!

We’re STILL getting in new fabrics every week

Latest arrivals are Coffee Cat Cafe and Cafe Au Lait.  Both are great prints for coffee lovers. 

Redwork Renaissance is a new redwork collection from Moda.  Very reminiscent of the original redwork that is making a comeback.

Holy Smokes, Batman!  Joker’s Back!  Yep… we have awesome Batman – Joker’s Back fabric in the store right now!  Check it out online or  come on in.  There are several coordinates avaialble.

Also just in from Moda is Fairy Tale Friends, Felicity, and Tropicana Batiks.  Moda fabrics have a quality that is hard to beat.  Stop by and touch a bolt.  Each one is like holding a bundle of joy! 

We also have in new Moda Jelly Rolls Good Fortune and Tropicana Batiks, plus some Tropicana Batiks charm packs and a Twirl layer cake.  Kind of sounds like we’re turning into a bakery, doesn’t it?  Well, it’s all pretty sweet!

* HOW TO’s

* PROJECTS

*NEW CLASSES -  The Jelly Roll Race on February 4th was a blast!  We’ll get some pictures posted soon.  Chris was the winner of a $50 gift certificate to The Quilt Nest.  After she was sure of her lead she shared her technique of feeding the strips through her sewing machine.  Then her bobbin shut her down for a bit, but she still managed to finish first in 50 minutes!  We’re thinking of holding another race in March or April, so if you’d like to create a generous size lap quilt in less than an hour, call and sign up.  We just need 8 racers!  All you need is a jelly roll of forty 2 1/2″ strips, your sewing maching, thread and a couple of extra bobbins.  Once the race starts you don’t want to run out of thread… in the machine or your bobbin! There is a $10 teacher’s fee, PLUS you get a discount on the purchase of your jelly roll that is needed for this class.   Call the store to sign up (360.274-4663) or come in.  You have to pay the $10 class fee when you sign up in order to guarantee your spot in the race.  Supplies needed for the race:  jelly roll of 2.5″ strips, sewing machine and general sewing supplies, rotary cutter, ruler (optional).   And of course, snacks are always welcome! :-)
