Book Search Help

I have a lovely customer who is looking for a book that is now out of print (actually I have lots of lovely customers but only one looking for a book). Beth is looking for Garden Party by Cynthia Tomasewski.

If you have a copy you no longer want and are happy to sell it to Beth, have seen one in an Australian Quilt Shop, please let me know and I will pass your details on to Beth.

Thanks

A Work in Progress - By My Hand Quilt

A little while ago I showed you this.  Susan was over on the weekend to choose the final fabrics for this beautiful quilt.  While she was laying out I had to peek over her shoulder with the camera.  So excuse the creases and floating threads, I just had the share with you how it is progressing.

I love all of those gorgeous letters.

 

and an overall view

When it is finished it will be the Quilt Fabric Delight’s version of By My Hand by Brenda Riddle of the Acorn Quilt Company.

The pattern is available here right now if you would like to dive into your stash and start straight away.

Now that we have finished choosing fabrics I will have to start working out the pricing and cutting requirements, so my question is this.  Would you prefer to purchase a kit for the full kit in one go or would you prefer a block of the month?

Bella Solids Club

I am so excited about this newest club - The Bella Solids Club.  We will be starting this one on the Monday the 14th of May 2012.  This will be a twelve (12) month club and you can choose from fat eighths, fat quarters or half metre bundles of six delicious Bella Solid fabrics.

I have been playing with these since they arrived recently, it is so exciting to see which print fabrics they work with as well as how good they look together or how adding just one of these solids to a bundle of fabrics will give that bundle such a lift.

As well as receiving the fabrics you will receive a set of little card each month with a sample of each the fabrics, the fabric name and colour code.  So you will have your own little Bella Solids Library and when you would like more you will know exactly what to order.  Of course you will also have your Quilt Fabric Delights Club Member card and be able to enjoy a 10% discount when you order more Bella Solids.

You can register for your choice of the various options here.
