Have you see the new fabric from Riley Blake???  So you Wanna be a Cowboy is just too darling!  Check it out!

Lucky us, we live in the Midwest!  I think the snow is finished falling and we ended up with 11 additional inches!  It truly is beautiful outside and it's nice to be cozy and warm inside!  Hopefully we can get out tomorrow in order to start the Stuff Your Stash Contest!!  Woo Hoo!

A beautiful new collection from Wilmington called Poetic Blossoms has arrived in the shop!  It brings a bit of spring to us and even though winter just started for us, we are looking forward to spring!  The colors are deep pink, light pink, a sagey (is that a word?) green and cream.  I am thinking tote at this point but perhaps a Valentine project?  Take a look at this new line and I am sure you will have a few ideas too!

                

     Wouldn't this be charming made from the Poetic  Blossom collection?  You can find the pattern for this tote in the February 2010 issue of American Patchwork and Quilting! 

   

Wally has done a great job searching for his new Weekender project!  He is a smart little kitty and knows that after the rectic Holiday rush we will need a bit of time to just ourselves!  His new project 5 Ways to Fix A Chicken is the purrfect project to work on and just relax!  All the projects are easy and will be fun for you to use!  The apron and hot pads will be well used in my kitchen!  Check out the whole collection in Wally's spot!

Our Annual Stuff Your Stash Contest & Sale will be here soon!  Everyday prizes, games and big discounts on lots of items!  Besure to watch for the newsletters......

Buttons are the purrfect embellishment and have have just recieved some of the cutest ever!  Little flowers and gum drop buttons that would look just darling on one of the new Indygo Junction children's pajama designs!  These buttons are machine washable, very durable and absolutely unique.  You can find them on our web site in the Button Section!  

These cute buttons come in a variety of colors!  Pick one of your favorites!

Look at the details on these buttons!

Now wouldn't they look adorable on something like this???? 

I love stitchery!  I am always looking for new and improved tools for my stitchery work.  So far my favorite are the mini stitchery scissors, the String thing, Scarlet Today needles (best ever!) and Thread Heaven (a MUST have).  I find that using these tools truly make my projects shine but one of the best things out there is the Pellon EasyKnit Stabilizer.  I have used this for years and it keeps your stitches smooth and straight!  It irons on so you don't have to worry about it moving.  You can leave it on and complete your project, it just gives a bit more extra stability.  So now you have it, the best tools for your stitchery projects!  So pick a project (check out Bird Brains new Christmas designs) and get started!  Need help?  Just give Nanci a call at 866-422-9292 or email her at nanci@quiltedkitty.com!
