DID YOU TAKE THE PLEDGE?

Did you take the pledge, the pledge to not buy any new fabric and use from your stash this year?  How long did that last?   It was just a matter of days for me.  When I saw all the new, beautiful fabrics in at the Attic Window Quilt Shop I forgot all about my promise.  So get ready now to add to your stash. I’m going to show you more irresistible fabrics.  Above is the new Jet Black line from Exclusively Quilters.
Chelsea by RJR
Urban Textures by Andover Fabrics.
Ahoy Matey by Windham Fabrics.
There is something for everyone.  Above is A Hint of Print by Marcus.
These are a must have for me.  Radiant Gradients by Hoffman Fabrics.
I’m getting fabric in each of these colors to make more stars like I made here. (Scroll down to the yellow/orange star on the black background.)
This is Follies by Windham Fabrics and is the first group that caught my eye.  They were still wrapped in plastic, but the blue is so luscious I couldn’t resist. 

The shop has a wide variety of fabrics, from 30s to Civil War, to batiks, to brights and more.   Stop in at the shop and don’t worry about a thing.  Your husband said you could buy all the fabric you want!  ;0)

DON’T FORGET: 
  • HEART OF WINTER TOUR is on February 7th.   The bus will take you to four different shops.  Lunch and dinner are included.  It’s not too late to sign up.
  • Due to the Heart of Winter Tour, FIRST SATURDAY SAMPLER moved in February ONLY from Saturday, February 7th. To Saturday, February 14th.  This will not interfere with Happy Scrappers as they will meet immediately after Sampler
ON ANOTHER NOTE:
  • Diary of a Quilter has a tutorial for a peppermint pinwheel Dresden block.  I have a lot of leftover striped fabrics from a previous project and am going to try them out on this block.
Until next time,

Stay Calm! Stay Kind! Stay Positive!

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.
