After Inventory Specials

There are still lots of ‘buy one get one free’ bolts, fat quarters and panels to choose.  New fabric is arriving so we need to make space. 

Andover’s ‘Ginger Rose’ Block of the Month

There are a few quilts left.  Cost is $22 for the pattern and $20 per month for 8 months for the fabric.  I changed to borders because I really like the black rose fabric and wanted to see more of it.  If you wanted a bigger quilt you could keep the gold border the size of the pattern and add the black rose fabric.
Classes for this block of the month are Wednesday February 22 or Saturday February 18 at 10 am.

February Classes

‘Everything  Goes Bag’               
Friday February 24 and Saturday 25
$25 plus pattern and materials

This ‘Among Brenda’s Quilts’ is a favourite.  This large bag has foam batting to give it stand-up shape and protection for your techie devises inside the pockets.  On day one we will make the outer bag and on day two we will finish the insides and put it all together.

‘Adding Borders’               Book Your Date                 $20

Book your own class when you need to add borders to a quilt.  Let us teach you to make borders that lie flat and straight.   Since we see quilts that people bring for the longarm quilting service at the store we see that there are lots of quilters who would benefit from some help.

New Fabric

Café Au Lait by Windham:  free pattern on their website
This fabric is a more contemporary version of coffee cups and silver spoons in gray and browns.  Great for kitchen décor on the trendier side.

Bridgeport by Jo Morton for Andover
Another great line of Jo fabric with lots of black and tan prints.

Always and Forever by Deb Strain for Moda
Great for Valentine’s Day!  We have the panel and a co-ordinating pink and a red.  I made a wallhanging with the panel.  It is quilt-as-you go and two sided so it can hang in the window and show on both sides.  I’d be happy to teach you how to do it if you call and book a time.  You could make 2 hangings instead; one for you and a gift.

Green Tea Batiks by Timeless Treasures is on order and due to arrive in February.  You can see it at the Timeless Treasures website and I will blog about it when it arrives.

There is always other new stuff and I will try to write about it on the blog.  Google ‘Shirley at The Marsh Store’.
